Matthew Quick recommends
Everything was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt (2026)
Ben Reeves
"Reeves repeatedly takes us to life's most terrifying knife-edge, heartening us with the steady poetry of everyday life. This clever and vivid book made me fall in love with our collective ephemerality. I literally said, 'Wow,' about halfway through. The ending left me speechless."
The Last Letters of Sally and Walter (2026)
Cammie McGovern
"With love, wit, grace, and the seasoned hand of a gifted storyteller, McGovern invites us to be unashamed of our beautifully ephemeral and ever-evolving humanness. This big-hearted book will make you believe in people again. It just might make you believe in yourself again too."
The Savage, Noble Death of Babs Dionne (2024)
Ron Currie
"A furious page-turner that kept me up way past my bedtime, a beautiful hymn to the lingering ghosts of Maine's French-Canadian past, and a harrowing meditation on what it means to assimilate into the great American experiment. The authenticity reaches up off the page and grabs you with two hands. Ron Currie is a literary beast."
