Ali Rosen recommends

Have a Great Summer (2026)
Francesca Cocchi
"rancesca Cocchi's Jersey Shore-set novel is a gorgeous tale of second chances wrapped in a warm breeze of nostalgia. It somehow manages to put us straight back to the wipeout of teenage awkwardness while then forcing us to get back up on the surfboard and embrace the joy. This is the kind of book you go back to over and over again when you need an injection of summer."

Daddy Issues (2025)
Kate Goldbeck
"BUT DADDY, I LOVE IT! Kate Goldbeck has written another book that demands to be read in one perfect sitting. Complicated, sexy, funny, and affirming . . . I wanted it to go on forever."

The Eight Heartbreaks of Hanukkah (2025)
Jean Meltzer
"Jean Meltzer gives us the most perfectly Jewish twist on A Christmas Carol and shows us that second chances can come in the most unexpected ways."
