This Summer Will Be Different (2024)
Carley Fortune
"What a dreamy and sexy summer novel. Carley Fortune knows how to tug at your heart. This is a book filled with great food, lots of charm, and a young woman navigating the tricky question of how she wants to live her life."
Worry (2024)
Alexandra Tanner
"What a biting and brilliant novel. I couldn't put it down. Worry writes toward truth in the time of the internet, it uncovers the absolute horror of 'buying things,' and it does what novels are meant to do: hauntingly display the dark and familiar sides of human behavior. Worry is the best thing I've read in a very long time."
Idlewild (2023)
James Frankie Thomas
"dlewild toes the delicate line between darkly biting and empathetic. It's loud and funny and raucous, and yet, it sneaks up on you. With truths about living in the 2000s, the searing pain of looking back, and the absolute madness of having a best friend, James nails the heartbreak of being a theater kid and the humiliation of growing up."
