Sarah Read recommends

The Poorly Made and Other Things (2025)
Sam Rebelein
"In the Rebelverse, hauntings get under your skin. Like a sliver, burrowing. A sliver of bloodstained wood--one of many, spreading like a contagion. You didn't really want to leave Renfield County, did you? Good. Because it has so much more to give. This is the laugh at the funeral we all need right now."
