Alyssa Songsiridej recommends
The Adult (2023)
Bronwyn Fischer
"Bronwyn Fisher's The Adult smolders with barely contained longing. Natalie's voice--restrained, lyric, and precise--transported me back to the exquisite desperation of first love. Fisher's debut novel is like a visit from your younger self--even as you worry about Natalie, you won't be able to look away."
8 Lives of a Century-Old Trickster (2023)
Mirinae Lee
"In Mirinae Lee's 8-lives of a Century-Old Trickster, a sly, flinty protagonist summons all of her charm to survive one hundred years of tumult, espionage, and war. I have never put so much trust in a verified liar. Part spy novel, part ode to storytelling, Lee's debut captivated and surprised me."
I Could Live Here Forever (2023)
Hanna Halperin
"A stark, beautiful novel about the risk and intoxication of obsessive love and a young woman's need to be needed. Hanna Halperin makes you feel her heroine's hunger in every action and hesitation. Even as I feared for Leah, Halperin's writing made it impossible to look away. You won't be able to put this book down."
