Island Rule (2024)
Katie M Flynn
"A wonderfully eerie collection, Island Rule haunts and delights. Flynn's writing is taught and teeming, making a world of bone mounds and monsters as alarmingly real as teenage angst and midlife crises. The creeping darkness of Island Rule revels in exploring darkness at the edges of our world, and what happens when we invite it in."

Shoot the Moon (2023)
Isa Arsén
"A uniquely tender and beautiful book.....A novel of wonder and in-betweens that asks us to consider grief, hope, love, and ambition in equal measure."

Edith Holler (2023)
Edward Carey
"Edith Holler is a masterpiece. Carey's prose teems with wonderfully twisted humor and play, breathing life into the spirits that haunt its gothic framework. It is that special novel that makes you wonder why there aren't more like it. The answer, of course, is that there is just one Edward Carey. Edith Holler is singular - a dark delight from beginning to end"
