Miranda Smith recommends

We Don't Talk About Carol (2025)
Kristen L Berry
"We Don't Talk About Carol is beautiful, evocative, and brilliant. Kristen L. Berry weaves a suspenseful tale while insightfully handling themes of generational trauma and grief with vulnerability and grace. I loved the parallels between Sydney trying to make sense of her family's past while also building a foundation for her future. Packed with relatable characters and gasp-inducing reveals, this debut is perfect for fans of true-crime podcasts and captivating mysteries."

Nanny Dearest (2021)
Flora Collins
"A powerful debut about the fine line between love and obsession...haunting."
