Kelsea Yu recommends
Wife Shaped Bodies (2026)
Laura Cranehill
"A visceral, transformative tale marrying beauty and decay in a strangely compelling narrative that crawled right under my skin. I loved every moment of this absolutely breathtaking and wonderfully disgusting debut. Wife Shaped Bodies is the weird mushroom horror you need in your life!"
The Iron Garden Sutra (2026)
(Cosmic Wheel, book 1)
A D Sui
"Sui blends genres seamlessly, bringing to life a fresh, inventive tale that is as brutal as it is beautiful. With stunning prose and a deep, pulsing heartbeat, The Iron Garden Sutra is filled with tender moments and meaningful catharsis among the horrors. Richly layered and intensely compelling from start to finish."
Hazelthorn (2025)
C G Drews
"A lush, gothic tale filled with devastating twists, delicious atmosphere, and toxic family secrets. Drews delivers another obsession-worthy masterpiece in Hazelthorn-one that's as hauntingly beautiful as the eponymous manor."
