Hannah Lillith Assadi recommends

Alice Sadie Celine (2023)
Sarah Blakley-Cartwright
"Alice Sadie Celine is the story of a forbidden love triangle, of the complexities of female friendship, and of the inextricable bond between mothers and daughters. Taut, tense, sexy, and lucid, Sarah Blakley-Cartwright's debut adult novel is an unforgettable, irresistible, daring page-turner."
thumb
Life Events (2020)
Karolina Waclawiak
"In this exquisite novel, Karolina Waclawiak rightfully recasts the American West as the territory of wandering dreams and dreamers and the land where this life and the improbable afterlife most often collide. Life Events is a deeply moving meditation on death and the dying, the fierce weight of marriage and family, and the unrelenting absurdity of being alive."
thumb
The Little Clan (2018)
Iris Martin Cohen
"In The Little Clan, Cohen delightfully draws the intoxicating tribulations of coming-of-age in New York City. Her debut is a heartbreaking, and often hilarious, tale of female friendship."
