Kamilah Cole recommends

Boys with Sharp Teeth (2025)
Jenni Howell
"In this beautifully crafted, twisted love story, Howell explores what happens when love doesn't make you better, but in fact makes you worse. These complicated characters have tangled relationships and thorny secrets that make for a truly stunning tale."

What Wakes the Bells (2025)
Elle Tesch
"An utterly fresh tale you'll want to read over and over again, What Wakes the Bells stuns from the first page to the last, reverberating through your heart like a vesper bell--without the doom, of course. Mina is the demisexual heroine of my dreams, whose love--for her family and friends, for her duty and her heart--creates its own powerful, world-shaking magic."

To Steal from Thieves (2025)
(Thieves & Kings, book 1)
M K Lobb
"Insightful and fun, To Steal from Thieves spins a clever, unforgettable narrative about how desperation forges us into dangerous people - and how to reconcile and love those parts of ourselves anyway. M.K. Lobb has never heard of a sophomore slump. This new series opener is a sophomore success, in every sense of the word."
