Christa Faust recommends

Hurt for Me (2024)
Heather Levy
"Visceral and authentic, Hurt for Me is a deliciously kinky thriller that subverts the tired, traditional power dynamics of the genre and centers the kind of women who are too often relegated to a sexy accessory."

Things Get Ugly (2023)
Joe R Lansdale
"Pulpy, blackly humorous, compulsively readable, and somehow both wildly surreal and down-to-earth. Lansdale is a national f***ing treasure."
