Sara Gran recommends
The Arizona Triangle (2024)
(Jo Bailen Detective, book 1)
Sydney Graves
"The Arizona Triangle reminds me why I love mysteries. Christenson's book sneaks up on you; what starts as an ordinary little mystery slowly turns into a deep look into family and connection in the desert southwest. Read The Arizona Triangle in the desert if you can; this book brings the beautiful strangeness of Arizona to life."
Symphony of Secrets (2023)
Brendan Slocumb
"Both a beautiful, joyful, celebration of music and the people who love it, and a chilling portrait of how easily good slides into evil - and echoes through the years. I loved this book."
Ruin (2022)
Cara Hoffman
"RUIN is a collection of ten jewels, each multi-faceted and glittering, to be experienced with awe and joy. Cara Hoffman has seen a secret world right next to our own, just around the corner, and written us a field guide to what she's found. I love this book."
