Annie Hartnett recommends
In a Dark Mirror (2024)
Kat Davis
"Get your nightlight ready - In a Dark Mirror is the kind of book you stay up all night to read, and then you'll spend the rest of the week thinking about it. It's a mesmerizing, creepy, original and deeply compelling novel about adolescent girls and the darkness that lurks within, and I gobbled it whole. Kat Davis is a star."
Eli Harpo's Adventure to the Afterlife (2024)
Eric Schlich
"Eli Harpo's Adventure to the Afterlife is an exuberant, rich, lively, and thoroughly entertaining novel, and I adored it. Eric Schlich is a wonderful writer and you'll admire his prose, but you'll love the novel most for its big honkin' heart."
Cleaner (2023)
Brandi Wells
"Brandi Wells has created a biting, witty, pitch-perfect novel about one woman's desire to connect with her office co-workers - the only problem is, she cleans the office during the night and they work during the day. Cleaner is funny, slyly moving, and totally weirdly wonderful, and Brandi Wells is a gloriously bold writer. I adored it."
