Genevieve Hudson recommends
Something Close to Nothing (2024)
Tom Pyun
"Written with a contagious, full-throttle energy that hooked me from the first page, Something Close to Nothing is a fresh and spirited debut. Spanning decades and continents, this tale is equal parts intimate and comic, deftly shifting between character perspectives to insightfully unpack the buildup and breakdown of the love between two men in gripping detail. Tom Pyun infuses each twist and turn with wit and wisdom."
We Ate the Dark (2024)
Mallory Pearson
"We Ate the Dark is a gripping tale of friendship and grief and the real and imagined ghosts from the past that come to haunt us. Deliciously queer and wildly Southern, this book had me turning pages fast, lost in its poetic language, immersed in the lush landscape, holding my breath in anticipation. Mallory Pearson has written a stunning debut filled with sentences that continued to surprise me with their beauty and generosity until the very last page."
