The Bullet Swallower (2024)
Elizabeth Gonzalez James
"One Hundred Years of Solitude meets Lonesome Dove. A gunslinging Western laced with magical realism that illuminates the complicated history between Texas and Mexico, and the impacts of colonialism and generational trauma. The Bullet Swallower is the historical novel of our time because it asks:'What do we owe for the crimes of our ancestors?' A masterpiece!"
Good Morning, Love (2022)
Ashley M Coleman
"This sexy, scintillating novel about a talented woman navigating the male-dominated New York City music industry kept me up all night long! GOOD MORNING, LOVE is at once a simmering romance and a soul-searching exploration of what it takes to be a creative. Glorious!"
