Nina LaCour recommends
When the World Tips Over (2024)
Jandy Nelson
"When the World Tips Over is transcendently beautiful. It bursts with life and spills over with heartache and love."
Charming Young Man (2023)
Eliot Schrefer
"Charming Young Man is a gorgeous exploration of artistic talent and envy, wealth and power, art and desire wrapped up in a delicious, page-turner of a plot. I absolutely loved it."
The Blood Years (2023)
Elana K Arnold
"Ferocious and delicate, brilliant and emotional, The Blood Years is a finely wrought portrait of love and betrayal and what it costs to survive the unimaginable."
