Judith Claire Mitchell recommends
Wild with All Regrets (2023)
E L Deards
"Set in the era of World War One, Dulce et Decorum is a gripping page turner that takes an unflinchingly honest yet abidingly tender look at how we strive for hope and love despite the haunting violence-including poverty, bigotry, and warfare-this world can inflict. The characters of Lucas and Jamie will both fill and break your heart."
Fruiting Bodies (2022)
Kathryn Harlan
"Allow me to tell the unvarnished truth: Fruiting Bodies is going to knock your socks off. Put on your socks right now and get prepared. Kathryn Harlan's writing is just what you're looking for, but something you've never seen before."
Something Wild (2021)
Hanna Halperin
"In this compelling debut that examines overt violence and buried pain in the lives of a mother and her two adult daughters, Hanna Halperin explores the injuries that can and cannot be healed, the wrongs that can and cannot be forgiven, and the times when love is and isn’t enough. Something Wild is an unflinching look at what happens when closed doors and hearts are at last flung open."
