We Mostly Come Out at Night (2024)
Rob Costello
"Charming or creepy, rousing or unsettling, or maybe a combination of all of those - there's an odd, eerie flavor for everyone in this stunner of an anthology. If you don't recognize that reference, dive into this queer fantasia and find out for yourself. My fave read this year!"
thumb
Funeral Girl (2022)
Emma K Ohland
"What a stirring, raw, and brave novel this is, to look directly into our deepest fears and refuse to resolve them! Ohland offers her lyrical hand to share anxiety and grief, and to honor those who experience them. Funeral Girl reminds us that we are all of us fragile and human, but also, that none of us ever have to be alone. An extraordinary debut; an extraordinary new voice."
thumb
The Reckless Kind (2021)
Carly Heath
"The Reckless Kind is an exquisite debut. Heath has crafted a folktale about found families and the breadth of love that's both immediate and timeless. I didn't want to put it down—it felt like coming home."
