Rani Choudhury Must Die (2024)
Adiba Jaigirdar
"Jaigirdar takes the revenge scheme plot from the iconic 2000s movie and adds a fresh sapphic twist. The sleuthing and hijinks are delicious to read, but what ultimately anchors the story is the sweet second-chance romance for two childhood friends. I couldn't wait for Meghna and Rani to get their happily-ever-after."
If Tomorrow Doesn't Come (2023)
Jen St Jude
"An electric, urgent miracle of a book that asks what--and who--we dare to live for. Avery's story will shatter your heart and fill it with light again. Keep an eye on this writer: St. Jude is here to stay."
We Deserve Monuments (2022)
Jas Hammonds
"This is a powerful, quaking meditation on generational trauma that effortlessly blends the South's honeyed sunshine with its rotten secrets. Hammonds has written a blazing debut."
