Courtney Smyth recommends
The Hollow and the Haunted (2024)
Camilla Raines
"Propulsive, perilous, endearing, and full of heart - Raines has written your new favourite comfort read."
The Afterlife of Mal Caldera (2024)
Nadi Reed Perez
"This book... felt so intimately familiar, like meeting an old friend... The Afterlife of Mal Caldera brings a heady mix of tender truth and searing wit to the party, where it speaks to the central hunger of the human condition: connection... Mal Caldera is the emo anti-hero we all need, in a queer love story that extends beyond romantic love."
A Market of Dreams and Destiny (2023)
Trip Galey
"Galey has created a world you can step inside, full of texture and descriptions so rich you can almost experience the market for yourself... A cracking read all round!"
