Laura Steven recommends
thumb
Fable for the End of the World (2025)
Ava Reid
"Nobody balances sweetness with brutality, tenderness with violence, quite like Ava Reid. This hit all the nostalgic Hunger Games notes while bringing fresh sapphic blood to the dystopian genre - I inhaled it!"
thumb
Old Wounds (2024)
Logan-Ashley Kisner
"Wholly original, endlessly subversive, and genuinely terrifying, Old Wounds is doing something completely fresh in contemporary horror."
thumb
I Will Never Leave You (2024)
Kara A Kennedy
"Both a twisty horror-thriller and an emotionally complex character study, I inhaled this in one obsessive gulp. If this is Kennedy's debut, we are not ready for the full height of her power."
