Something Close to Nothing (2024)
Tom Pyun
"An engaging, globetrotting debut that captures the many highs and lows of creating the family of one's dreams. Full of warmth, insight, and attention to complicated truths."
The Apology (2023)
Jimin Han
"The Apology is a vividly rendered novel about the long life spans of secrets, featuring an unforgettable 105-year-old narrator who is as stubborn and proud as she is spirited. With depth, emotion, and total clarity of vision, Jimin Han has crafted a wonderfully moving story about love and loss, betrayal and forgiveness, and the lengths that one woman will go to in this world and the next to undo the mistakes of the past."
When We Were Bright and Beautiful (2022)
Jillian Medoff
"Jillian Medoff's latest novel is an intricately crafted page turner with characters so flawed and fascinating, there's absolutely no looking away from them. Smart, challenging, and deeply unsettling, WHEN WE WERE BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL will test your assumptions about guilt and innocence, and subvert your expectations until the very end."
