Everything's Fine (2023)
Cecilia Rabess
"Everything's Fine poses incisive questions about love, identity, and the countless ways these things can both bruise and bolster one another. Cecilia Rabess has crafted an extraordinarily brave debut that's painfully real-but plain funny as hell, too."
thumb
Not Safe For Work (2022)
Isabel Kaplan
"The rare kind of read that made me giggle just as much as it left me gutted."
thumb
Neruda on the Park (2022)
Cleyvis Natera
"A dazzling triumph...Every beat of Natera's gorgeous prose pulses with urgency, humanity, and a whole lot of heart."
