Readers who found the struggle to communicate in Ray Nayler’s The Mountain in the Sea will enjoy the equally fraught miscommunications between the minarchs, the “stickmen,” and the humans, while fans of the classic Star Trek: The Next Generation episode “Darmok” will find this to be a familiar and similarly complex and heartbreaking tale.
This novel is effective in innumerable ways, particularly with its attention to the generational gap and the emotional disconnection created by the internet. Pargin’s deft combination of mystery and satire will appeal to the YA audience and to older readers.
The setting, the detailed emotive descriptions, and nail-biting adventure are incandescent. This debut novel from Caffall (The Mourner’s Bestiary) is like Peter Heller’s The Dog Stars met Barry Unsworth’s Sacred Hunger, with a focus on the essential nature of community.
Stein’s (When Grumpy Met Sunshine) delightful, steamy romance is full of surprises that will keep readers guessing. Give this one to romance fans who like their books hot and sweet.
Featuring a finely drawn cast of suspects, brought into sharp relief by Stella’s keen observation skills, Pekkanen’s (Gone Tonight) latest is a winding mystery that makes an atmospheric setting of Washington, D.C., and its affluent suburbs. It’s one of the author’s most engrossing and satisfying thrillers yet.
A worthy addition to the canon of antiracism literature. This titles comes with a necessary focus on the importance of self-reflection, self-assessment, and action.
Fluid pacing, companionable characters, plenty of spy/PI action, and a lovely sensibility all combine in a historical that will please many readers, from fans of Erica Ridley to Tessa Dare.
