I'm excited for my dear friend Jo Paquette's new book, STORIES I TOLD MY DEAD LOVER, out next week! I got a chance to read some of these stories in the drafting process and you're in for a treat, esp if you're a fan of Kelly Link.

I'm also very intrigued to read THE MINISTRY OF TIME by Kaliane Bradley, which has come highly recommended! What other new releases should I be checking out?

Former Restless Books intern Jenna Tang just published a translation of Lin Yi-Han’s novel, Fang Si-Chi's First Love Paradise. This book is an important, special novel that breaks silences around sexual grooming. It’s bold and sharp and makes you think about how we tell stories of trauma.
