Once and Again and Frida's Cook are both excellent reads with unique premises! I'm already a fan of Rebecca Searle's gorgeous writing, but this one was gut-wrenching plot-wise. Frida's Cook was fascinating and engaging, and -- though historical fiction is not what I gravitate toward -- seems likely to be one of my favorite reads of this year!
The One Day You Were My Husband by Rosie Walsh was unputdownable and literally cost me a whole night's sleep!
(Bookstore owner here who received advance copies a few months ago for my honest review.)
This month, I'm reading The Children by Melissa Albert, Cat Love by Tomás Q. Morín, Sublimation by Isabel J. Kim, The Last Page by Katie Holt, and Whistler by Ann Patchett.
Yes, yes, yes! Putting The One Day You Were My Husband on my list. And I'll go hunt down an ARC of Whistler. Love your look ahead! Thanks for sharing, Priscilla. What do you think will be the biggest beach read this summer?
I just bought Lady Tremaine yesterday! I also really want to read the Stacey Lee. Love her!
Also excited to read This Story Might Save Your Life by Tiffany Crum, which is about two friends who have a podcast about near death experiences and one day one of them goes missing and the other is the main suspect.
To Cage A Wild Bird by Brooke Fast. Mild dystopian where the rich can pay to hunt criminals in a prison. A young woman gets herself sentenced to try to protect her younger brother who was sent there.
Everyone in This Bank is a Suspect by Benjamin Stevenson. Ernest Cunningham in back.
Excellent list! To Cage a Wild Bird sounds like Hunger Games meets Squid Game. I was also drawn to This Story Might Save Your Life, but now that I am running a podcast, maybe a little too close to home 😂
