Read this book in basically one sitting. Well written spooky story following a girl returning to her childhood home and the cult that still lives there, waiting for a special anniversary.

This fast-paced urban horror story follows a couple who's had a spate of awful luck leading up to and following the birth of their first child. Finally, a chance to move into a storied downtown high-rise overlooking the park seems like a chance to turn things around. Little do they know, the building chose them for a special fate. Gruesome and relatable post-pandemic horror for fans of Rosemary's Baby and Mexican Gothic.

Absolutely adored this book. A lonely scientist is tasked with deciphering possible signals from an apparently advanced species of octopuses on an island in the near-ish future. That's the basic plot, but the author digs into linguistics, AI, non-human intelligence, and communication generally in a gentle and well-paced thriller. Super fun read.

A harrowing portrait of a rapid descent into fascism taking place in a fictional Ireland ruled by a nationalist party. Haven't stopped thinking about it since I put it down, destined to be a classic of the dystopian genre (although it so close to home it barely qualifies as dystopia.)

A spec-fic masterpiece weaving multiple stories across generations to explore surveillance, resistance, and the power of the human brain.
