Just finished THE LONGEST AUTUMN by Amy Avery (coming from Flatiron Bks, Jan '24) - a mythological, fantasy debut centered around Tirne, devout herald to Autumn. She's accused of breaking the mirror separating the worlds thus trapping her god in the human realm. #ewgc

Loved THE PALE HOUSE DEVIL by Richard Kadrey (Titan Books in Oct) A short, snappy tale about a cool pair of supernatural assassins-for-hire. 1 is alive, the other dead: 1 kills the dead, the other takes care of the living! More Ford & Neuland tales, please, Mr. Kadrey! #ewgc

THE UNFORGETABLE LORETTA DARLING by Katherine Blake (6/24 via HarperCollins): "Aspiring makeup artist takes on predatory Hollywood in this addictive debut novel with bite—a sultry, thrilling blend of The 7 Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Killing Eve, & A Promising Young Woman." #ewgc
