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
Read MAL GOES TO WAR by Edward Ashton (of MICKEY 7 fame); coming from St. Martin's Press in April) - a Free AI gets stranded in damaged android body & pulled into a nasty war between rival human groups. "... a satirical take on war, AI, & what it really means to be human." #ewgc
