The line up in the new section at the end !!!!!!!!!!

From your New In books, Enter Ghost was such a stand out for me. I’m also currently reading Blue Light Hours and it’s going down so smoothly!

I'm reading Coin at the moment, and oh my goodness—it’s so random, but in a really good way! I also love that it’s not just another “struggling POC” story, if you know what I mean. Don’t get me wrong; as a WOC myself, I enjoy reading about other writers of color and their struggles. But there’s something especially exciting when a fellow POC basically says, “Screw it, I don’t have to write about racism—I can write whatever I want!” It’s so empowering. I love that she’s a rich Palestinian living in New York—especially given how Palestinians are currently being portrayed in the media amidst the ongoing conflict.

On a related note, I definitely need to pick up Cold Nights of Childhood by Tezla Özlü. I’m always happy to read more work from Turkish or Greek writers!
