![A couple of covers with similar vibes to put on your Spring reading list 📚️
What books have you been reading during this season?
Here's what's on our stack:
🔥While We Were Burning by Sara Koffi (@putnambooks)
"A scorching debut that is as heartbreaking as it is thrilling, examining the intersection of race, class, and female friendship, and the devastating consequences of everyday actions."
🏠️Missing White Woman by Kellye Garrett (@mulhollandbooks)
"From the award-winning author of Like a Sister, in which a woman thinks she’s waking up to a romantic vacation—only to find a body in her rental home and her boyfriend gone."
🔍️Rainbow Black by Maggie Thrash (@harperperennial)
"Part murder mystery, part gay international fugitive love story—set against the ’90s Satanic Panic and spanning 20 years in the life of a young woman pulled into its undertow."
A huge thank you to the authors, publishers, and publicists that keep our TBRs stacked and keeping great books on our radar.
