Once Again: It’s Book Recommendation Time

In which I ask you to RECOMMEND A BOOK.


This time, with a small caveat:


Rec a book you do not think we’ve read. A book that’s something of an underdog — a fringe case, a book you want everyone to read but none of your friends have ever actually opened.


Also, the larger caveat applies, and I wish I didn’t have to give it, buuuuut:


Do not recommend your own book.


Because ew. Why would you do that?


Share the book-love. Don’t book-masturbate on us.


Oooh, one final caveat:


Recommend one book only, please and thank you.

Carsten Stroud's Niceville. It's part gothic horror, part modern day heist thriller. You've never read anything like it.

And because I can't recommend more than one, I'll just say there's two books that follow it.

Leonardo A Shadow in Summer by Daniel Abraham.
One of most unique takes on magic I have ever read and just beautifully written. It happens to be part of a quartet (nudge nudge)


message 3: by Janet (new)

Janet I can never, ever, EVER recommend A Death at the White Camellia Orphanage by Marly Youmans enough, ever. She's a writer's writer, completely underappreciated, the mistress of many genres and you won't regret it, I guarantee.
