Almost home! Day 9 of #LibFaves25: KING OF ASHES by S.A. Cosby. A prodigal son returns to deal with criminals corrupting his rural Virginia hometown, transforming his school smarts into street smarts. Operatic, pulpy, and visceral, Cosby never disappoints thriller fans. (Or me, for that matter.)

Apropos to a post I'm not going to quote: no, you are not fucking obliged to battle the fucking right on fucking social media, or go to where they are. Why make yourself miserable shouting at bots (who don't care) or trolls (who get off on your misery). Make your fucking social media enjoyable, FFS.

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

Day 8 of #LibFaves25: THE DEVILS by Joe Abercrombie. A motley crew of unholy supernatural creatures are tasked to complete a holy quest. Wry humor, sparkling action, and a story of redemption and a surprisingly touching found family will remind you of a fantasy version of your favorite Marvel movie.

Welcome to day 7 of #LibFaves25: THE CORRESPONDENT by Virginia Evans, a masterful word-of-mouth debut about a chronic letter-writer, a story told entirely in letters and emails. Sybil, the smart, curious, opinionated, an stubborn main character, is one of this years most delightful discoveries.

Day 6 of #LibFaves25: KILL YOUR DARLINGS by Peter Swanson. A marriage of two murderers told in reverse, moving back in time to the fateful meet cute that started it all. This domestic thriller has the feel of classic film noir, with character revelations that bite. Hitchcockian and compelling.

At the halfway point of #LibFaves25! Mostly known as a YA author, John Green gives us a witty, informative - and above all, supremely accessible - medical history in his non-fiction hit EVERYTHING IS TUBERCULOSIS.

Day 4 of #LibFaves25: RED CITY by Marie Lu: her adult novel debut about two star-crossed outsiders brought up to wield both power and magic in opposing sides of a crime syndicate street war is both electrifying and emotionally compelling: Fonda Lee meets V.E. Schwab; romantasy meets The Godfather.

Day 3 of #LibFaves25: either it’s a dark satire of one or a straight-up horror novel, but whichever the case, VICTORIAN PSYCHO by Virginia Feito is an unforgettable bloody romp about a governess with very bad intentions. Not for the squeamish. Couldn’t stop thinking about this one for months.

Day two of #LibFaves25: THE INCANDESCENT by Emily Tesh, a Dark Academia tale of a magic academy told from the POV of a beleaguered professor, keeping the students safe while battling the school’s history. (Literally.) Wistful, witty, and sharp - and with a great magic system - this one cut.

Kicking off day one of #libfaves25 with HEAD CASES by John McMahon: a delightful twist on your standard catch-the-serial-killer cold case procedural with a well-written (and possibly neurodivergent) protagonist. Where’s my sequels?
