Sister Snake

by Amanda Lee Koe

Sisterhood is complicated when you’ve been human for a thousand years but were once snakes under the Tang Dynasty moon. Su, a picture-perfect politician’s wife in Singapore, and Emerald, a chaos-loving sugar baby in New York, share nothing in common—except their scaly secret. But when danger brings them back together, Su’s attempt to rein in Emerald in Singapore’s pristine society threatens to unravel everything, in a dazzling tale of queerness, conformity, and the quest for freedom.

Private Rites

by Julia Armfield

The rain hasn’t stopped in years, warping the world and resurrecting ancient rituals—and in the eerie glass house their father built, sisters Isla, Irene, and Agnes reunite after his death to uncover the secrets he left behind. But their fragile truce shatters when his will reveals a devastating truth, sending each sister spiraling: Irene’s relationship is unraveling, Isla’s ex-wife is back in the picture, and cynical Agnes is falling for someone she can’t trust. As their lives descend into chaos, an ominous force tied to their mother’s disappearance and their family’s dark legacy reveals that the sisters are pawns in a game far more dangerous than they imagined.

Definitely Better Now

by Ava Robinson

Emma’s been sober for a year, which means she’s got her life together—right? But between her mom moving in with a new boyfriend, her estranged dad dropping bombshell news, and the chaos of planning the office holiday party, her "fresh start" feels more like a demolition site. Toss in Ben, the annoyingly sweet IT guy, and Emma’s learning that sobriety doesn’t fix everything—but maybe embracing the mess is the real win.
