Summertime has come and that means I am once again seeking recs for novels about people on vacation or in some warm place but with darkness underneath (which is maybe unnecessary to say, because without the darkness, it would just be reading about people on vacation… and where’s the story in that!) My recs in this category: - The Guest by Emma Cline (a favorite from 2023) - Happy Hour by Marlowe Granados (read last summer but I think I might need to read it every summer) - Set This House on Fire by William Styron (just finished this one, so gorgeous)

I found the protagonist of The Guest SO unlikable. Like I HATED that girl. I wanted to quit that book so bad Here’s my rec for u https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55298364 https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/08/books/review/a-childrens-bible-lydia-millet.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

RC’ed because I want to get back into fiction… still… after years of saying that 😂 I think I literally WROTE a novel since the last time I had a decent fic phase :(

- The Lost Daughter (also now on Netflix!), Elena Ferrante - The Guest List, Lucy Foley (might not be summer but they’re on vacation!). - God of the Woods, Liz Moore (about a summer camp) All mystery, The Guest Lists is probably the darkest of the three.
