so grateful i got early copies of both!

i feel exceptionally lucky that two of my favorite authors are publishing books in 2024 AND that i get to be an early reader for both of them!! like holy cow!! child steph would faint.

i’m talking about compound fracture by andrew joseph white and little rot by akwaeke emezi.

i actually was an early reviewer for their last two books as well (the spirit bares its teeth and you made a fool of death with your beauty), and of course those were both AMAZING, too.

what 2024 releases are you looking forward to?

2024/5/9 Edited to

2024 is destined to be an incredible year for literature, especially with the upcoming releases like 'Compound Fracture' by Andrew Joseph White, scheduled for September 3. This horror story, which has been described as a poignant tale, explores themes of survival and the complexities of identity through its unique trans narrative. Meanwhile, 'Little Rot' by Akwaeke Emezi, set for a June 18 release, slices through the heart of social issues, weaving a gripping thriller that exposes corruption within the intricate fabric of a Nigerian city. Both authors have garnered significant praise in the literary community for their previous works, making their new releases not only highly anticipated but essential reads for any book lover trying to navigate modern themes woven into their narratives. Don't miss out on discussing literary gems for your TBR list or sharing the excitement of upcoming titles in the vibrant Lemon8 community!
