GOOD NEIGHBORS by @SarahVLangan1 is one of the most impactful novels I've read in years. It incisively captures the ways people scapegoat each other - but with surprising depth and compassion. In these rough times, Langan offers a balm of hope that humanity just might make it.

Just finished Best Worst American: Stories by Juan Martinez. Great collection of short stories - some surreal, some satiric, but all with interesting characters and a strong sense of place, whether Columbia or Orlando, Venezuela or Vegas. Recommended! https://t.co/5LudAhUQrr

THE HUNGRY EARTH by @TheKaufmann is a suspenseful #SF #horror story of a town in the grip of a violent, mind-altering infection. Well-drawn characters face a complex threat depicted in such rich detail it becomes frighteningly real! Highly recommended! https://t.co/AP1HHxB3WN

@ACNewman @haszombiesinit Gods of Want by K Ming Chang is a brilliant collection of weird short stories and may satisfy that itch!
