Best Offer Wins (Marisa Kashino)
After 11 failed bids, Margo is determined to land her dream home—before it even hits the market. What starts as strategic becomes obsessive, then downright unhinged, as she inserts herself into the sellers’ lives. Darkly funny and a little unsettling, this is a story about ambition, boundaries, and how far we’ll go for the life we think we deserve.

The Authenticity Project (Clare Pooley)
A lonely artist leaves a journal in a café, inviting strangers to tell the truth about their lives. As the notebook passes from person to person, unexpected connections form—and a group of imperfect strangers begins to find friendship, healing, and a little bit of happiness along the way. Warm, quirky, and quietly uplifting.

The Swimmers: A Novel (Julie Otsuka)
In a quiet community pool, swimmers find routine, connection, and escape—until a crack disrupts everything. At the center is Alice, whose memory is fading, and whose life begins to unravel without the rhythm of the water. Poignant and beautifully written, this novel explores memory, loss, and the fragile ties that hold us together.
