NATIONAL BESTSELLER | WINNER OF THE KIRKUS PRIZE | NBCC JOHN LEONARD PRIZE FINALIST One of The New York Times Book Review's 100 Notable Books of 2025 One of The Washington Post's 10 Best Books of 2025 For readers of Jonathan Franzen and Nathan Hill comes a haymaker of an American novel about a missing teenage boy, cases of fluid and mistaken identity, and the transformative power of boxing. Austin, Texas: It’s the summer of 1998, and there’s a new face on the scene at Terry Tucker’s Boxing Gym. Sixteen-year-old Nathaniel Rothstein has never felt comfortable in his own skin, but under the tutelage of a swaggering, Haitian-born ex-fighter named David Dalice, he begins to come into his own. Even the boy’s slightly stoned uncle, Bob Alexander, who is supposed to be watching him for the summer, notices the change. Nathaniel is happier, more confident—tanner, even. Then one night he vanishes, leaving little trace behind. Across the city, Charles Rex, now going simply by “X,” has been undergoing a teenage transformation of his own, trolling the phone sex hotline that his mother works, seeking an outlet for everything that feels wrong about his body, looking for intimacy and acceptance in a culture that denies him both. As a surprising and unlikely romance blooms, X feels, for a moment, like he might have found the safety he’s been searching for. But it's never that simple. More than a decade later, Nathaniel’s uncle Bob receives a shocking tip, propelling him to open his own investigation into his nephew’s disappearance. The resulting search involves gymgoers past and present, including a down-on-his-luck twin and his opportunistic brother; a rookie cop determined to prove herself; and Alexis Cepeda, a promising lightweight, who crossed the US-Mexico border when he was only fourteen, carrying with him a license bearing the wrong name and face. Bobbing and weaving across the ever-shifting canvas of a changing country, The Slip is an audacious, daring look at sex and race in America that builds to an unforgettable collision in the center of the ring.

Maggie’s mind is reeling when she discovers the guy she became tangled up with at Marv’s Bait &amp; Tackle isn’t a stranger like she thought, but her brother’s best friend who she’s never met. Maggie was supposed to be visiting her brother&nbsp;in&nbsp;Colorado after a disastrous breakup with the man she thought she was going to spend the rest of her life with.

Not a filthy-hot make out session with her brother’s bearded best friend who has the biggest hands she’s ever seen. Now Sam and Maggie are forced to hide the truth from Miles and the rest of his friends or risk a huge fall out. The big snag: Sam and Maggie’s chemistry is hot enough to melt ice, which makes keeping their secret far more difficult than expected.

The winner of the 2024 Novel Prize,Ruins, Childuses the lens of urban infrastructure, social commentary, folklore, choreography and collective listening to create an ethnography of place and an ode to communal ruins.

Ruins, Child

“A compact, intricately patterned story of unrequited erotic obsession, focused on the relationship between a closeted English novelist and a beautiful Italian philosopher . . . Among the novel’s daring ideas is its suggestion that closetedness and English taciturnity are part of a common condition, each an art of concealment.” —Charlie Tyson, Harper’s Magazine

A witty, heartbreaking tale of unrequited love by “one of the finest and most remarkable English novelists of our time.” (The Scotsman)

Antonio Valli, a gifted Italian philosopher in his thirties, has left his wife and children behind in Florence for a one-year research fellowship at a provincial English university. Handsome and charming, Antonio is irresistible to men and women both—and he knows it. One who falls under his spell is Dick Thompson, a successful middle-aged novelist from whom Antonio rents a room. For the first time in years, Dick finds himself desperately, passionately in love, but the games the manipulative Italian plays with him throw the older man’s life into chaos.

Published only three years after the decriminalization of homosexuality in the UK, A Domestic Animal is Francis King’s most intimate and daringly autobiographical novel: a “wry, anguished study . . . of love and jealousy [that] is hard to forget” (Robert Baldick, The Daily Telegraph).

A Domestic Animal

"Emma Rosenblum has become the queen of reads about wealthy East Coast women behaving badly, and her latest is no exception." -Glamour Meet Frost, Morgan, and Belle-a wealthy, gorgeous group of New York City moms, the queen bees of downtown Manhattan. Their children attend Atherton Academy, the top private school in the city, and their social lives revolve around elaborate themed parties. On the first day of school, the arrival of a new mom and mysterious beauty from Miami, Sofia, shakes up their world. When Sofia quickly integrates herself into their clique, inexplicably bad things start to happen to the women. Is someone at school out to get them? Spanning the course of one eventful school year in New York, Mean Moms is part satire of upper-crust mom-ing and part mystery, interrogating the line between friendship and jealousy, and getting at the question: What would happen if the woman standing next to you at school pickup was actually a sociopath?

Mean Moms

Set against an oppressive backdrop of political violence and natural disaster in Pakistan, Amna traces the class struggle of Tara, a woman trapped between province and metropolis, motherhood and ambition, who will risk everything to carve out a life of her own. Critically acclaimed, disquieting and utterly gripping.

A Splintering

First Time I Saw Him

"Say Yes to the Dress meets Rosemary's Baby" (Margie Sarsfield) in this fresh, darkly funny horror novel in which a woman finally agrees to marry the man of her mother’s dreams. . . only to discover that wedding planning will eat you alive.&nbsp; If Ophelia Cohen learned one thing from her parents, it’s that getting married is a bad idea.&nbsp;But if she’s learning anything from her widowed mother’s dementia, it’s that dying alone is worse. So when she meets Luke—the man of her mother’s dreams—marriage suddenly doesn’t seem so crazy. But none of Ophelia’s obsessive scrolling on wedding forums can prepare her for the nightmare of planning her own. Why is her mother-in-law going crazy over every detail? Why is Luke’s family so eager to host the wedding in their vineyard’s ancient chapel? And what exactly will Ophelia have to sacrifice if she and her mother both hope to survive her special day? Shot through with wicked humor, pitch-black horror, and unexpected romance,&nbsp;Until Death&nbsp;is a deliciously dark and funny send-up of the wedding industrial complex—and a mother-daughter story unlike any you’ve read before. "Recognizes the Gothic horror inherent to planning a wedding and creates from it a painfully incisive and genuinely haunting fever dream.” —Kay Chronister, author of The Bog Wife&nbsp; “Completely unique, deeply unnerving, and deviously funny.” —Samantha Allen, author of Patricia Wants to Cuddle “Grabbed me like a creeping vine and wouldn't let go." —Kerry Cullen, author of House of Beth “Glistens with humor and horror. An electrifying and affecting debut.” —Samantha Hunt, author of The Seas

Until Death

NATIONAL BESTSELLER A New York Times Book Review MOST ANTICIPATED Book "Between the Taylor Swift effect, BTS fever, and the rise (and rise) of Heated Rivalry, fandoms are having a moment-making it the PERFECT TIME to dig into Zhang's alternately HEARTRENDING AND THRILLING new novel." -Vogue "Equally DARK AND DAZZLING, like a spotlight flickering on a dim stage. This is a book I'll be recommending to all my coolest friends." -LitHub From National Book Foundation 5 UNDER 35 HONOREE Jenny Tinghui Zhang, a novel about a pop idol and his superfan, whose stories shockingly collide Freshman Minnie is adrift at college in Austin, Texas, when she discovers a boy band called HOURglass and the online forums that worship them. She especially loves Halo, whose sharp edges feel somehow familiar. After a brief romance goes painfully awry, Minnie pours everything into her new fandom, clinging to each livestream and bonding with other fans online. But when a scandal threatens to expose Halo to harm, Minnie decides that she is the only one who can save him. Except Halo's secret is darker than anything the tabloids could imagine. Before he was a superstar heartthrob, he was Eason: a high school dropout haunted by a tragic accident. When he is recruited for HOURglass, it feels like a chance to become someone else. And when he is onstage in front of his fans, he can almost forget the horrors of his past--until one of those very fans threatens to destroy everything. Dazzling, entrancing, and deeply heartfelt, Superfan is about fandom in all its magic and its terror, and the extreme lengths to which we go to rid ourselves of loneliness.

Superfan

The latest novel from the winner of the 2021 European Union Prize for Literature.

Teddý lives with her parents on a farm in the Icelandic wilderness. It's 1962, and the world is changing, although you wouldn't know it from the stark quiet of the lava fields and mountains that mark the boundaries of the young woman's existence. But after two chance encounters, Teddý's dreams of a world beyond begin to crystallise, albeit in strange and unexpected ways, as we follow one woman's life over five decades, from farm to city to the skies. Taking us from the grandeur of rural Iceland to the glossy, sticky world of 1970s air travel, via check fraud, thwarted ambition and lost astronauts, Boudoir is a novel about reinvention, dislocation, and the forceful gravity of the lives and selves we think we've left behind.
