In Every Version of You by Natalie Messier, thirty-two-year-old Los Angeles corporate lawyer Josephina “Joey” Vasquez appears to have everything under control, yet her personal life is quietly unraveling. Her biggest lifelong regret is her unrequited love for her college best friend, Elijah Aarons. After an excruciating dinner party where she discovers Elijah’s wife is pregnant—and gets into a heated argument with Alex Aquino, her arrogant former classmate—Joey suffers a fatal car accident. She wakes up in a retro-styled purgatory offered a rare second chance: return to her eighteen-year-old self at the exact moment she met both Elijah and Alex, armed with every memory of her past life. Intent on using her future knowledge to win Elijah’s heart and fix her career mistakes, Joey’s plan hits an unexpected detour when she finds herself mysteriously drawn to Alex, forcing her to question whether the destiny she spent fourteen years chasing was wrong all along.

“A witty, emotionally resonant home run that masterfully balances speculative time-travel elements with genuine, character-driven heart.”

The Book Guide® Editor

Messier crafts a moving narrative that transcends simple romantic tropes, turning a premise of cosmic second chances into a poignant coming-of-age journey about self-acceptance. Joey’s attempts to rewrite history reveal that true fulfillment comes not from engineering a flawless timeline, but from letting go of rigid expectations and choosing authentic happiness. Every Version of You establishes Natalie Messier as a standout new voice in magical realism and contemporary romance, delivering an ending that is as emotionally satisfying as it is thought-provoking.

Fruit Fly (2026)

In his adult debut, Fruit Fly, author Josh Silver (previously known for HappyHead) brings a sharp, unsettling perspective to the contemporary thriller. The novel centers on Mallory Maddox, a once-lauded novelist paralyzed by protracted writer’s block, who resolves her creative deficit by co-opting the life of a young gay man navigating homelessness, addiction, and severe mental distress. What follows is an increasingly volatile descent into the ethics of exploitation and literary ownership. For readers who devoured R.F. Kuang’s Yellowface and found themselves hungry for another lacerating examination of modern cultural appropriation within the publishing ecosystem, Silver’s dark satire delivers with considerable bite.
