A coming-of-age comedy. A telenovela-worthy drama. A moving family saga. All in a phone call you won't want to hang…
up on. "A portrait of love, heartache, and hilarity that transcends its medium."- Elle (The Best Literary Fiction Books of 2024, So Far) "Brilliant . . . Melissa Mogollon did not come to play."-Kiley Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Such a Fun Age LONGLISTED FOR THE CENTER FOR FICTION FIRST NOVEL PRIZE "Yes, hi, Mari. It's me. I'm over my tantrum now and calling you back . . . But first-you have to promise that you won't tell Mom or Abue any of this. Okay? They'll set the house on fire if they find out . . ." Structured as a series of one-sided phone calls from our spunky, sarcastic narrator, Luciana, to her older sister, Mari, this wildly inventive debut "jump-starts your heart in the same way it piques your ear" (Xochitl Gonzalez). As the baby of her large Colombian American family, Luciana is usually relegated to the sidelines. But now she finds herself as the only voice of reason in the face of an unexpected crisis: A hurricane is heading straight for Miami, and her eccentric grandmother, Abue, is refusing to evacuate. Abue is so one-of-a-kind she's basically in her own universe, and while she often drives Luciana nuts, they're the only ones who truly understand each other. So when Abue, normally glamorous and full of life, receives a shocking medical diagnosis during the storm, Luciana's world is upended. When Abue moves into Luciana's bedroom, their complicated bond intensifies. Luciana would rather be skating or sneaking out to meet girls, but Abue's wild demands and unpredictable antics are a welcome distraction for Luciana from her misguided mother, absent sister, and uncertain future. Forced to step into the role of caretaker, translator, and keeper of the devastating family secrets that Abue begins to share, Luciana suddenly finds herself center stage, facing down adulthood-and rising to the occasion. As Luciana chronicles the events of her disrupted senior year of high school over the phone to Mari, Oye unfolds like the most fascinating and entertaining conversation you've ever eavesdropped on: a rollicking, heartfelt, and utterly unique novel that celebrates the beauty revealed and resilience required when rewriting your own story

A long time ago, Logan Maletis and Rosemary Hale used to be friends. They spent their childhood summers running through…
the woods, rebelling against their conservative small town, and dreaming of escaping. But then an incident the summer before high school turned them into bitter rivals. After graduation, they went ten years without speaking. Now in their thirties, Logan and Rosemary find they aren't quite living the lives of adventure they imagined for themselves. Still in their small town and working as teachers at their alma mater, they're both stuck in old patterns. Uptight Rosemary chooses security and stability over all else, working constantly, and her most stable relationship is with her label maker. Chaotic and impulsive Logan has a long list of misguided ex-lovers and an apathetic shrug she uses to protect herself from anything real. And as hard as they try to avoid each other—and their complicated past—they keep crashing into each other. Including with their cars. But when their beloved former English teacher and lifelong mentor tells them he has only a few months to live, they're forced together once and for all to fulfill his last wish: a cross-country road trip. Stuffed into the gayest van west of the Mississippi, the three embark on a life-changing summer trip—from Washington state to the Grand Canyon, from the Gulf Coast to coastal Maine—that will chart a new future and perhaps lead them back to one another

Ruti is Markless. In a society where worth is determined by the pattern on your palm and the magic it…
grants you, this also deems her worthless. But she's a hardened survivor, a protector of the lowest class ... and the most powerful witch in Somanchi. With a single song, she can ask the spirits to grant her unimaginable powers. Dekala's Mark is strong, a Mark fit for the future queen of Somanchi, but it's also unstable. She knows the only solution is to be bonded with another, but that would mean relinquishing control over her throne and kingdom. So when she witnesses Ruti's power, Dekala offers the witch a deal: She can be prosecuted for her crimes ... or she can help Dekala ascend to the throne, unbonded. Dekala is calculating and brutal, focused purely on getting her way. She is also determined, intelligent, and compassionate. Ruti is torn between the grudging bloom of attraction and admiration, and the desire to see Dekala fail. But as the spirits are defied, new alliances are forged and the fullness of Ruti's feelings emerge. The fate of the kingdom—and the survival of the downtrodden—lies in her unmarked hands
