May is that chaotic middle child of the calendar — the sun’s out, but your sweater’s still on. It’s not spring, not summer and somehow jam-packed with events you forgot you RSVP’d to. But we’re here to offer a little escape hatch, one page at a time.

This week’s literary lineup includes fictional mothers who deserve more than a lukewarm mimosa and a mass-produced card. These women will not be sitting quietly in the background while the plot happens around them.

We’ve also got thrillers bursting at the seams with cover-ups, ghosts, clever pickpockets and the kind of twists that make you miss your train stop. And if you’re looking for something that lingers long after you turn the last page? We’ve got you covered.

So, cancel those plans you didn’t want to go to anyway and let’s get bookish. You’ve earned it.
