From hidden gems to the most talked-about titles published today, BookTrib curates books so you don’t have to.
Switzy by Emma Cline
Literary Fiction
Anything Emma Cline writes is an auto-buy, but the fact that Switzy is also longlisted for the Booker Prize further sweetens the deal. Cline’s upcoming release follows David, an aging retired executive, as he embarks on a pilgrimage-like journey at the end of his life: a flight on a private jet, dinner with his daughter, a meeting in France with an estranged friend, and then his final destination of Zurich. As his grasp on reality begins to unravel, the novel takes us on a philosophical journey through past and present that asks us to reflect on the legacy we leave behind.

Passport to Freedom by Nizam Missaghi M.D.
Memoir
Nizam Missaghi’s unforgettable memoir chronicles his tumultuous childhood in post-revolutionary Tehran, where he and his family are persecuted for being a religious minority. Being Baha’i in Iran means he might as well have no future at all, with no opportunity for education or employment. His only chance at freedom is the U.S. passport hidden in his drawer — but the surveillance of an authoritarian regime means that even trying to leave means he’s risking everything. Missaghi’s story of his daring escape is an absolute must-read that inspires hope in the modern-day American dream.

Shelter Is Necessary For Existence by Brenda Iijima
Thriller
Part heart-pounding haunting, part cutting social critique, this psychological thriller is not one to be missed. Parasite meets The Haunting of Hill House when an upper-middle-class family purchases their new Brooklyn brownstone home — only to learn of the mysterious deaths the previous tenants suffered. Sue, the wife and mother of the family, is soon plagued by nightmares and disturbed by the odd behavior that her children start exhibiting. Author Brenda Iijima cleverly works in the timely discussion of who gets to occupy space in New York City and who gets left behind.

See You Next Tuesday by Kate Stayman-London
Romance
As soon as I saw that See You Next Tuesday was compared to The West Wing, I was hooked. This fiery romance follows Anya and Gabe, rival campaign staffers who can’t ignore their magnetic chemistry even as they butt heads over everything from fundraising events to polling predictions. This love story has all the hallmarks of a future fan favorite — killer banter, a propulsive plot and a leading couple readers can’t help but root for. In the rising trend of book-to-screen romcom adaptations, I think this title will soon be added to the list.

Astarion by T. Kingfisher
Fantasy
As a tie-in to the Baldur’s Gate franchise and a book authored by the legendary fantasy writer T. Kingfisher, this one is practically destined for the bestseller list. After centuries of serving a cruel vampire lord and master, Astarion is determined to find a way to escape his misfortune. An opportunity presents itself in a new competition to hunt down an ancient, magical item buried somewhere deep in the heart of the city; but with competitors who are willing to kill for their own chance to gain the vampire lord’s favor, Astarion will need allies in order to secure his own victory.
