Loved Suzy Krause's I THINK WE'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE (@radiantpress.bsky.social)?

We put together a list of four follow-up reads for when you're in the mood to feel a little unsettled (in a good way).

OH. MY. GOD.
Bad-ass author Suzy Krause says my upcoming novel CLEMENTINE CRANE PREFERS NOT TO hits like Judy Blume's Are You There God? It's Me, Margaretβ€”equal parts horror & fascination.
This one’s for the grown women are done.

On the third week of #alubookclub we chat about our July pick I THINK WE'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE by @suzykrause.bsky.social (published by @radiantpress.bsky.social).

We all agreed: this book made us emotional in the very best way.

It's actually mind blowing to me how many people want to go for coffee to pick my brain "about getting published" and when we sit down I find that they have never written ANYTHING. They always seem disappointed when I tell them the first thing they need to do is write something.

I literally just saw one in a thrift store in Langley and my daughter beggggggged me to buy it for her (I said no because it wouldn't fit in the carry-on luggage. This is of no help to you but it feels like a funny coincidence. But Mastermind Toys maybe?

Right?! I feel like they should at least be pretty so you could store them on your bookshelves when you're not using them.

I would like to hire someone to come with me to social events and just lightly tap me on the back when I start talking too loud or too excitedly. Just a light tap, that's all I need.

To tell you the truth, you are here:
A swiftly tilting planet
This side of paradise
The year of what if
Rules of civility,
Sense and sensibilityβ€”
And then there were none
Beautiful world, where are you?
(Asking for a friend)
I think we've been here before
This is not how it ends
The sun also rises

Me, as we're getting ready to leave the house, talking to Barclay and Sully, who were just outside: How's the weather out there?
Sully: So nice.
Barclay: Yeah, it's gorgeous out there today. Light jacket, maybe?
Sully: Yeah light jacket.
Weather app: It's -20.
