10 Guilty Pleasure Novels to Devour By May Cobb |
In May Cobb’s nail-biting new thriller,The Hunting Wives
, newcomer Sophie O’Neill joins an exclusive, conspiratorial clique of wives in Mapleton, Tex., whose Friday nights light up with their private skeet shooting club, followed by barhopping. Fueled by alcohol, rage, jealousy, unhappy marriages, and blind lust, the women indulge in adultery and raunchy sex, until a teenage cheerleader winds up dead and Sophie becomes the prime suspect. Wild plot twists keep the pages turning right up to the surprise ending.
There’s nothing quite as intoxicating as bingeing on a delicious book. Being lost in the pages of guilty pleasure novel can be so transporting. And I find these kinds of books to be the best kind of escape, especially in close-quarter pandemic times, because they simply make the outside world evaporate for a spell.

Never Forget Who You Are by
Achut Deng (l.) and
Keely Hutton. The narrative follows Deng's harrowing escape from her home village in South Sudan to a refugee camp in Kenya and finally to the U.S., where she arrived as part of a group of “Lost Boys." Told through the testimony of Deng's losses—including her name, her family, and her home—the YA memoir is the story of how Deng struggled to overcome exploitation and abuse and reclaim the things she lost by holding on to who she is. Publication is set for winter 2022; Soumeya Bendimerad Roberts at HG Literary did the deal for world rights.
