Red Clocks
Leni Zumas
Near-future America where abortion is illegal, told through five very different women. Zumas structures it beautifully; it hit hard and still does.
★ 5Zone One
Colson Whitehead
A literary zombie novel set in a half-cleared Manhattan. Whitehead's prose is the real draw here. Bleak and brilliant.
★ 5You're Safe Here
Leslie Stephens
Set in 2060, where the rich escape a climate-wrecked coast into private wellness pods floating in the Pacific. Three women's lives intersect in this eerie debut about the true price of convenience.
