Your next cozy day read should be The Perishing, because you won't want to put it down. When Lou, a young Black woman, wakes up in an alley in 1930s Los Angeles with no memories, she has the uncanny feeling this has happened before. She's taken in by a foster family and eventually becomes the first Black female journalist at the Los Angeles Times. But when she meets a local firefighter — one whose face she's been unintentionally drawing since she was a teen — she realizes her life isn't quite normal. Lou has the feeling they've met in a past life, and when she starts seeing flashes from a different time, Lou suspects that she could be an immortal sent to this time for a reason — but what?
An intoxicating blend of sci-fi and historical fiction, The Perishing is a unique perspective on Depression-era life for a Black woman, time traveler or not. It comes out this month, so make sure to preorder your copy now! —Kirby Beaton
