I have long been a fan of this series and y’all should jump on it. Guy sees dead people and, as you might imagine, it messes him up. So to cope, he messes up people with a straight razor and sarcasm drier than Death Valley

I just finished The Red Scholar's Wake and I loved it so much! The ships are people with all the complexity and nuance that brings. The parent-child dynamics are so well done. And the romance is both delightful and deals with shame and feeling like you're not good enough. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended—unless you are sitting *completely alone* in a bookstore or library while reading.
"This is an immensely enjoyable romp. I have a feeling I’ll be recommending it quite a bit over the next while. And I’m looking forward with interest to what Fraimow does next."

A conversation on our Discord has prompted me to say again: remember, y'all, what really sells books is not the author talking about their work, but *readers* talking about it. Word of mouth drives far more sales than advertising or any other engine. So if you loved a book, tell your friends!
