"twisty, pacy thriller/horror novel is part BRING HER BACK plus THE LAST HOUSE ON NEEDLESS STREET, crossed with BEETLEJUICE."
"stands out as the most original ghost story I’ve ever enjoyed, even among the hundreds I’ve read."
Pretty big bookclub picked it up this month, so can you! a.co/d/hdmfDhF

My books against a starry background. The Night Library of Sternendach features a book, fangs, and red bat wings. The Glass Garden has futuristic white text over a kaleidoscopic image.
Top of the mornin', Gabino!
Want some bittersweet coming of age/deconstructed romance that rhymes? I got you. 'Tis the season.
Poetry not your thing and you'd rather have modern, ragtag salvors investigate a beautiful, terrifying anomaly on a distant planet? I got that, too!

It’s a great day to buy 3 books, minimum. You heard me. In fact, I aim to grab five. Why the fuck not?!? I love them. You do too. Maybe you buy mine, maybe you don’t. You should buy one min from your favorite Latina or Latino author first and run amok from there! Thnx @gabino.bsky.social 🖤🙏🖤🙏
Many thanks, my man!
For the afternoon crowd. It's release day of The Garden of Before!
🚨🚨🚨 It's pub day for THE GARDEN OF BEFORE, the sequel and conclusion to THE BETWEEN! What a journey these books have been. Please help me spread the word and give this book a huge sendoff into the world of readers! 🚨🚨🚨@parliamentbooks.bsky.social

When I was in high school, I read Clive Barker's Weaveworld and was forever changed. THE BETWEEN is my homage to Weaveworld. The 2nd half of The Between's duology is out next Tuesday! THE GARDEN OF BEFORE (killer title, eh?)

"Seriously - if you enjoyed the first installment, you will love the sequel even more, even if it will break your heart here and there..."
Humbled by this review by Roberta at Offbeat YA.
I had a few people asking if there is an ebook version of Summer in the House of the Departed. Yes there is! You can order it directly from the publisher right here:

The cover of the book in question, with arrows indicating it contains coffee, academics… in space, adult sibling drama, and eldritch horror
I'd love to get some more eyeballs on my latest novella, THE GLASS GARDEN.
