This Pride Month -- and every month -- we couldn't be prouder to have published these three books, each of which center q***r voices, stories, and lives.

In the opinion of NYT-bestselling author Jason Pargin, WE HAVE REACHED THE END OF OUR SHOW is a "beautiful and heartrending journey toward an inevitable, but profoundly meaningful, conclusion."

"The future of horror is q***r, and Jamie Zaccaria is leading the way," says Bryan Michael Ellis, author of "Still He Kills," on LAVENDER SPECULATION.

And SILAS ON SUNDAYS is "A charming story about finding your place," according to Kirkus Reviews.

Wildling is looking for ARC reviewers for our September release: We Have Reached the End of Our Show by Ali Gordon.

It's a short read that packs a big punch!

Absolutely hollering HAPPY FIRST BOOK BIRTHDAY to "Silas on Sundays"!! We are so grateful to have published this little book that offers a story many of us needed growing up but didn't have. Silas is proud to be themself, and our greatest hope is that all the kids who read about them feel exactly the same way about themselves. Happy Pride to all!!

Sometimes the decision to acquire a book is really difficult. But sometimes there's a single scene in a manuscript that captures us so wholly that the choice becomes simple. In "Cursed Coven," The Library Scene, as we lovingly refer to it, did just that. IYKYK!! (And if you don't know, then you better find out!)

"All in all, this sapphic short horror anthology is a must-read. From one-page screams to gory retellings, you will not want to put this book down. Not to mention never looking at a cat cafe the same again. If you like wlw storylines, plot-based horror, and jaw-dropping twists then you are in the right place. Happy reading!"
