Jennifer Hofman’s debut novel THE STANDARDIZATION OF DEMORALIZATION PROCEDURES has garnered a starred and boxed review from Publishers Weekly.

Lauren Ho’s hilarious debut, LAST TANG STANDING, received its second starred review this week, this time from Bookpage. They rave: “[Ho’s] debut novel is a blast [with a] laugh-out-loud protagonist.

Putnam will publish it on June 9, 2020.

Catherine Lacey of the New York Times published a fantastic review of DRIFTS, writing: “Like many of the writers she resembles or reveres — Jean Rhys and Robert Walser, to name an odd pair — Zambreno draws on autobiography but never leans on it . . . her sentences are always airy and streamlined, full of wit and candor.” Andrew Schenker of the LA Times Book Review also praised DRIFTS, writing: “Nominally a work of fiction, but very clearly autobiographical, DRIFTS not so much renders the question of genre irrelevant but charts the search for a new genre.” Riverhead Books published the book on May 19, 2020.

Lauren Ho’s fun and flirty debut, LAST TANG STANDING, has received a starred review from Library Journal.

Putnam's Sons will publish the book on June 9, 2020.

Kirkus calls it “[a] transporting debut that deftly probes the complex nature of relationships between women,” and Publishers Weekly raves in a starred review that “this stranger-comes-to-town novel has the feel of a thriller as it illuminates the obligations of emotional labor.

One World will publish the book on July 28, 2020.
