Evie just pick one so I can mourn who you didn't pick.
I got that "Somebody's gonna die" feeling, and I don't like it one bit.
*finishes book: finds out that the fandom is essentially non-existent. This is fine. It's not like I wanted to obsess over it or anything.

Before the Devil Breaks You by Libba Bray

"A Jew, two negroes, a half-Chinese half-Irish girl, and a couple of Catholics" Am I here for the mentioning of how Catholics were also seen as outsiders in America. Yes. Also. what a squad. 
....I am concerned. Mabel. 
Cough. Captain America. 
Anytime any of the bad guys has a single thought or starts talking about being "Unamerican" or anything to do with eugenics:

Oh. My. God. I was not expecting ace-rep and there is ace-rep and honestly I am here for it.
Hey so there was a second where almost everyone was having a good time and just being teenagers...and then that moment ended. 
I'm just gonna go walk into the ocean. Because yeah. I'm in pain. Cause I got a feeling that someone's gonna die and I'm not gonna like it.

Lair of Dreams by Libba Bray

I just want more Jericho content.
Also can we...can we not do love triangles...plz....It's bad for my mental health. 
Can we just let the children be happy. Please. Just let them not be dead. Is that too much to ask?
Look at all the racism and eugenics. (I mean it was the 1920s in New York, so like...)
I just love that we're pulling in all of the historical elements, and that we're also pulling in like the....the conspiracies and folklore of what the US government did when no one was looking.
