Im overwhelemed at Barnes and Noble. Where to start with new fiction? I havent read anything past George Saunders. My reading and writing halted about 15 years ago. My latest was another reread of Pale Fire

>Where to start with new fiction?
Depends heavily on what you liked when you were reading and what you're in the mood for. Need more info
>Saunders
Loved everything up to Tenth of December, thought everything after that was shit to be honest
>latest was a reread of Pale Fire
Hmm. It's a total tone shift from Pale Fire, but it's short, funny, wry, uncomfortable -- "Problems" by Jade Sharma. Just finished it so I'm thinking about it. Novella in fragments, about a misanthropic fat brown woman (as she describes herself) who's cheating on her husband while hiding her heroin addiction. Refuses self-pity, which is always good. The main character Maya hates herself and knows she should. Writer OD'd shortly after the book came out, sadly
