Dive Bar at the End of the Road by Kelley Armstrong
A spoiler-free review of Dive Bar at the End of the Road by Kelley Armstrong: a stormy Michigan detour, a pileup against one fallen tree, and a roadside bar where every stranded driver meets the thing they fear most. How the machine works, where it creaks, and who should take the detour.
Broken Rival by Tessa Bailey
A scientist's daughter stranded fifty years in the past is taken in by a Kansas pastor's family, loved by one son and loathed by the other. Bailey's first move away from comedy is a big, swoony, sometimes bloody time-travel romance whose rivalry is its engine and whose worldbuilding talks too much.
Victorious by V.E. Schwab
Victor Vale is powerless, running out of medicine and counting the hours, while a soft-spoken new director remakes EON from the inside. Schwab's Villains finale is a two-clock thriller that pays off three books of rivalry, with a slow present-day strand and a crowded last act.
