Absolutely loved @somers.bsky.social's new novel The Ten Year Affair. I really dug the original short story but everything she did to expand upon and deepen the characters is so thoughtful and insightful. It's also incredibly funny. Easily one of my favorite books of 2025.

This book is funny, astute, real and sexy. I think I had an affair with it? 10/10 no regrets. You should try it.
