“A desert gothic that clings to you like sand, My Lips, Her Voice threads the raw intensity of Sadie through needles of cozy, creeping horror as sharp as cholla spines. Equal parts tender and pulse-pounding, L. L. Madrid’s debut is a must-read for fans of multi-generational thrillers where spectral vengeance collides with feminist resilience. At its heart shimmers a queer love story that thirsts for justice—bold and forbidden as the ironwood tree guarding the town’s bloodiest grave. A grim reminder: some roots grow twisted in the dark.”

—River K. Scott, author of Dying Ember, Olden Ash
