25 of the Best New Books to Add to Your Reading List This Spring

Catherine House is a school unlike any other—once you are admitted, tuition is free. But that does not mean that there isn't a price to pay. A gothic debut filled with suspense, this was the book that Elisabeth Thomas was born to write. Her grandfather was one of three Black men in Yale's class of 1953, and her father followed in his footsteps, just as she did. Her time at Yale, as well as the respect for higher education that was instilled in her, inspired this novel. Catherine House is a page turner that is equal parts dark, dreamy, and disturbing.
