Where Evil Lurks (New York Times)

Kate Dehler, NY Times

I'm quite chuffed to see WONDERLAND lead off Danielle Trussoni's newest horror column in the New York Times! 

“If art imitates life, horror fiction is a great mimic, predicting and exploring the frightening and surreal realities of the contemporary world. Exhibit A: Zoje Stage’s mind-bending, trippy second novel…the question of responsibility for the nightmare lingers, as does the line between reality and imagination…”

This is a hot summer for horror! You can read the full New York Times article here.

WONDERLAND - NOW AVAILABLE

WONDERLAND is officially out in the world! We had a great online book launch, hosted by Mystery Lovers Bookshop here in Pittsburgh. I wasn't sure if an online book launch would really "feel" like a launch, but I got to "see" people I hadn't seen in a while and answer lots of interesting questions. So yes, it did feel like a launch! And Mystery Lovers has signed copies of WONDERLAND that can be ordered online.

A flurry of activity has been happening with WONDERLAND these last few days. My favorite podcast, BOOKED, did a review. I'd been very anxious, as they were big fans of BABY TEETH and I really respect their opinions, so I've been on pins & needles for awhile, hoping that WONDERLAND would live up to their expectations. You can listen to their review here.

I was also featured in the Pittsburgh City Paper, and WONDERLAND was selected by the editors of Audible as an Audible July Pick. I try to update the WONDERLAND PAGE with all of the most pertinent news, so check it out from time to time if you're interested. 

BookPage July 2020

I got a sneak peek from BookPage of the feature/review they were going to run for WONDERLAND,and I'm so excited to finally be able to share it. This is a crazy time to be publishing a sophomore novel (or any novel) - amid a pandemic and political and economical uncertainty - so now more than ever I have to celebrate the bright moments when they happen. And this review was definitely a bright moment! Not only does it make ME want to read WONDERLAND, but it shares the same page with Paul Tremblay's SURVIVOR SONG - which I've been dying to read.
