"Dead Collections" by Isaac Fellman is a gem of a book. Beautifully written, full of wry humor and sweetness, and with a main character who you will totally recognize. Sol Katz is a geeky neurotic trans Jewish vampire who is crashing on the DL in his San Francisco office where he works as an archivist. He meets a widow who has come to donate her famous wife's papers. Weird (weirder?) shit starts happening. This book is in many ways more vibes than plot, but SUCH VIBES. I will definitely be regularly re-reading this one. It is aimed at adults, mostly because it will go over younger folk's heads.
Minor: Transphobia
