Holly Gramiazo's The Husbands
This premise is a bit hard to explain but it’s kind of a magical realism/alternate universe sort of thing, where one evening a woman comes home and a dude is in her apartment; he’s apparently her husband but she isn’t married and doesn’t know him. And then it turns out every time a husband goes into the attic, a new husband comes down, and she’s in a different version of her life. I really liked the narrative voice here and this story was compelling enough that I read it all in one sitting. And I ended up really liking how it wrapped up, too. Recommended if you want something on the lighter side that is still interesting! A-.
