Recs if you like Strangers on a Train...
you are a regular guy!
you can enter a space. you are a regular guy, you can enter a room. you are a regular guy, you can do that transaction. you are a regular guy, you know how to answer the phone. you are a regular guy, you know what sleep is. you are a regular guy, you know what it means to be you.
all of these books have regular people as the protagonist doing all sorts of things, from kissing to killing!

Books Mentioned In The Midcentury NYC Series
Thought I would make a list to highlight the books that are mentioned in this series due to the role they play in bringing the characters closer, plus I think it's neat Cat Sebastian showcased some openly queer books from the time period. Also putting both of the Midcentury NYC books in here as well cause it just made sense to do so and the characters share their thoughts on these books as well.
