Make Sure You Die Screaming by Zee Carlstrom Description: A call from their mother with the news that their MAGA-friendly, conspiracy-theorist father has gone missing launches the narrator from Chicago to deep red Arkansas in a stolen car. Along the way, the narrator and their new bestie―a self-proclaimed "garbage goth" with her own emotional baggage (and someone on her tail)―unpack the narrator’s childhood and a recent personal loss that they refuse to face head-on.
