Staff Picks: Portia Turner’s Favorites
Hi! I’m Portia and I work in marketing for Zeitgeist, an imprint focused on practical nonfiction for adults and children. I can usually be found listening to a romance audiobook while I work and also love a good creepy house book. I read a bit of everything but focus on fiction and memoirs. When I’m not reading, you will most likely find me obsessively crocheting while binging reality TV. Follow me on Instagram and TikTok at @portiabturner for more on the books I am reading and loving.

by Daryl Gregory
I read this book when it first came out many years ago and haven’t stopped thinking about it. An absolutely delightful read about a family of psychics just trying to get through while their lives are crumbling around them.

A Scatter of Light
by Malinda Lo
This book found me at the perfect time in my life. While it isn’t the main plot, this book tells the story of the love between an artist grandmother and her granddaughter who is trying to find her own place in the world. I read this while deep in recreating a piece of my own grandmother’s art as a way to connect with her memory. (Check out my TikTok for updates on this project!)

The Husbands: A Read with Jenna Pick
by Holly Gramazio
An absolutely delightful recent read. I love books that take place in our reality with something slightly off and this fits the mold! This is the hilarious story of a woman who comes home one night to learn that her attic is suddenly magical.
