That’s evident in the most exciting new books coming in May. In [Cleyvis Natera’s](https://time.com/5928689/concrete-rose-review-angie-thomas/) debut novel, _Neruda on the Park_, a family reckons with what “home” means to them. In Rachel M. Harper’s _The Other Mother_, a young pianist seeks out the truth about his origins—despite the ripple effects that will surely play out. And in [Adrian McKinty’s](https://time.com/collection/must-read-books-2019/5724592/the-chain/) taut thriller _The Island_, a new stepmom tests the limits of how far she’ll go to protect her kids. Here, the 14 best new books to read in May. ## **_Chef’s Kiss, TJ Alexander_** **(May 3)**  Simone is a pedantic pastry chef working in a _Bon Appétit_\-style test kitchen, where she’d prefer to stay behind the scenes. But when her company decides to pivot to video, she’s forced into the spotlight—and has to deal with her unbearably chirpy colleague Ray. Eventually, the two bond, and Simone tries to be a good friend when Ray shares that they are non-binary. It’s hard to say what’s sweeter: the pair’s slow-burn romance or the drool-worthy descriptions of decadent desserts. **Buy Now:** _Chef’s Kiss_ on [Bookshop](https://bookshop.org/a/4973/9781982189082) | [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Chefs-Kiss-Novel-TJ-Alexander/dp/1982189088/ref=tmm%5Fpap%5Fswatch%5F0?%5Fencoding=UTF8&qid=1651099661&sr=8-1&%5Fencoding=UTF8&tag=time-books-22-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=25066193b56b392f491cce7983d00dd0&camp=1789&creative=9325) ## **_All the Lovers in the Night_** **, Mieko Kawakami (May 3)**  If you’ve ever caught your reflection in a storefront window and been shocked—not in a good way—by what’s staring back at you, you’ll understand Fuyoko Irie. She’s a Japanese 30-something who’s unable to form meaningful relationships, but resolves to change once she meets a man named Mitsutsuka. As she begins to knock down the protective walls she built around herself, she learns more about why she is the way she is, and who she wants to be. Kawakami—the author of titles such as [_Breasts and_ _Eggs_ ](https://time.com/collection/must-read-books-2020/5904431/breasts-and-eggs/)and _Heaven_—has crafted another atmospheric, subtly beautiful novel. **Buy Now:** _All the Lovers in the Night_ on [Bookshop](https://bookshop.org/a/4973/9781609456993) | [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/All-Lovers-Night-Mieko-Kawakami/dp/1609456998/ref=sr%5F1%5F1?crid=2CI5BGARTNK6Z&keywords=All+the+Lovers+in+the+Night&qid=1651099904&sprefix=siren+queen%252C+nghi+vo%252Caps%252C71&sr=8-1&%5Fencoding=UTF8&tag=time-books-22-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=5c227e453b26f951423ce07bbcdc438e&camp=1789&creative=9325) ## **_Companion Piece_** **, Ali Smith (May 3)**  [Ali Smith’s _Seasonal Quartet_](https://time.com/5098584/ali-smith-winter/)—composed of the novels _Autumn_, _Winter_, _Spring_, and _Summer_—was lauded by many as a fantastic literary feat. Her new novel _Companion Piece_ is equally lyrical and timely. It’s about Sandy, an artist whose elderly father is in the hospital during the coronavirus pandemic. Though Sandy is careful to isolate and stay healthy, unexpected house guests disrupt her lockdown existence. Smith’s novel will push readers to consider what it means to let people into your life, even when you don’t want to. **Buy Now:** _Companion Piece_ on [Bookshop](https://bookshop.org/a/4973/9780593316375) | [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Companion-Piece-Novel-Ali-Smith/dp/0593316371/ref=tmm%5Fhrd%5Fswatch%5F0?%5Fencoding=UTF8&qid=1651099723&sr=8-1&%5Fencoding=UTF8&tag=time-books-22-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=e505bb5f39289efc94f88ad5200ff62c&camp=1789&creative=9325) ## **_We Do What We Do in the Dark_** **, Michelle Hart (May 3)**  When Mallory is a freshman in college, she begins an obsessive affair with an older, married woman—fueled, perhaps, by her loneliness and the void created by her mother’s death.

She steals, she forges, she squats in places she doesn’t belong, and she rubs everyone she meets the wrong way. Then she encounters a man who’s determined to make her tell the truth. It’s exactly what you’d expect from Waters: weird, perverse, and gloriously fun. **Buy Now:** _Liarmouth: A Feel-Bad Romance_ on [Bookshop](https://bookshop.org/a/4973/9780374185725) | [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Liarmouth-Feel-Bad-Romance-John-Waters/dp/0374185727/ref=sr%5F1%5F1?crid=2V7NY7X6YI4RN&keywords=Liarmouth%253A+A+Feel-Bad+Romance%252C+John+Waters&qid=1651099785&sprefix=liarmouth+a+feel-bad+romance%252C+john+waters%252Caps%252C130&sr=8-1&%5Fencoding=UTF8&tag=time-books-22-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=4dccb81e1095bbd9086fcc14bb3a769a&camp=1789&creative=9325) ## **_The Other Mother_** **, Rachel M.

Harper’s gripping follow-up to _This Side of Providence_. When Jenry meets Jasper’s father, he learns that the person he should really be searching for is Jasper’s sister—his mother’s ex-girlfriend. Unraveling the past and digging up old secrets soon complicates the relationships Jenry long believed he could trust. **Buy Now:** _The Other Mother_ on [Bookshop](https://bookshop.org/a/4973/9781640095045) | [Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Other-Mother-Rachel-M-Harper/dp/1640095047/ref=sr%5F1%5F1?crid=1YTCBCMZD9WS0&keywords=The+Other+Mother%252C+Rachel+M.+Harper&qid=1651099805&sprefix=the+other+mother%252C+rachel+m.+harper%252Caps%252C73&sr=8-1&%5Fencoding=UTF8&tag=time-books-22-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=b0238a3e30458b739a5cbfdd85fba11e&camp=1789&creative=9325) ## **_Bitter Orange Tree_** **, Jokha Alharthi (May 10)**  Jokha Alharthi’s novel [_Celestial Bodies_](https://time.com/5696964/celestial-bodies-jokha-alharthi-review/) won the Booker International Prize in 2019\.
