If you want to access the 2025 PSRG, there are three ways to get it this year:
Upgrade to the paid version of this newsletter. You can get the PSRG for as little as $5 by subscribing this month or by upgrading to an annual plan for only $40—this sale ends tonight!! By sticking around for the year, you’ll get my new series Margin Notes deep diving into three PSRG titles followed by a fall readalong of one of my favorite books of all time. Of course, you’ll also get year round book recommendations and exclusive podcasts from me! By joining now with either a monthly or yearly subscription, you can also attend our PSRG Roundtable on Zoom today, Friday, May 23rd at 11am MT / 1pm ET (a recording will be available after the fact if you can’t make it live).

Purchase the PSRG as a standalone item through my Buy Me a Coffee Page. If a subscription or membership isn’t right for you, you can buy the standalone PSRG for $10 through my Buy Me a Coffee Page. In your purchase confirmation page, you’ll also get a link to attend attend our PSRG Roundtable on Zoom today, Friday, May 23rd at 11am MT / 1pm ET. Unfortunately, we are unable to send standalone purchasers the recording after the event. Sending the Zoom link to standalone purchasers is new for us and we are prepared for glitches! If you do not receive your Zoom link, please email fictionmattersbooks@gmail.com with a screenshot of your PSRG purchase and we will send you the link!
Whatever option you choose, I hope I’m able to put something wonderful on your summer reading list this year! If you have questions, please respond directly to this newsletter or email me at fictionmattersbooks@gmail.com.
