We are delighted to reveal the cover for You Weren’t Meant to be Human by Andrew Joseph White!
Designed by Jane Tibbetts, we hope you love this cover as much as we do.
From award-winning author Andrew Joseph White, this grisly debut adult novel probes identity, survival, and transformation amidst an alien invasion.
Festering masses of worms and flies have taken root in dark corners across Appalachia. In exchange for unwavering loyalty and fresh corpses, these hives offer a few struggling humans salvation. A fresh start. It's an offer that none refuse.
Crane is grateful. Among his hive's followers, Crane has found a chance to transition, to never speak again, to live a life that won't destroy him. He even met Levi: a handsome ex-Marine and brutal killer who treats him like a real man, mostly. But when Levi gets Crane pregnant—and the hive demands the child's birth, no matter the cost—Crane's desperation to make it stop will drive the community that saved him into a devastating spiral that can only end in blood.
Perfect for fans of Alien and Midsommar.
Available in hardback and ebook on 9 September 2025.
