Listings include a middle-grade juvenile science fiction title and adult fiction focused on crime and thrillers; several adult entries emphasize crime-related themes.

Page counts run from 304 pages (the middle-grade title) up to 352 pages for several adult novels, so the listed range is about 304–352 pages.

The listings target middle-grade readers (recommended 8–12 years) for the juvenile title and adults (listed as 22 years and up) for the crime/thriller novels.

Listings note bestseller placements, starred reviews, awards and nominations, and inclusion on year-end or notable lists for several adult titles.

The middle-grade entry mentions interior illustrations alongside its time-travel story and other descriptive material for young readers.

Most adult novels credit S A Cosby as the sole author, while the middle-grade listing shows S A Cosby credited alongside a co-author.
