Writers & Lovers by Lily King @lilykingbooks https://t.co/1t6vyU9xTH Favorite novel that I read this year. The descriptions of the creative life are so true to life, and how could I not love a story that brings together two of my favorite things—writing and spatchcocking?!

I can't stop thinking about @Annaleen's fantastic novel Future of Another Timeline, which offers hope for these dark times. The present may be bleak, but the future isn't written yet. Resistance is not futile. https://slate.com/technology/2022/06/science-fiction-abortion-future-of-another-timeline.html https://t.co/Bz8YMPeCkj
