Hey Team: the @nprpolitics inaugural book club is fast approaching! I am plowing through “What Were We Thinking,” by @CarlosLozadaWP, and I hope you are, too! Discussion starts later this week on https://t.co/CInSEbXjhN. Join the group and get your questions ready!

@kelsey_snell Ruth Ware! One by One is a fun one.

Elizabeth Warren’s book “Persist” is out this week. And I reviewed it. The book is......fine. The book is fine. It’s a policy primer (of course) and a Dem lovefest (one person excepted), and contains a rage-inducing (and slightly baffling) MeToo story. https://t.co/hMGWIEmGKj

I am plowing through The Family Roe for our next @nprpolitics book club and....people, this book is amazing. Just a gripping and un-put-down-able history of Jane Roe (Norma McCorvey) and her case. Read it -- conversation/podcast to come in mid-September! https://t.co/btTXvlmCqb

If *you* are like Carolyn here and have questions about Bowling Alone, I am talking to Robert Putnam next week for the @nprpolitics book club! TELL ME YOUR QUESTIONS. Reply with them! https://t.co/XOuorsjaaD

Today in coming to various books late… “Entitled” by @kate_manne is just brain-melting. Such a simple and clear dive into misogyny and where/how we encounter it.

Finished “Those who leave and those who stay” and hooooo no one will ever write a fuckboy better than Elena Ferrante wrote Nino Sarratore.

My fellow readers: The book Geek Love by Katherine Dunn. Oh my God go read this book now. And then talk to me about it.

I do want a House of Leaves adaptation so hard…..and yet I also recognize this as the ultimate MFA Dude reading list and will not be taking questions. https://t.co/HbblfKA4NG
