Consent: A Memoir
Vanessa Springora
Objecting to this individual’s article and his disturbing history of sexualizing minors, frequently w/o consent, reminds me of the story of Vanessa Springora, groomed and abused at age 14 by a French literary darling, Gabriel Matzeff. He, too, his his pedophilia in plain sight.

The Button Man
Wayne Depriest
I had a terrible nightmare last night about a serial killer called The Button Man, who would leave homespun dolls, à la Raggedy Ann, at crime scenes. Each had eyes sewn on of buttons of different sizes. This dream brought to you by Reddit true crime and an NYT crossword clue.

Hope: In a Lost and Fallen World
Guy A. Only
I posted about monkeypox vaccine availability in LA, but the county health clinic has already run out and is only giving it to those who have been “in close contact” w/someone who has it. How is that being determined? You get an email. So I hope you and that guy exchanged them.

The House with a Clock in Its Walls
John Bellairs
@AndrewPlewe @rina_gill If you can find them at all, I’d recommend putting the entire œuvre of John Bellairs into these kids’ hands. They’re advanced readers already so these books will be easy reads. But they’re just terrific _stories_. The House with a Clock in Its Walls is a good start.
