I liked this novel, MEREDITH, ALONE by Claire Alexander. About a woman so traumatized she hasn't left her house in three years -- but who copes in rather wonderful ways. https://t.co/ACGVnlYQDg @GrandCentralPub @ClaireAWriter https://t.co/cDo2e6ZOFQ

@EllenAkins @LauraMcCallumB @mitchellzuckoff @nightnewspam in her column, @laura_yuen chats with Jody Lulich, whose memoir we excerpted a few weeks ago ("In the Company of Grace") And, finally, in my bookmark column, I say goodbye. After 15 years in this job, I am moving on. Thanks everyone, for so very much. https://t.co/1rHsOfoHR8

@tiernanhenry This is actually the advance reader copy of Margaret Atwood’s THE TESTAMENTS, The sequel to the handmaid‘s tale. The publisher printed the arcs under a fake title and fake author to keep everything completely on the QT..
