The Hero of This Book
Elizabeth McCrackenMaria Dahvana HeadleyReading @elizmccracken's The Hero of this Book, because I saw @alexanderchee posting passages and immediately knew I had to read it posthaste. As should you. This bit about how characters written without physical specifics feel ungrounded is so damn accurate. https://t.co/aYdjEtwDVL

Jade Cabinet

Orlam
Pj HarveyMaria Dahvana HeadleyI got a treat book, one it's obvious I'm gonna be into, because it's a book length poem in the Dorset dialect by PJ Harvey, and hi, it's all my favorite sorts of things at once. Oh, and also, Orlam is a sentient lamb's eyeball oracle, so. Greetings, Book That Maria Has Coveted. https://t.co/76GFMNQbEH
