IRON WIDOW is the first book I’ve read in a long time that’s sucked me into its plot so completely that I’ve had to tell my family, basically, y’all need to fend for yourself for a day or two until I finish this. Thank you @XiranJayZhao!

Really struggling with despair. I need to read something that’s genuinely hopeful or just redeeming about the human race—something like BRAIDING SWEETGRASS, which got me through last year. Any recs?

My first book review of the #TransRightsReadathon is a craft analysis of a scene from Rivers Solomon’s THE DEEP. I’m reading to raise $$ for @MontroseCenter Houston, 2nd click in my clicktree to support! https://t.co/BVCMPc5zIt

I was blown away by Ozeki's MY YEAR OF MEATS and honestly surprised to find a book that came out in 1997 that's such a prescient and still deeply relevant work of climate fiction. Really excited for this discussion, and for @AllyTheGreat__ to join us! https://twitter.com/ClifiBookClub/status/1488585839533772803

Fixed the upload from yesterday! ICYMI, I review THE IRON WIDOW, RIFQA, THE RED TENT, and PERSEPHONE STATION. Tyring to get back into booktubing weekly, because it definitely inspires me to read more when I stay on top of it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KUrWCrYfBM

So what Jewish book are you reading on this day of hate? Here’s my pick. Need a suggestion? You could also read any of mine! (But DEPART, DEPART! is definitely the most Jewish of my published books) https://t.co/C0c8qgemQY

We read a whole lot of picture books over here, but this is maybe my favorite page out of all of them 🥺 From IT FEELS GOOD TO BE YOURSELF by @theresathorn and art by @noahgrigni https://t.co/s2cH5hLG4y

Both leftist thought and CRT lay bare the immoral rot at the heart of conservativism (and if you want a two-fer, check out BLACK MARXISM by Cedric Robinson), and so the right will never stop trying to suppress these ideas. And there's no magical guarantee that "truth will out."

I loved LIGHT FROM UNCOMMON STARS so much I might just make donuts, even though it’s not Hanukkah, and practice my violin, which I haven’t touched in six months. Thank you for this triumph of a book @ryka_aoki!!!
