@david_mitchell @CrimeReads @jeffvandermeer @colsonwhitehead @laurenbeukes Thanks so much! When I got my first book deal in '05 from Random House, my editor sent me a copy of the new CLOUD ATLAS. So it will always have a special place in my heart, and not simply for being such an amazing book. (And I think of GHOSTWRITTEN's unnamed spirit often...)

I’m loving THE THOUSAND CRIMES OF MING TSU by @tom_lin__ Great premise, story, characters, language, inventiveness. Also: circus freaks. https://t.co/d8X7hvmwmm

Erik Larson’s The Splendid and the Vile has forever changed the way I think of the phases of the moon. Now I look at tonight’s sky and think, uh oh, this is good bombing weather.

Thanks @atlantawritersclub for a lovely Townsend Prize ceremony; so great to see friends old and new and bond over books! And congrats to my fellow Writers House author @sanjenasathian for taking home the prize for GOLD DIGGERS! (Also: I remembered how to tie a tie!) https://t.co/KKM7NYRMe2

Killer line from DEMON COPPERHEAD by Barbara Kingsolver: “The wicked have a different head for numbers than most. Any bad they do will wind up on the side of never-mind. What’s done to them weighs double.”

Hard to say anything new about Blade Runner ('82), other than the obvious point that the author of its source material, Philip K Dick, is the godfather of so much imaginative SF, speculative, whatever-you-want-to-call-it works from the last few decades. https://t.co/1tXdBl2Lko

HELL OF A BOOK by @JasonMott is aptly named. Smart, powerful, moving, and very, very funny. Loved it. https://bookshop.org/books/hell-of-a-book-9780593414279/9780593330968
