This was interesting, although I finished listening to it on the way to and from my parents' for Christmas - which meant I listened to the parts about 9/11 and the years following - which was not the right mood for Christmas.

Browsing the new BookPage this morning. I‘ll definitely be reading the new Whitehead. I think I might wait for audio though (I‘m in my library queue). Tagged nonfiction, out in October, caught my eye. Also excited for the new Ayana Mathis, The Unsettled, and Viet Thanh Nguyen‘s memoir, A Man of Two Faces. And, of course, the new titles from Lauren Groff and Zadie Smith. Lots to look forward to!

squirrelbrain The tagged book does sound good. I have both the Groff and Smith as #netgalley ARCs. Will get to both soon; just reading the new Ann Patchett first. 1y
JamieArc A group of us read Harlem Shuffle for LMPBC and I liked it much more than I thought I would. I feel like I have too many other books I want to read right now, but will definitely read this follow up. 1y
jlhammar @squirrelbrain Very excited for Tom Lake - can't wait to hear what you think! 1y

jlhammar @JamieArc I didn't love Harlem Shuffle, but I liked it enough to continue with this trilogy. I'm a big Whitehead fan so I'll read whatever he writes. 1y
BookwormM I am just starting Crook Manifesto 1y
JamieArc Right after I wrote that I went to the grocery store and discovered he was on Fresh Air with Terry Gross, giving an interesting interview. After that, SA Cosby was interviewed, which I liked even more. 1y
jlhammar @JamieArc Definitely going to give that a listen - thank you! 1y
