These are the books I‘m most looking forward to so far this next year!

Batman: Nightwalker releases Jan. 2018, Force of Nature in Feb. 2018, and Zenith in Jan. 2018.

I love being a bookseller 💚 Are there any books you are excited for?

They wanted angry candidates warring against culture as a whole. What they wanted, and what they would get, was rage.

The Haunting of Hill House | Shirley Jackson

Shirley Jackson is a Queen and her novels The Haunting of Hill House and We Have Always Lived in the Castle are perfect for the Halloween season.

A striking novel about right, wrong, and the areas in between. Ng takes a typical Ohio suburb and makes the inhabitants face their innate prejudices and privilege.

The Nix | Nathan Hill

In 1968, in Faye's small Iowa river town, the girls of the graduating class knew - though never spoke of it - dozens of ways to get rid of unplanned, unwanted, and unborn children.

Picking up "A Wrinkle in Time"! I wanted to make sure I read it before the movie release ☺️

The.Intentional.Reader That "Wrinkle in Time" cover is amazing! Is that a Barnes and Noble edition? 7y

Meddling Kids | Edgar Cantero
post image
Pickpick

"The universally understood joke in the title of Edgar Cantero‘s newest novel stands in juxtaposition to the gritty and realistic nature of the story within, where we see our heroes 10-years on, dealing with PTSD and disillusionment.”

Review up on my site!

I connected deeply with the story told within these pages. It was like finding a kindred spirit.

“There is a consistent trend in mainstream books, television, and movies when it comes to LGBTQ characters - they either die or are cardboard cutouts of actual characters meant to add diversity to the story. That is why The Price of Salt by Patricia Highsmith was a standout when it was written, and continues to be a standout today.”

New review up on my site - “It is not very often that a strong Asian, female, LGBTQ voice (what a combo, right?) breaks through the noise – but I‘m glad it did, and that I got to hear it.”
