One of 2020’s standout novels for me, Kiley Reid’s terrific debut gives barbed commentary on problematic race relations and self-congratulatory white feminism. Such A Fun Age brilliantly eviscerates”woke” culture and lays bare the duplicity that lies beneath. This makes it a fantastic book club pick as it addresses timely themes both on and off-line and

I always take note of the writer’s pen. What has begun as a mild curiosity more than a few decades ago has now become a mild obsession. What pen (or pencil) does a writer prefer? Do they use the inexpensive ballpoint pen, the felt tip pen, an upscale gel pen, or the sublime cartridge pen?
When it came out in June 2017, it only took a few months for Wonder Woman to become the highest-grossing superhero origin film of all time.

First she had to get past the anger and disappointment about not being able to be a
The recent Newbery Award for Jerry Craft’s New Kid feels like an acknowledgment of what most tween readers already know: graphic novels that deal with the ups and downs of middle school life make for great reading.

International Women’s Day is around the corner on March 8, and what can be a better time to celebrate feminism?

Yetide Badaki as Bilquis was one of the best things to come out of the Starz American Gods adaptation.
