The National Book Awards went off without a hitch again last night, which was pretty amazing, considering the entire ceremony was held virtually because of the pandemic.

I am fascinated by book as objects. Obviously, I love reading, and I am a big proponent of audiobooks. I don’t even mind reading ebooks! There is something special, though, about the paper book. I find comfort in being surround by them even if they’re stories I have no interest in reading. In my years
What if real life suddenly worked like a video game? That’s the question posed by the wildly popular manhwa The Gamer (hosted on Webtoon) by author Sung Sang-Yoing. The Gamer shows us a world that runs on the same rules as a role playing game, or RPG. If you want to get good at something
The internet can be a scary place. As a writer/journalist, I’ve already had my fair share of the online harassment experience. Since online bullying always happens, it can be a “normal part of the job” for some. In fact, the majority of online harassment cases that involve journalists are never reported. If you’re a journalist,

Superheroes, like too many things in life, are very white. For decades, the only people of color you could find in mainstream comics were a) villains, b) horrible stereotypes, or c) both. It took a long time for heroes of color to start showing up. Even then, it was a trickle rather than a flood.
Community helpers star in children’s books from board books to picture books. As a former elementary school teacher, I remember the lessons we taught on this topic every year.

When I was a library worker, I was tasked with increasing circulation among a certain part of the library’s collection. So I did what was very on trend: I wrapped the books up and add a little mystery gift tag to them. They flew off the shelves. Everyone loves a gift. I had distilled each

If we’re comparing tragedies this year, one of the smallest possible ones would be how much I’ve missed traveling in 2020. Yet, traveling and exploring new cities has always been one of the anchoring points in my life. Thankfully, I’ve found a small piece of that with Airbnb online experiences, “traveling” to Japan for a

October, for me, is all about beautiful light and crunching leaves under my feet, adding cardigans back into my wardrobe, and the still relatively new school year full of hope and resolutions. I believe in enjoying each season in its turn and not constantly rushing onto the next thing. If anyone tries to play Christmas
Eleven months out of the year, I read only the occasional horror novel, but as soon as October comes around I’m ready for all the creepy books.

“The…what?” I hear you say. Saddle up, partners, and let’s explore western gothic, a genre you have definitely heard of but maybe never had a definition for. What is Western Gothic?

At the turn of the new year, I decided to invest in a modest Moleskine journal and told myself that I would document my most comprehensive, most astute thoughts about the books I finished in 2020.
