Underrated author you wished other people know
For me, its Izumi Suzuki. I'm obsessed with her from the first collection of stories, Terminal Boredom. She was an interesting author in the realm of science fiction genre with her own twists, creating a world she pulled of so well

After years of reading submissions, I must say, if I were going to get an MFA, I would apply to Syracuse & pray to get in. I believe Syracuse students & grads are doing really unique, stand-out work.

Just finished @ClaireLombardo's epic "Same as it Ever Was," and I have no idea why she isn't getting the same treatment Jonathan Franzen did years ago. She writes with the same verbal dexterity, four times the psychological acuity, ten times the magic, and twenty times the heart.

A redditor has asked for help naming their women's horror book club, and someone's suggested Edgar Allen Hoes and oh my GOD

It's so true, @BarackObama. Tim loves his flannels.

Today the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals issued an opinion in @penguinrandom v Robbins, a lawsuit challenging book bans in Iowa.
The Court rejected the government speech doctrine, joining every other court to date in finding that the First Amendment applies in school libraries.

When I read FLUX by Jinwoo Chong two years ago, I was blown away. Ambitious and stylistically bold with a big heart and a deep message, I screamed when I got the email that he picked me as his agent.

On this International Women's Day, my gift to you is a book recommendation: FORBIDDEN NOTEBOOK by Alba de Céspedes
The critics call it "fierce" and "subversive" and it's an amazing read.

“Before he was a dungeon-pilfering rogue, a Starfleet captain, or a handsome prince, Chris Pine was an English major… dude still loves to read. And he reads everything.”

One of my 2023 favorite reads!

Was our most used appliance; I think we’re on year 15. Just bought a Zojirushi water boiler, because I drink tea all day long, and I would give up my husband before living without one again.

So this happened. WE HAVE ANOTHER @nytimes BEST SELLER IN THE HOUSE! 🙌🎊🎉 Celebrating @yrfatfriend all day today, as you do
Sales is fun, too! I always say that if you are the person who always recommends books to your friends, Sales is the job for you!
"Every one of my students want to be a YA editor at a trade publishing house. I try to encourage them to look at other jobs in publishing, like marketing. Or the invisible jobs, like working in a warehouse." -- said John Warren, prof at GW in DC. #digitalbookworld #DBW23
I read this book in a day. Or should I say in a day and a late night -- I couldn't go to sleep until I finished.

Read the article, then read the book.
Thinking about this screenshot of the front page of the @nytbooks section & how clear it is that, were she still alive, Alba would have used pages from Harry’s memoir to light her cigarettes.
@joumana_khatib’s brilliant review of FORBIDDEN NOTEBOOK (in stores Tuesday) is live!
