I’ve taken a little break from book blogging, but I had to return for one of the best books I’ve read in a really long time: Susan Orlean’s The Library Book.
What happens when a software engineer at a Google-like company gets left a mysterious starter dough? She starts baking it. Robin Sloan's second novel, Sourdough, is weird. But a good weird.
Ling Ma's debut novel, Severance, asks the question: what would a millennial do in the apocalypse?
This was the most delightful book I've read in a long time. Seriously.
Sharlene Teo's debut novel is set in Singapore and centers on the intense friendship of two girls.
Adrienne Celt’s book, Invitation to a Bonfire, pieces together diary pages from a fictional young woman named Zoya, and love letters from a fictional Russian writer named Leo "Lev" Orlov (based on Vladimir Nabokov). In doing so, she builds up sexual and violent tension to a point where I hit the end of the novel and thought, HOLY SHIT.
The book is a really fun mix of fantasy, espionage, and navigating paranormal monsters and government bureaucracy.
