It’s September and that means I have a list of wonderful books you should read, including this month’s Fantastic Strangeling Book Club pick, The Fortunes of Jaded Women by Carolyn Huynh. It was exactly the zany, dramatic, messy, hopeful tale that I needed and it had me hooked from the very first line: “Everyone in Orange County’sContinue reading “Books? Books.”

It’s a good month for reading
This month’s Fantastic Strangeling Book Club choice is so, so good. It’s The Book Eaters by Sunyi Dean. I devoured this atmospherically creepy and gorgeous novel. Well, not literally.

Currently composing the very first email to the Nightmares from Nowhere Book Club and having way too much fun doing it.
Limbs down and trees touching the ground but they’re at least still standing at the moment which is more than I can say for my neighbors. Texas trees don’t know how to do ice and I’m 100% with them. Stay warm, y’all.
The February Fantastic Strangelings book pick is MAAME by @jessicabgeorge and I think you’re really going to love it. A smart, funny and poignant coming-of-age story about family, grief, duty, race, culture and finding yourself.
