I haven’t read a book in almost two months. Usually by this point in the year, I have surpassed my reading goal by 10–20 books.  This year, I will be ending the year 30 books behind my annual goal. It’s fine. I’m fine. Along with reading, I have found it difficult to concentrate on scripted television,

On Monday morning, Netflix dropped the first official full length trailer for Bridgerton, the new series based on the Julia Quinn romance book series and adapted by Chris Van Dusen and Shonda Rhimes. As the first series in Rhimes’s producing deal with Netflix and one of the biggest adaptations of a romance novel, fans from

I will always lean toward a mesmerizing ghost story. Provocative and reflective, emotional and intimate. And the eerier, the better (ghosts kind of fit that bill, of course). So when I finally sat down to watch The Haunting of Bly Manor (the follow-up to The Haunting of Hill House on Netflix), I realized quickly that

Since Hillbilly Elegy came out in 2016, I’ve experienced countless people claiming to now “understand” where I come from and what Appalachian people are like. But they don’t think of my childhood watching my dad lose himself while arranging music on his piano or my grandfather tenderly nurturing plants in his ridiculously large garden. Instead,

As a high school English teacher, the quest to keep my curriculum relevant to my students is ongoing. I’m always on the lookout for new stories or authors that I can bring in the classroom to ensure that it’s something my students haven’t read or seen before.

This has been a reading year like no other. For some people, it meant reading more than ever before, while for others, concentrating on a book has been almost impossible. I’ve had to face the sad truth that even if my library is closed and I am unemployed for weeks at a time, I somehow

We’ve seen the best of lists, including Amazon’s best of 2020 and The New York Times best of 2020. Those lists, determined by editors, don’t necessarily showcase what it is customers or readers were picking up this year — and while the Goodreads Choice Awards certainly give insight into what readers want to see the

Reading was one of my first true loves. I can’t really remember a time when I wasn’t reading. Some of my earliest memories involve curling up with my parents and “reading” to them from my favorite children’s books that I had memorized from repeated retellings. My relatives were always impressed by my dedication to reading,

It’s no exaggeration to say that 2020 has been one of the toughest years in living memory. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating medical impact, and a knock-on economic impact that the world will be feeling for a while to come. Many people have lost their day jobs as a result of the crisis

If you’re like me, you enjoy knowing what everyone else is interested in or looking at—I suspect if you’ve picked up a bestselling novel, you’re right in that camp.
