So, you’ve already marathoned all of season two of Netflix’s highly successful series The Umbrella Academy. Now what? (This is why you should never marathon too much of a good thing, but I’m not your mother). Unfortunately, season 3 has yet to be confirmed, but given the end-of-season cliffhanger as well as the series’ popularity,

It’s a sign of progress that a list like this even exists, let alone contains just some of the books releasing soon that feature nonbinary characters between their pages. For a while there, these characters were pretty much nonexistent, or worse, authors depicted them with complete disrespect. Although most of the world is a garbage

Time to get real. We’re several months into the Pandemic Times. We saw the rise of trendy TikTok recipes like Dalgona coffee. We watched Tiger King, The Untamed, and Unsolved Mysteries. We named our sourdough starters. Maybe it’s time for a new hobby. Let’s say you picked up some new manga earlier this year. Are

It struck me not long ago that B-list comics villains, especially those with roots in the DC mythos, have enjoyed a renaissance since the advent of The CW’s Arrowverse. Their presence has been particularly notable on The Flash, where not only have we been treated to a revival of Mark Hamill’s Trickster and the cerebrally enhanced Gorilla Grodd,

What is it about high school that makes us return to it as a well for stories over and over again? Maybe it’s that it’s a unique time in life where we felt like grown-ups, but we were stuck in systems that treated us like children. We started to have a complex understanding of the

If a good book has ever sucked you into a truly fantastic plot twist, then you know the struggle of wanting to keep turning pages long past your bedtime. It’s not a great idea to make a habit of this, especially if you prefer to read on work nights. If you’re prone to insomnia, then

I admit I can be a bit of a pedant. It’s not entirely my fault; I come by it naturally, with an English teacher for a mother and the lineage of librarians of which I’m a part. Arguments in my household require citations from reputable sources. I do try to use my tendency for good,

The Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher is a lot of people’s doorway into the world of urban fantasy. A very vast world. It’s a genre that got its start back in the late 1980s, and has had time to grow a plenty and can be time consuming to navigate unguided. But there are a

Summer is finally coming to an end, and that means it’s time to treat yourself to some delightfully cozy literary fall decor.

There’s something about sports romance that easily makes it my favorite sub-genre. The stakes, the uniforms, the tropes—all of it just speaks to me. And luckily for me as a queer reader, there are plenty of sports romances with LGBTQ relationships. If you like your sports romance books the way I do (that is, incredibly

I’ve taken my toddler to just about every election since her birth. We both get “I Voted” stickers, then I take pictures and post them to social media. But I hadn’t really discussed what voting is all about with her until recently. My SO and I have talked more about voting in the past month

If you told me nine years ago about a Hunger Games prequel, I’d be booking my spot for its midnight release at Borders Books. I first devoured The Hunger Games Trilogy as an 18-year-old (back in the final glory days of Borders). Suzanne Collins’s dystopian world immediately ensnared me. The world and the Katniss-Peeta-Gale love
