    Jul 21 2025
    Why do boys gatekeep some of the best sci-fi/fantasy? We certainly aren't afraid of big, wordy books. Pierce Brown's "Red Rising" has had a renewed interest thanks to TikTok - and we think largely to the BookTok girls.

    Jun 30 2025
    Ann Patchett wrote an excellent summer read in "Tom Lake." It's set on a lake and a cherry farm in Michigan in the summer. But it has some very deep topics included - like time spent together during a pandemic. Is this the pandemic lit we've been looking for?
