Arwen's Pick

This slim read about a Norwegian ferry driver’s last day alive was impactful and beautifully written. The reader follows the main character as he is joined by his beloved dead and reflects on his life.

Nicole's Pick

I read this book in 2 1/2 days! The author’s voice is humorous and clear and I appreciated the interrogation of the archive- as a search through history and as a means of record keeping. The questions of who gets remembered and what we can divine from documents of a hostile state were compelling and thought provoking. This book is perfect for history lovers & any looking for their own queer heroes.

Aurelia’s Pick

Another amazing story from Rebecca Kuang! This dark academia fantasy about two students who venture to hell for recommendations from a dead professor pulls from mythology and Dante’s Inferno but is entirely its own story.

Charlee's Pick

I recently revisited The Argonauts - Maggie Nelson’s philosophical memoir - and was reminded why I loved it the first time. Would recommend to anyone!

Miranda’s Pick

This thin book is serving as a bit of light in the dark. Timely & a great resource reference for the times we find ourselves in. Building & caring for community is more important than ever.
