Summer Reading in Full Swing
Let’s be real, we’re all going to be finished watching the new season of The Bear before the weekend is over, and we’re going to need something to read. Lucky for all of us, July’s new releases include some bangers. I’ve got my eye on Long Island Compromise (Fleishman is in Trouble was 🤌, and Hulu’s adaptation was solid), Someone Like Us by Dinaw Mengestu, and the new Lev Grossman, which riffs on Arthurian legends. If paperbacks are more your jam, July will bring a bunch of good ones, too.
Any day you get a press release about a new Robin Wall Kimmerer book is a good day. The Serviceberry—coming out November 19, just in time to help us recover from the election—promises “a bold and inspiring vision for how to orient our lives around gratitude, reciprocity, and community, based on the lessons of the natural world.” Say no more.
