In speculative fiction I’d like to see more climate-related books. Just learned about popping shrimp. Crazy. Books like Dry for adult audiences. #queryme #MSWL querymanager.com/query/Jessica_…

Dante Medema @DanteMedema

currently reading: THE GREAT ALONE

I love LOVE the area this book is set (outside Homer) and have wanted to set a book here for a long time. This story is BEAUTIFUL and makes me ache from the insides in the best way. Her descriptions of my state make my heart so happy.

This on my #mswl

The Wall Street Journal @WSJ

The children of the college admissions scandal grapple with the fallout. “I don’t know who you are anymore, mom.” on.wsj.com/2RpMF4R

This is a book I'd like to see. Parents who go too far because they think they're protecting their kids. This is both fiction and nonfiction depending on your take. #mswl
