Dear fellow bibliophiles,
First, apologies for the late post; the last few weeks have been pretty hectic and I'm only just now getting caught up.
Again, there are several selections that will help with the 2017 Read Harder Challenge. N.K. Jemisin's The Fifth Season is an excellent, award-winning fantasy novel (review coming soon), Chang's The Wangs vs. the World is a debut novel that NPR describes as " unrelentingly fun", and Ben Ratliff's Every Song Ever discusses the impact of technology on how we consume music.
This month's selections are as follows:
Fiction
The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin (2016 Hugo Award for Best Novel & NYT Notable for 2015)
The Wangs vs. the World by Jade Chang
Stone Hunger by N.K. Jemisin (short story w/ optional audio)
Nonfiction
Every Song Ever: Twenty Ways to Listen in an Age of Musical Plenty by Ben Ratliff
Is Bandcamp the Holy Grail of Online Record Stores? by Ben Ratliff (article)
This month's meeting will take place at 12:00 on Saturday, April 29, at Rainbow Sparkly Land. Please RSVP by Wednesday, 26/4 if you'll be able to attend.
Happy reading!
RP
