If you've read a book, written a book, promoted a book, published a book, care about literacy, want future generations to read books, PLEASE let @apnews.com know what a HUGE MISTAKE and terrible disservice it is to discontinue their book reviews. Bring them back! www.ap.org/contact-us/?...

This is horrific on so many levels. Shame on you, Chicago Sun-Times. As others have so rightly said, there are countless smart and well-read humans who would have created a robust list of REAL and worthy books for free.

Cover reveal: 'You Are the Detective' takes readers on an interactive murder mystery Ready to get your Sherlock on? Readers can figure out whodunit in the interactive mystery book "You Are the Detective: The Creeping Hand Murder."

In these weird and terrible times, it feels strange to announce things, but I made something I think will bring JOY! Do YOU want to solve a mystery? What if someone handed you the file with a sealed solution in the back...

So fun to watch Younger again. It gets so much of the book publishing biz wrong, but some rings true. Cracking up over this quote from Lauren: β€œPromoting books at a time when people can just as easily join an Oculus orgy feels a bit like magic, but I’m a witch…”
