I got my print copies of my issue of Publishers Weekly in, so naturally I had to do a photoshoot with the cat lmao. he did a great job and also obligingly covered up bill maher's face in most of the pictures.

the print edition is actually erroneous because it's a two-book deal but both books are standalones aaaaaand the first one is the only one that's set. for some reason they broke up the first book's description and attributed it to both books? the online edition was fixed before I shared it lol, but print is forever!

still wanted it, though, because. I mean. I'm in Publishers Weekly wtf, we're framing that mofo

click here to read the deal report online (but watch out for the bill maher jump scare)

CAFÉ UNFILTERED by Jean-Philippe Blondel is a caffeinated hit: "Blondel’s moving and dynamic novel explores the intersecting lives of visitors and staff at a provincial French café . . . The café serves as the perfect theater for tragicomedy . . . This has plenty of charm."—Publishers Weekly

“And after the acting clinic Oscar Isaac put on in Marvel’s Moon Knight series, Lucasfilm may be kicking itself for not utilizing him for more Poe.”

Damn, that last line was ICE COLD 🤣😂👍🏼

(I don’t mean to hate on the Sequel Trilogy but enough time has passed, and I do think that though all three leads - Daisy Ridley’s Rey, John Boyega’s Finn, and Oscar Isaac’s Poe - had compelling stories told, all three movies as a collective whole should have gotten a better treatment. But it is what it is, and Oscar Isaac loved his character’s comic book adaptation better than he loved Poe’s story in the films, so there’s that 😅)

Kindness of Strangers on Goodreads

When I read about a recent book scandal, I was reminded of the line, “I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.” Blanche Debois says it in the Tennessee Williams play, Streetcar Named Desire. It’s a curious line because Blanche is not great at assessing strangers, and the only kindness she’s received was that in exchange for sex. Still, that line came to mind, when I thought of how…

Comics and graphic novels are prime targets in the current battle to ban books at libraries across the country: the most-banned book in the U.S. was once again Maia Kobabe’s Gender Queer, and others, such as Mike Curato’s Flamer, Jerry Craft’s New Kid, Craig Thompson’s Blankets, and Art Spiegelman’s Maus, appear on multiple ban lists.

Librarians who have championed the comics form find themselves on the front lines, processing and disputing challenges and helping others counter censorship while facing virulent harassment on social media and even in person. Some have left the profession entirely due to the resultant fatigue and fears for personal safety.
