I dunno what’s been up with new releases lately but I’ve been having so much more fun with backlist - the god of the woods excluded!! Maybe buzzy is the wrong thing for your brain right now 🤓

Have you read The Ex Vows by Jessica Joyce yet? I'm partway through and absolutely loving it.

How about an under-the-radar biography? Last month I listened to The Editor, by Sara B. Franklin about Judith Jones. You might know Jones as the woman who edited Julia Child? The book was really well done and I learned so much - for sure plenty of behind the scenes about Julia, but also how Jones really made "cookbooks" a thing starting in the 1960's. And all she accomplished as an editor (obviously hugely under appreciated). In addition to every well-known figure from cooking in from 1960-1990, she also edited Anne Tyler, Sharon Olds, John Updike (and over two full pages of other authors)! The audio was great, too.
