This week I started reading I’m Not Dying with You Tonight<\/em> by Kimberly Jones and Gilly Segal, about two teen girls, one white and one black, and how they try to get home after the football game they’re both at erupts in violence. I’d picked it up before the pandemic and it had lingered on my pile. It’s really good and one of those instances where alternating points of view work to enhance the reader’s understanding.<\/p>\n

I also started listening to a romance novel, Get a Life, Chloe Brown<\/em> by Tallia Hibbert, as a total change of pace after finishing up the Inspector Gamache mystery I was listening to.<\/p>\n

I think I may do some re-reading as well. I have a lot of books about Black activism and storytelling from when I was in college, and it feels like time to literally dust off and dive back into Anna Deveare Smith, Angela Davis, and others’ works while I wait for newer books to become available.<\/p>\n

What books are you finding helpful and educational in response to what’s going on in the world right now?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
