New Articles at Publishers Weekly and NPR's Books We Love 2023

NPR's Books We Love has quickly become one of my favorite annual traditions. This year I had the honor of writing about 12 of my absolute faves for this incredible celebration of excellent books including: Crook Manifesto by Colson Whitehead, The Fraud by Zadie Smith, Age of Vice by Deepti Kapoor, and We Could Be So Good by Cat Sebastian. 

Each one is a tribute, and the collection is searchable by your favorite attributes like genre, setting, and seriously great writing. 

I also have two new articles I'm excited about at Publishers Weekly, a roundup at The Boston Globe, and reviews at BookPage. For links and other news, see recent pubs.
