@deborahkass 🙏❤️

Pat has a point! @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY & I talk about #biographies unputdownable for different reasons: John Lewis by David Greenberg; Craig Brown's Q: A Voyage Around the Queen; Paper of Wreckage, by Susan Mulcahy & Frank DiGiacomo. nbcnewyork.com/on-air/as-seen…

Fall novels for any season, every mood: Louise Erdrich's The Mighty Red; The Sequel @hanff_jean; Our Evenings by Alan Hollinghurst. "He had to read novels in order to understand the sensations that engulfed him," a line from The Mighty Red I wont't forget. pilot.latakoo.com/asset/18864472…

@lejaie @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY @Raphael4NY Maybe there's a commemorative edition library card available at that age! 🤭

@lejaie @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY @Raphael4NY And happy birthday! I trust people will give you a lot of books as presents!

@lejaie @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY @Raphael4NY And my joy to hear from you and to know you're watching. Am I on talking about books if Lin isn't here with us?

Banned Books Week has ended; book bans have not. #Libraries are a shared inheritance. @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY & I talk about endangered books and why they must remain available to all. nbcnewyork.com/on-air/as-seen… #bannedbooks #genderqueer #bannedbooksweek #bluesteye #readbannedbooks

@lejaie @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY @Raphael4NY Yes, indeed, Lin and thank you for noticing (and being so glad!). 🙂

@lejaie @Gus4NY @PatBattle4NY Lin! Thank you so much -- and happy fall and happy reading!

@WhittyAuthor @GarthGreenwell @JenMaxfield4NY @EvanFriss @NBCNewYork @CrownPublishing @fsgbooks @VikingBooks @penguinrandom @rjjulia @strandbookstore @ParnassusBooks1 @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY As is your book! 👏👏👏

@BGoldsteinBooks @GarthGreenwell @JenMaxfield4NY @EvanFriss @NBCNewYork @CrownPublishing @fsgbooks @VikingBooks @penguinrandom @rjjulia @strandbookstore @ParnassusBooks1 @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY Thank you so much Bill! This is amazing ♥️

Don't miss the marvelous novels All the Colors of the Dark @WhittyAuthor & Small Rain @GarthGreenwell; totally different, equally brilliant. @JenMaxfield4NY & I discuss why the ideal companion is @EvanFriss The Bookshop. nbcnewyork.com/on-air/as-seen… #books #read #book #bookstore

@GarthGreenwell @WhittyAuthor @JenMaxfield4NY @EvanFriss @NBCNewYork @CrownPublishing @fsgbooks @VikingBooks @penguinrandom @rjjulia @strandbookstore @ParnassusBooks1 @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY Thank you! And congratulations. It's a beautiful book & a breakthrough, unlike any novel I've ever read. I've never read a book so deeply, minutely, realistically inside a protagonist's mind that's also so riveting a story grounded in the reality of the physical world. A triumph!

@BGoldsteinBooks @WhittyAuthor @JenMaxfield4NY @EvanFriss @NBCNewYork @CrownPublishing @fsgbooks @VikingBooks @penguinrandom @rjjulia @strandbookstore @ParnassusBooks1 @PatBattle4NY @Gus4NY Thank you so much, Bill!

@lancerichardson Thank you, Lance! That's very kind of you. I'm very grateful. And very very grateful to @NEHgov.

@MylesMill @NBCNewYork That's so great! I'm sorry we never got to meet in the studio. Here's hoping eventually...

@BGoldsteinBooks @NBCNewYork Thanks Bill and of course I love "Long Island Compromise"

After nearly 5 years @NBCNewYork , it's time for a new adventure. Thanks to my friends Pat and Gus for a lovely sendoff.

@mtaeckens Congratulations❣️❣️❣️

@lejaie So glad to be caught, Lin! Thanks for watching, and yes, you too -- stay dry! (And keep your books dry; words to live by.)

@MichaelPetrelis @ScottGorenstein It's true!

@ScottGorenstein Did you know Larry Kramer took a date to Judy Garland's Carnegie Hall concert? His biographer @BGoldsteinBooks shared this trivia with me!

Almost as tumultuous as Judy Garland at Carnegie Hall.

@margcroft @blakerwest @Macys @HudsonRiverPark @littleislandnyc @pier40forall We missed the singers, but I suppose didn't miss them at all!

@BGoldsteinBooks @blakerwest @Macys @HudsonRiverPark @littleislandnyc @pier40forall You were so lucky to see this! We, who watched on tv, were stuck with watching all these singers with fireworks in the background. Sad to see it this way as I usually so love seeing this magnificent display!

@lancerichardson They are the best!
