I reviewed the new Sally Rooney, Kylie Mirmohamadi's Diving, Falling and Rumaan Alam's Entitlement in @indaily recently. Loved two of them, thought one was severely undercooked. inreview.com.au/inreview/books…

@LiteraryMinded TNG and DS9 were so good

Courtesy of @PaulDalgarno & @Milan2Pinsk, my experience is so far limited to (humble?) polycules. So *hit me* up, submitters! #agentlife theguardian.com/books/article/…
