We’re back in the NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW Y’ALL !!! Surreal to see my mug in @nytimesbooks, as AMERICANON was selected as one of 6 new paperbacks to read!! An honor. So much so that I dressed up for the occasion 🤵‍♀️

Americanon by @MchughJess The story of American culture, told by looking at 13 best sellers over time. A look at the myths of the self-made man, the lone farmer, and a culture deeply skeptical of ‘experts.’.

My top reads from 2025, to inspire you for 2026: Numéro Deux by @DavidFoenkinos The story of the kid who almost got to play Harry Potter in the movies. Then didn’t. A short, clever novel about what it means to come second, and how people rebuild when the big dream slips away.

Asking someone's age is a pretty standard question to ask someone when interviewing them for an article, but I kind of love how many people respond HOW OLD ARE YOU?!

France is fiercely protective of its landmarks, food, and other forms of cultural heritage. Now the French government is hoping citizens can think of wildlife as “patrimoine,” too, @MchughJess writes: theatlantic.com/science/archiv…

Serge lost his father to Auschwitz and Beate’s father voted for Hitler, but they met on a Paris subway platform and fell in love just the same. They traveled the world hunting Nazis. This is the story of their courageous fight for the truth. New work! everand.com/audiobook/7113…

Despite nearly a full decade of sending pitches to editors, and understanding HOW READING WORKS, this is me, 0.3 seconds after sending a pitch, refreshing my inbox, hoping for an instant YES

Finally met my neighbor and he said "nice to finally put a face to everything I hear"... Which is hands-down the last thing I wanted to hear
