pickThis was a cute rom-com!
The premise is so fun. Two authors facing immense writers block decide to “switch” plot ideas for their next books.
The star of the book was the two authors, Allie and Martin, and their writing relationship and friendship. I love that an old male crime author can become friends with a young female romance author.

How did I miss this film about Thomas Wolfe & his editor Max Perkins? I ran across the film today and binge watched the whole thing while on the elliptical. Gorgeous cinematography and acting - highly recommend.
Whole thing is here on YouTube: https://youtu.be/9AowPEE-7hY?si=Llhdawj2cxKCQUyM
pickAn ugly story about writing, publishing, opportunism, ambition, racism, cancel culture, etc.
Despite the tough topics, I thought this was very well-done.
Bravo!
pickWhat a book. I love a good satire and this one is so well written you sometimes forget it is one.
pickRandom House started out by acquiring The Modern Library, so it seems appropriate to picture this memoir alongside my ML collection. I enjoyed Cerf‘s meandering reminiscences and the advantage of knowing which of his authors is still read and which not doesn‘t detract a bit. His humor isn‘t mean, even when “telling tales” on famous people, and it was a dose of lightheartedness I very much needed. And #letterA for #LitsyAtoZ & #doublrspin.
Here‘s my belated #readyourkindle for this months. Thanks @CBee for organizing.
I needed more humor and less thriller, so reading my #doublespin before my #bookspin this month. Also #letterA for #LitsyAtoZ. @TheAromaofBooks @Texreader
