Happy Booksgiving! We're inaugurating a new Jolabokaflod-inspired holiday, Little Oracles style ... because gifting a book is cool as hell. Featuring five books I won't flinch about giving to fabulous friends (and fellow weird-fiction freaks).

  • If an Egyptian Cannot Speak English by Noor Naga
  • Grief Is the Thing with Feathers by Max Porter
  • Hera Lindsay Bird by Hera Lindsay Bird
  • The Friend by Sigrid Nunez
  • Cursed Bread by Sophie Mackintosh

Thanks so much for being here, and, as always, take care, keep creating, and stay divine. <3
