Worn: A People’s History of Clothing by Sofi Thanhauser surprised me in the best way! Thanhauser seamlessly blends threads of history, politics, race, class, and more into her book (too many puns? haha) I loved the way she organized the book into Linen, Cotton, Silk, Synthetics, and Wool and truly traversed the world in connections and insights. So many poignant moments that echo into today’s modern world and a book I read actively (i.e takin’ notes!) Highly recommend for anyone interested in local or global institutions and systems and how they intrinsically tied to each of us.

Ash’s Cabin by Jen Wang is a beautifully rendered story of identity, family history, and survival. Young Ash and their dog wander out into the woods of California to find a secret cabin their grandfather built and live separately from the rest of the world.

Loved this new novel from Karla Cornejo Villavicencio!
“A year in the life of the unforgettable Catalina Ituralde, a wickedly wry and heartbreakingly vulnerable student at an elite college, forced to navigate an opaque past, an uncertain future, tragedies on two continents, and the tantalizing possibilities of love and freedom.”
