Will there be a 2024 update (or have I missed it in my cursory search)? This is some of the most important service journalism, as far as I'm concerned. @julialeonard.bsky.social and I haven't updated our spreadsheet for the year yet, but we always count on your recs to build the watchlist!

Everyone should have more Milne in their lives, and poetry recitation. Middle of the office, bedtime story, doesn't matter.

She may grow up to be the kind of kid who calls you in the middle of the afternoon some fall weekday of her first semester away and ask for a poem because she's just a tad homesick (my Dad offered Jonathan Jo and his wheelbarrow full of surprises, word perfect, and I still remember 15 years later).

They do indeed work as you'd expect them to! I think they're using #nwslplayoff (singular) for the run.

And I know you said no romance, but My Lady Jane is just a really fun time, and apparently my whole Bluesky existence is grounded in evangelizing about this Tudor Animorphs story. Let's be silly about history in a context where that feels fun.

Elle Cosimano’s Finlay Donovan series is great, if you’re feeling author-turned-accidental hit woman. Delicious! (Ruth Reichl) is a detective(ish) story set at a food magazine - searching archives! excellent food descriptions! James Beard epistolary cameos!
