Today, we’re sharing our favorite translated reads of the year (and some of the books we’re most excited about in 2025). How many of these WWB staff favorites have you read? https://buff.ly/3VAKcXk🧵

Hi—I’m new here! I’ve written six novels & my next book, a trans BIPOC oral history, drops May 2025. Gathering these stories has been one of the greatest honors of my life. I can’t begin to express how these elders’ voices have inspired & sustained me. I hope they can inspire & sustain you too. 💜🏳️‍⚧️

In @foreignpolicy.com's December fiction column, I review Nayantara Roy's spellbinding debut novel, "The Magnificent Ruins," published by @algonquinbooks.bsky.social. It's set between Brooklyn and Kolkata and is one of my favorite books of the year.

I'm excited to announce a holiday giveaway with my local indie Buffalo Street Books! When you buy a copy of ENDPAPERS during December, it will come with a free chapbook titled BOYS/GIRLS with flash fiction & poetry by 8 contributors!

The Dead of Winter--exploring the history of dark, Christmas folklore and traditions. from @algonquinbooks.bsky.social "Thought-provoking insights into beliefs and practices overlooked by mainstream historians." PS. Krampus is adorable.

The best novels of 2024 were notably unafraid to rewrite the past, lacing shimmering, enriching new narratives through personal and cultural histories. Even better: Many of them made us laugh. Read on for our 15 favorites. www.bookpage.com/bes...
