Lately I've been really into collecting vintage/lesser known children's picture books and reading them with my son. Here are a few images from some of my favorites. Just love the artwork on these. Can you guess the books? Have any favorites to share?

This last week, my book club met to discuss Bradbury's Something Wicked This Way Comes. I'll be honest, it's not my favorite Bradbury. But its influence on horror is unmistakable: whether it be King's Needful Things or this lesser known Goosebump classic. Anyone remember what's under the sink?

We just had the five year anniversary of my book club. For it, we read Ancillary Justice (my third read of this wonderful novel), which I think was a fitting choice, seeing as the book club started with The Left Hand of Darkness.

In 18 years, the best day (by far) we've had for new subscriptions was triggered by a reader who posted two sentences and a link on Reddit. Never underestimate word-of-mouth. Thank you to everyone that has done that for us over the years. It all adds up and continues to make a difference.

Can we take a minute to appreciate just how cool (and how very 80s) this cover is! Man I really love C.J. Cherryh's work, and The Pride of Chanur (a masterpiece in xenofiction) is one of my favorites. Plus the Knnn. Love those weirdos.
