Saturday Miscellany – 3/31/18

Odds ‘n ends over the week about books and reading that caught my eye. You’ve probably seen some/most/all of them, but just in case:

• J.K. Rowling dropped the best news of the week
• The Advice Columnists Who Prescribe Literature as Medicine — could be worse, might actually be helpful
• Books Need “Previously On” Segments, Too — Yes. Absolutely.
• Ernest Cline: By the Book — I usually enjoy these By the Book columns from NYT, this is no exception.
• Every Literary Genre Summed Up in a Single Sentence — you should at least get 2 grins from this — possibly a chuckle
• 7 Science-Backed Ways Reading Makes You Healthy — a nifty Infographic

This Week’s New Release that I’m Excited About and/or You’ll Probably See Here Soon:
• Noirville – Tales From The Dark Side Fahrenheit Press’ first collection of 15 short stories got published this week, looking forward to cracking this open.

Lastly, I’d like to say hi and extend a warm welcome to oddandbookish, Samantha Loves To Read, irevuo and factfictionfake for following the blog this week.
