It's our favorite week here in Richfield: National Library Week!
Kat discusses 10,000 Doors of January by Alix E. Harrow, The Card Catalog by The Library of Congress and Carla Hayden, The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern, and, of course, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows.
Christina shares Living In Data by LOC's first Innovator-In-Residence Jer Thorp, her conflicted feelings about Haruki Murakami's Hard-Boiled Wonderland and The End of the World, and The Strange Library, and her love of Ain’t Burned All the Bright, a collaborative visual poem by Jason Reynolds & Jason Griffin.
Kat mentions a great conversation between Mieko Kawakami and Murakami, which can be found here: https://lithub.com/a-feminist-critique-of-murakami-novels-with-murakami-himself/
