There are nowhere near enough books with pansexual main characters. Pansexual individuals are capable of experiencing sexual attraction to people of any gender, and they are a vital part of the queer community. Pansexual people deserve to see themselves represented much more often than they historically have been. Without representation, it can be much harder

The 1980s and ’90s kids books series with the most longevity, The Baby-Sitters Club, is a great example of the form. These long-running series were painfully earnest and well-meaning, introducing kids to concepts like divorce, bullying, and disability. Also, duh, they totally promoted happier concepts too, like friendship, achieving your goals, and saving the earth

“A high-octane thriller, combining insurance scams and drug cartels, chock-full of well-planned sequences, evasive actions, and near misses.” –Sublime Book Review Meet Angel – smart, willful, a lover of animals. She is also one of the Cartel del Noreste’s most lethal hitters, but this time she has met her match. His name is Dr. Ernest
In my time as a teenager, stage manager, and now librarian I’ve seen various plays and musicals that dominated the minds and shelves of young adults. Often sharing fandom space with kids who were already passionate readers, these theatrical works have become known not just as performances, but have also had their cast recordings downloaded,

July is Disability Pride Month! As a disabled person, I rarely see that part of my identity represented in books. But all month long, disabled people from around the world are showing pride in their identity and experiences. In the bookish world, disabled authors and readers have been sharing books that center the lives of
Summer is the time to experience the world with loved ones, whether it’s a music festival, beach getaway, road trip, or bookish events. There’s really something romantic about perusing the offerings at book festivals or attending an evening reading. The warmth of the summer air entices me to leave the confines of my apartment and
Whether it’s a natural disaster, nuclear war, a zombie apocalypse, climate change, or, say, a viral pandemic, fiction books love to destroy the earth! But what comes next? What emerges from the ashes? The post-apocalyptic book, of course! Exploring what happens after the world collapses, how society rebuilds itself (if it rebuilds at all), and
Face masks are the new pants. They aren’t terribly comfortable, you need to wear them in public, and going without is a major benefit to staying at home. First wave? Second wave? Let’s face it: At this point, it’s impossible to know how long face masks will be the new normal. Maybe you need masks
If you’ve been on Twitter lately, you’ve probably seen the realistic cake videos. They’re short clips showing a knife cutting into what seem to be everyday objects—a sudsy bar of soap, a Croc shoe, an oyster, someone’s hand (!)—only to have the exposed innards reveal that they were freakishly realistic cake all along. They’re certainly
The protests in Hong Kong are a never-ending story. Recently, China passed a national security law that may threaten many Hong Kongers’ freedom of speech. When the coronavirus crisis ends, some of us might want to visit Hong Kong at some point in our lives. The security measure could put us under surveillance if suspected
If you’ve been around for a while, you may have seen some of my Fashion Disasters articles, where I highlight the poor sartorial choices of superheroes who just can’t seem to get their act together. Superhero comics truly are the gift that keeps giving for those of us who are endlessly entertained by spandex wrought
(Content note: spoilers; real and fictional murderers and sexual predators) Thomas Hardy’s novels critique Victorian England, especially its hypocrisy, classism, sexism, and sexual violence. In her 2017 LitHub essay, Rachel Vorona Cote wrote that Hardy’s character Angel Clare from Tess of the D’Urbervilles exemplifies a type of “fraudulent nice guy” still common today. Similarly, William
Data visualization communicates the relationships of data through graphs, charts, and other visual mediums. It’s the difference between hundreds of rows on a spreadsheet and a concise graph with a key and color coating. Being an ever-increasing driving force behind business decisions, it’s important that data is accessible and understandable to people who might not
