Here’s my schedule:
Monday: The Angel of the Opera: Sherlock Holmes Meets the Phantom of the Opera by Sam Siciliano
Wednesday: Innocence by Jane Mendelsohn, in conjunction with Bildungsroman and Chasing Ray
Thursday: Who P-p-p-p-plugged Roger Rabbit? by Gary K. Wolf
Friday: Gentle’s Holler and Louisiana’s Song by Kerry Madden
Each day I’ll be linking to everyone else’s posts. We’re reviewing more than fifty books! In October, we’ll be hosting a one shot event called “Bradbury Season,” and in November, we’ll present the Winter Blog Blast Tour!
I acknowledge that I live and work on unceded Lumbee, Skaruhreh/Tuscarora, and Shakori land. I give respect and reverence to those who came before me. I thank Holisticism for the text of this land acknowledgement.
We must acknowledge that much of what we know of this country today, including its culture, economic growth, and development throughout history and across time, has been made possible by the labor of enslaved Africans and their ascendants who suffered the horror of the transatlantic trafficking of their people, chattel slavery, and Jim Crow. We are indebted to their labor and their sacrifice, and we must acknowledge the tremors of that violence throughout the generations and the resulting impact that can still be felt and witnessed today. I thank Dr. Terah ‘TJ’ Stewart for the text of this labor acknowledgement.
