A Bookseller Used to Giving Out the Book Recs Blind Date With a Book

- Books
Today, we're setting up Nicole Brinkley, Bookseller and Manager at Oblong Books in Rhinebeck, NY (and host of the Misshelved podcast). Nicole read and recently loved Year of the Witching and A Spindle Splintered, and she’s Oblong’s resident specialist for kids and SciFi Fantasy books. She loves autumn, and is impressed by other people’s generosity with their friends. She could give an on-the-spot TED talk about why frontline booksellers should make more money (we agree), or how Slenderman has big arms for big hugs. She’s looking to expand her reading list outside of her usual genres, and we’re more than happy to help.
The picks
Shop from the Lit.Bar
Neon Gods by Katee Robert
My Mother She Killed Me, My Father He Ate Me: Forty New Fairy Tales
Well Matched by Jen DeLuca
The Inheritance of Orquidea Divina by Zoraida Cordova
White Is for Witching by Helen Oyeyemi
Kill the Farm Boy by Delilah S. Dawson and Kevin Hearne
