List #96: Things to Read from 2020 that You Might Have Missed While Sitting in the Abyss

Convenience Store Woman, Sayaka Murata

I probably shouldn't remark on how relatable I found this.

Culture Warlords, Talia Lavin (see also List #93)

Lavin catfishes white supremacists.

Giant Days (the end), John Allison and Max Sarin (see also Rec. #711)

The much-beloved long-running series finally winds up as our heroines graduate.

Gravity Is the Thing, Jaclyn Moriarty (see also Rec. #235)

Kind of a cheat (published in 2019), but at least the paperback edition was published this year.

Hiding in Plain Sight, Sarah Kendzior (see also List #93)

It's no surprise that Kendzior, who has been consistently right about our broken democracy for more than four years, has another book where she's right a lot. But, bonus, it's also very beautifully written!

I Like to Watch, Emily Nussbaum (see also List #93)

TV! She like to watch TV!

Nothing Is Wrong and Here Is Why, Alexandra Petri (see also List #93)

If you're going to reflect back on the past four years, this is definitely the way to do it.

Solutions and Other Problems, Allie Brosh (see also Rec. #801)

Brosh breaks our hearts all over again.

Trick Mirror, Jia Tolentino (see also List #93)

Essays on the way we live now.

Also, I'd like to state for the record that my List #66 (aka "Follow These Women on Twitter") pretty much became my List #93 (aka "These Women Have Books Now"). 

So I clearly have my finger on the pulse of ... something. And it'd be great if someone would be into paying me for that.
