Jen Sookfong Lee Is a Book Person

Michelle Cyca: How would you describe your literary tastes? Jen Sookfong Lee: I mostly read novels my favourites are really immersive novels that have a lot of different layers in terms of setting and character, and all those fictional elements. I look for something that will suck me in and not let me go. The last one was Songs for the End of the World by Saleema Nawaz, which is a pandemic novel. Oddly, she wrote it before any of this happened. It’s not that she was predicting the future, but she did a lot of research into pandemics and viruses like COVID. It’s a fascinating read, and it follows something like five protagonists and their experiences through the pandemic.

Pete the Cat | Orangeville Citizen

Headline: Pete the Cat By Anthony Carnovale Look, I can’t lie: if I’m walking into your house, the first thing I’m looking for is books. If there aren’t any books, the second thing I’m looking for is the door. I can’t help it. You see, I judge people by the books they read and/or don’t read. I’m a bit of a snob that way. To me, there is no more important thing a person can do for themselves outside of food, shelter and companionship, than to read books. When I was a kid, I read everything that could be read: subways signs, street signs, labels on clothing. I read my way through the Hardy Boys series and would lose myself in Choose Your Own Adventure books.
