Unemployed and Underemployed Booksellers Choose Their Favorite Books of the Year

Recommendations from The Bookstore at the End of the World
December 16, 2020
On a good year, everything about the publishing industry seems designed for anxiety: an author’s fear that they won’t be read or understood, a publisher’s hand-wringing about profits and losses; a publicist’s neurosis about shrinking review coverage; a reader’s sense of foreboding about the accumulating stacks on their tables and chairs and floors; a designer’s tension about kerning or whatever troubles designers anyway; and a bookseller’s limitless concern about all of the above, plus or minus the kerning. And this year, with the perfect clarity of two-zero-two-zero, all of that was buried beneath new anxieties: will I ever see my family again? Will I be killed and/or abducted in the street by government thugs? Will my business burn to the ground in a paroxysm of righteous anger at white supremacy? Will my seamless order ever fucking arrive? Why won’t my cousins wear masks? They v ....

Did you listen more or less in 2020? For every friend rhapsodizing about how she finally discovered audiobooks this year when walking outdoors replaced her gym time, there’s another who’s behind on all his podcasts because he’s no longer commuting. Some of us resorted to submerging ourselves in long Victorian novels narrated by top-drawer actors in order to escape the hair-raising news cycle, while others complained that they just couldn’t concentrate on anything longer than a TikTok. Nevertheless, the market for audiobooks continues to grow. These were the best to meet my own ears over the past 12 tumultuous months. ....

A Winter Bookshelf: 8 New Books about Books | Fine Books & Collections

Courtesy of the publishers
Readers may have noticed something new in our recent issues: a little section up front we call “Editor’s Bookshelf.” It’s a brief list of new or forthcoming books that we think will most appeal to bibliophiles. Here’s more information on the five featured in our current issue, as well as three “bonus” picks that only came to our attention after we went to press.

LitReactor Staff Picks: The Best Books of 2020 - Part III

Another year has come and gone. You know what that means, don t you? Time for a bunch of strangers to tell you what was good! And why should you care what the LitReactor staff thinks are the best books of the year? Trick question! You shouldn t. But what they have to say might interest you nonetheless, because they are good-looking and knowledgeable and they read like the wind. So for those who care, we submit for your approval/derision some of LitReactor s favorite reads of 2020 (part 3).
Not all of these books were published this year. We figured if someone read a book for the first time in 2020, they deserved the opportunity to crow about it. ....
