What’s on your summer reading list?

I recently read The Antidote by Karen Russell, which was amazing and so, so strange. And now I’m reading Lee Cole’s new novel, Fulfillment, to review for the newspaper. I also just ordered a handful of new historical romance novels with a gift card!

I can’t find it now, of course, but a few weeks ago someone on Substack showed their editing progress chart. I was in the throes of a hard edit and promptly made my own chart too because sometimes choosing a highlighter color is the perfect little reward. 

Today I made it to the end of the revision
