It Occurs to Me That I Am America: New Stories and Art | 
My book haul from today.
Labor day weekend reading
Some #nakedhardcovers from my library shelves.

pickThis is more than a collection of writings-- there's full color art throughout as well, which makes this a lovely book to own (and it supports the ACLU). some of the writing felt rushed, but there's some fine writing here as well. it's a mix of essay and fiction. even though some stories were meh, the art and the ACLU support make this book a "buy". Not the greatest picture but it's 6:30am, cut me some slack ?
Sloooooowly creeping my way through this collection. Some hits, some misses. It feels rushed.
pickI absolutely loved this collection! Many well known authors and artists contributed art, stories, and essays of their response to 45‘s election and Trumpism. Each interpretation is a little different and I don‘t think there‘s a weak piece in the bunch. It works well on audio and I think it would be great in print, too. All proceeds go to the ACLU.
This looked like a good idea to take home from library and then I promptly hit Olympic fever and forgot about it until now
pickPatriotic, diverse, celebrated writers & artists anthologized with proceeds going to the ACLU. A worthwhile cause with stand-out submissions from Ha Jin, Mark Di Ionno, Julia Alvarez, Louise Erdrich, Bliss Broyard; meaty dystopia from Joyce Carol Oates and Sarah Paretsky, and a forward from Viet Thanh Nguyen that's worth the price of admission. Longer review on my blog, mccrystle.blogspot.com if interested.
Got my copy today, with a donation made to the ACLU.
I grabbed this one on a whim. Look at all the great authors who wrote essays for it! What I was not aware of, until the intro, is all proceeds from the book sales go to the ACLU. So, those of you in a #resist mood, here is a book for you!
Great contributors. Great cause. Important moment. Publisher S&S Touchstone is currently donating $3 to the ACLU for each purchased copy —digital, hardcover, or audio. I got mine on Kindle. Here‘s the link: http://iamamericabook.com/ #FirstAmendment #LitMatters
