Raoul Duke is the MC in many of Thompson‘s works, most famously in the tagged book and its film adaptation - he portrays who Hunter S. Thompson really was as a true #AntiHero on a booze and drug-filled pilgrimage to Vegas. Enjoyed the book & film-Depp was perfect. Love how Nathan C‘s review describes Las Vegas: “a nightmare, a joke, a blunder of cosmic proportions-where Sin goes to die when it‘s embarrassed for itself” 😂 #VolumesAndVocals

pickA lovely MG novel in verse about Abbey, 12 yo. She‘s thrust once again into a new home and school (Army ‘brat‘) when 9-11 happens. Her aunt Rose is missing in NYC, and her dad‘s off to Afghanistan. Conditions are ripe for polarization in human behavior; anti-war, anti-Muslim, pro-war, love for country and the ever present fear of the unknown…

pickMemoir - Maya wants to be popular ! She finds a book from 1950s that she will try to emulate. She définitely gets attention by donning pearls, wearing skirts, using good posture and being friendly to others.
