Hello again from the most radical little green house of books you’ll ever find.<\/p>\n

It’s been a while but after a crazy year we’re working on getting back in the swing of things. How are\u00a0you, though??<\/em><\/p>\n

Microcosm’s staff is an incredible little world of its own, with wildly different personalities, opinions, and preferences. Every now and then we like to check in with everyone and see what we’re all into these days….<\/p>\n

\nMy favorite thing on tv right now is Stranger Things 2, because I like Dungeons and Dragons-themed tv (OK, I have a 13-year-old who loves horror).
\nI read stuff simultaneously:\u00a0A Tree Grows in Brooklyn<\/em><\/a>,\u00a0Unfuck Your Brain<\/em><\/a>,\u00a0Akata Witch<\/em><\/a>, and the new issue of\u00a0Harper’s<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Fun Fact: the women of Pussy Riot were kept in a plexi-glass cage during their trial. They were THAT dangerous.<\/p>\n

My favorite thing on tv right now is The Good Place<\/a>. I started it on a whim because I liked the cast, and how funny and surprising it was blew me away. Eleanor (including her faults, unfortunately) is definitely my spirit animal.<\/div>\n\"mazzy\n
I’m also obsessed with the Cooking With Mazzy<\/a> youtube channel, and flipped out when this Mazzy mural went up near the off<\/div>\n

In the book department, lately I’m only reading stuff that haven’t come out yet for work…. the only other thing book-wise is… well, does listening to the High Rise audiobook<\/a> for the 3rd time count as finishing a book…? It’s just so soothing…<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

My favorite thing on tv right now is the show\u00a0Fortitude.<\/a>\u00a0It’s quirky.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The last book I read was How to Read Nature.\u00a0<\/a>My favorite part was learning that pigeons follow roads.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Your favorite thing on tv\/entertainment right now is Crazy Ex-Girlfriend<\/a>, because it’s funny feminist fun, with fantastic characters & songs\u2014what more do you need? But I haven\u2019t gotten to watch any of Season 3 yet, so don\u2019t spoil it for me!<\/div>\n

Last book I finished was Kristin Hannah\u2019s The Nightingale.<\/a> My favorite part was [SPOILER!] when Vianne (one of the two sisters the book revolves around) kills the Nazi she\u2019s very conflictedly in love with. Though my critique would be this book teeters on the edge\/possibly crosses into too-melodramatic territory pretty often, which is often difficult with WWII fiction.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
