Dear Friends of Book Passage,

I'm thrilled that you were able to join me and my dear pal Elaine for this event. Thank you for continuing to support your local independent bookstore. You're lucky to have one of the very best, and I can say that because I've seen them all.

Some of my favorite books that have come out this year are:

• The Resisters by Gish Jen
• The Night Watchman by Louise Erdrich
• Deacon King Kong by James McBride
• Writers & Lovers by Lily King
• The Dragons, the Giant, the Women by Wayetu Moore

Two great anti-racist books you might have missed:

• White Rage by Carol Anderson
• Black Is the Body by Emily Bernard

Why not read some poetry while you're at it:

• The Selected Poems of Frank O'Hara

Read middle grade fiction even if you're an adult:

• The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane and The Magician's Elephant both by Kate DiCamillo

The book that will change your life once it's published in September:

• Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi

Please stay safe, keep reading, and keep shopping local.

Love and thanks,
—Ann Patchett
