Unwanted Hopeless Romantic Morons by Geoffrey Alexander Parsons
(Meg Wise-Lawrence has previously written about the Pre-Raphaelite and British Romantic literary scenes on LitKicks, and currently teaches English at Hunter College in New York City.)
(LitKicks friend Mikael Covey tells us about three things he likes, two books and one play.)
The Suburban Swindle by Jackie Corley
I return from a three week break to find a New York Times Book Review I can really dig into. You know, my friends and I beat up this publication often, but sometimes I just have to admit that they do a pretty good job -- at a fast pace, and probably on an endangered budget. So, I'll offer nothing but appreciation today.

One thing you have to say for Little Brother, Cory Doctorow's recent book for young adults (now nominated for the Hugo Award for best novel): it's ambitious. It is an adventure story about teenage terrorism that's also a screed on the importance and meaning of the right to privacy and a guide to bad government practices and how to fight them, a novel made manifesto and handbook.
(A literary sensation and National Book Award nominee at age 21, Eleanor Lerman has paid her dues, been there and back, and has now published a new book of short stories. Here's her story. -- Levi).
