Once in awhile I read a book that grabs me and doesn’t let me go. These are the titles I can’t wait to share. Behold the cover of one such book:
I’ll be saying goodbye to Pittsburgh soon (heading to Ole Miss to be the Grisham Writer in Residence), but I talked to my love @afrobella (for @Tripadvisor) about some of my favorite places here, including my favorite soul food spot! tripadvisor.com/Articles-lBRjI…

@JamesPonti @CityofAsylumBks @ABAbook Pittsburgh is such a cool city--we loved spending time there and visited this amazing bookstore when @kennedymcmann was at @CarnegieMellon's School of Drama. Would I name-drop to help an indie bookstore? You bet I would!
Pittsburgh is a cutting-edge city, filled with cultural treats like @CityofAsylumBks. One of the coolest bookstores you'll ever see, it prides itself on its international and translated titles. Do yourself a favor and check it out. @ABAbook #Indie500Books

Next Tuesday I'm leaving my house to talk with the fabulous Maud Newton @CityofAsylumBks. Join us in person or remotely.
What a week! You all made it better than the best. First the finale, which played well for folks, and for me a satisfying story closer. I think Jimmy Mcgill is in a better place, no spoilers, but I sure wish he'd gotten that ice cream!! (1/3)

Nice window, @CityofAsylumBks!
Finally have a copy of Indelible City by @limlouisa. I wanted to buy it from an independent bookseller and especially from Pittsburgh’s City of Asylum Bookstore
Hello good morning we want food we want to play we want to learn how to speak English did we mention we want food we'd like fresh diapers eventually we might even want baths we want to be bounced we're not amused by you telling us it's "Saturday" nor by your idea of "sleeping in"
Join me in wishing Lesley Rains good luck in her new job. An era has ended @CityofAsylumBks but Lesley has left behind a strong literary hub and many friends who will miss her wry@wit and winning book recs.🌻
Just found these vintage pics of the @littsburgh crew visiting Lesley's old store, East End Book Exchange (which turned into @whitewhalebks)! Pittsburgh's bookstore scene has changed + grown *so much* these past few years... wishing lots of luck & 📚💖✨to Lesley!
A note from Lesley: after six wonderful years, I am leaving City of Asylum to pursue other professional opportunities. Stewarding this bookstore has been a remarkable experience…

Oh, whoa! The Immortal King Rao is on this longlist! 🥳 And there are so many great-sounding books on here that I want to read now (and also so many objectively excellent debuts that I've loved this year that aren't on this list).
We are thrilled to announce the 2022 longlist for The Center for Fiction First Novel Prize! The Prize honors the best debut fiction of the year, with the winner announced at our Annual Awards Benefit on 12/6. Learn more about these incredible books here: bit.ly/3vKmuej
