Summary of Posts: April 21st 2013

by Emily Roberts on April 21, 2013

In this cycle, we checked out the latest book titles that will hit our favorite bookstores soon. We also talked about other author’s sources of inspiration, as well as stories about books and writers from years – and centuries – ago. Have a seat and take a look at these stories that we’ve lined up for you:

  • Let’s kick things off with a rundown of the latest books that are worth checking out as April crawls in. If you’re a fan of thrillers and memoirs, you’re in for a sure treat.
  • Granta (a magazine in the UK) once published a list of the most promising young British authors. Three decades since that list came out, let’s have a look at how the names mentioned have fared today.
  • George Washington, much like most American leaders, had an impressive collection of books in his time. Some of these books have been traveling around the world, it seems.
  • Southern Arizona isn’t just about hillbilly singing and deep fried chicken. The authors from the South also create the best works of literature to this very day.
  • You’ve probably read one or two poems by Maya Angelou, one of today’s best writers. Find out which books have helped in inspiring her through the years.
  • Finally, we talk about the endless cycle (and beauty) of reading and writing – how do writers find inspiration in other writers’ work and how do they channel this impact to create works of their own?
