#unabridgedbookoftheweek THE VINE THAT ATE THE SOUTH by J.D. Wilkes is a love letter to the South and all the tall tales and myths that occupy the region. This is a wonderfully weird, Southern Gothic romp! Much love 😍 #twodollarradio #jdwilkes (at Unabridged Bookstore)
"I want to thank you for your time, even though time doesn't belong to you either."
Happy 10th Anniversary of the publication of Crapalachia!
Happy Pub Day to 808's and Otherworlds! "You cannot borrow my color. I am not a commodity. I am not a part song, cuss word or caged bird. I belong to no one. I name myself...wear myself. You sell me to make your money. You say I'm free, but you still owe me." I loved everything about this collection of poems, remixes and meditations. It was raw, honest and contemplative. There were parts that kicked me in the chest and made me pay attention. There were so many times I stopped to reread certain parts because the thoughts were so deep. The format of the book gave it a nice flow. The writing was the stand out for me. It was lyrical, speculative at times and magical. I really really related to Medlin's nerdy gamer, hip hop loving vibes. The author tackles themes through hip hop and media narratives. They explore: 🎧 Black masculinity and mental health 🎧 the commodification of Black culture and bodies 🎧 the misuse of hip hop by corporations to perpetuate narratives about Black culture 🎧 the concept of gender and roles 🎧 the trappings of idol worship and aspirations to perceived ideas of celebrity and status 🎧 what freedom looks and feels like when you question the staus quo 🎧 the diversity of Blackness The author's dissections of Kanye West songs and analysis of his persona were my favorites. They were insightful and really put words to what many have been thinking for a long time. If you are a nerdy, hip lover, then this book is for you. THIS HITS HARD! Medlin's words will continue to be bouncing around in my head. Thanks to @twodollarradio for this gifted copy. #808sandOtherworlds #debutnovel #twodollarradio #SeanAveryMedlin #hiphop #BooksandMurals #poetry #bookreview #indiebooks #books #bookish #bookphotos #reading #bookworm #booksandArt #nerd #BlackLit #BlackAuthors #stories #ownvoices #Blackbooks #verse #amplifymelanatedvoices #music #diversereads #bookdragon #blackstoriesmatter #masculinity (at The Bushwick Collective) https://www.instagram.com/p/CT0hef2LHMm/?utm_medium=tumblr
review - the orange eats creeps
3/5 Stars Pub Date: Sept 7, 2010 2021 Goodreads Goal: 16/150
A few years ago I read a book published by Two Dollar Radio, and I knew I needed to read more books from them. I’d had this book on my TBR for awhile, but my library didn’t get a copy until recently. So I had to check it out.
When I heard there was essentially a murder junkie vampire novel, I knew I had to read it. I’m not a GG fan myself, but I did think that a story revolving around a group of these nihilistic skids would be really entertaining.
The writing is gorgeous, it really is beautiful, but this is a book that’s all flowery wording and little substance. There is a lot of fucking in supermarket break rooms, and taking drugs, and going to hardcore shows, but it lacks a cohesive narrative that is anything aside from an experiment with language.
I have no clue how much time goes on, in this book, it’s just a loop of destructive behaviour.
Saying that I didn’t hate it, but I really was left wanting or expecting more.

“It’s an individual choice – one of the few we genuinely have – whether or not you turn away, or if or how you incorporate the suffering and violence of others, often others who are far away, into your own life.” • So muses Kay Ward, a reluctant mother and former journalist who for years reported on war crimes in several countries across the African continent. Kay and her family have rented a cottage in Vermont for the summer, hoping to unplug and recalibrate in America’s bucolic countryside. After Kay begins to suspect that all is not well with the cottage’s owners, she starts to make inquiries into their whereabouts. As she probes the townspeople for information about their disappearance, she uncovers a legacy of child abuse exacerbated by poverty and opioid addiction. THE UNDERNEATH is a propulsive and unflinching literary thriller that investigates the ethical implications of living in a world of ceaseless atrocities without ever becoming ham-fisted or trite. Finn handles the moral scope of the story’s converging narrative threads with tremendous facility, plumbing the depths of humanity’s capacity for generosity and evil. Much love! ♥️📚 • #unabridgedbookoftheweek #melaniefinn #theunderneath #twodollarradio #smallpress #bookstagram #bestbooksof2018 (at Unabridged Bookstore)
