November is Bok Klubb Special Month!
I promised a Swedish Lessons announcement today, and here it is! It’s a Bok Klubb extravaganza all month! Interested in an author visit to your bok klubb? Get one for free during November with the purchase of seven or more books.* Fun!

Dressing up as Ourselves
We like to think of Halloween as a one-day hiatus from being ourselves. It’s our chance to dress up like someone totally different from ourselves, to try on another life of a size. But who are we kidding? That’s not how it works. Every costume I’ve ever seen reveals more about the person wearing it than it does disguise anything. Sometimes it well executed, revealing just how clever, creative or daring a person is. And at others, well, it exposes our insecurities, insensitivity and misunderstandings.
