What we are…
…Reading

Lorne, by Susan Morrison, February 18
This year marks the 50th anniversary of Saturday Night Live — a cultural phenomenon that, for better or worse, has shaped American comedy for half a century. Lorne Michaels is the quirky genius behind the show. Lorne takes a deeper look at the producer and all of the ways his own taste has shaped our own. It is a must-read for SNL fans and a fun stroll through the past for those who have been living through it.

The Dream Hotel, by Laila Lalami, March 4
Set in the near future, The Dream Hotel introduces readers to a world where even your dreams are under surveillance. As a result, protagonist Sara is arrested and detained for a crime she has not yet committed — harming her husband. Lala Lalami’s novel feels inspired by Phillip K. Dick’s The Minority Report, and it similarly invites us to question the outsized role technology plays in our lives.
