As summer approaches, the excitement for new reading material is palpable, especially for those enjoying leisure time by the pool, beach, or traveling. Critics have curated a selection of noteworthy fiction and nonfiction titles for this season. Alice Bolin's "Culture Creep" offers a sharp commentary on millennial pop culture through a feminist lens, while Megan Giddings’ "Meet Me at the Crossroads" tells a captivating story of twins intertwined with religion and mysterious doors influencing their destinies. Both books illustrate the complexities of contemporary experiences and cultural obsessions.
Bolin's collection examines millennial pop culture obsessions through a lens of (post)feminism, late capitalism, and technology, linking these themes to cultish thinking.
Giddings' novel presents twins navigating different familial and religious landscapes, exploring mysterious doors that may lead to the world of the dead or alternate realities.
