A short week for me means a brief message rather than my usual weekly wind up. You will, however, still see announcements for both Tove Jansson & Moomin Month and Women in Translation Month 2026, and among the birthday celebrants this weekend you will find Herman Melville, James Baldwin and Rose Tremain.
This week I look at books read and reviewed, discover some of the best writing about literature on the blogosphere, announce Nonfiction November 2025, reveal an exciting new book-about-books, keep up with a variety of literary anniversaries, focus on past posts deserving to be read and highlight fascinating features from across the Internet.
