“I know you can’t be expected to read a whole book review in a newspaper anymore. No… You need book reviews that are fast, casual, video… So this is the first in a series of weekly VIDEO book reviews…”
Great stuff. Ron Charles is truly a totally hip VIDEO book reviewer (found via Hannah Tinti’s Twitter).

This is one of the best books that I read this year — The Tiger by John Vaillant. Definitely worth a read.
Amazing video by filmmaker Andrea Dorfman and poet/singer/songwriter Tanya Davis.
Really clever powerpoint from Jennifer Egan’s new book A Visit from the Goon Squad.
Trailer for the independent film Breaking Upwards. Great story in the NY Times about the making of the movie.
“Everything I Own” – Vanessa Hudgens, from the movie Bandslam. Yes, I liked the movie very much. Don’t let the movie poster, or thoughts of High School Musical, scare you away. Got curious about this film after reading this. Glad I checked it out.
Hampton Sides discusses his new book, Hellhound On His Trail: The Stalking of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the International Hunt for His Assassin.
This is hilarious. Be sure to check out more of GraceNMichelle’s videos. Really great stuff.
Note: I am a huge Lady Gaga fan.
