I was a huge fan of @isaacfitzgerald.bsky.social's last book (which featured a guy who could suck his own dick) so I'm really looking forward to his upcoming one about Johnny Appleseed (no word yet on if he could suck his own dick) www.nytimes.com/2026/01/07/b...

C. Mallon’s debut novel absolutely rocked me, so it was a thrill to review it for @nytimes.com‬. Tremendous thanks to MJ Franklin for the assignment, along with his sharp, thoughtful edits.
