  • Meet James, social media coordinator and Book Culture’s necessary evil. James is the brains behind things like the list of Anti-Beach Reads, as well as whatever unhinged thing is happening over on our Twitter at any given moment. . James’ areas of expertise are two opposite ends of the spectrum: sprawling, tragicomic novels (like Paul Murray’s “Skippy Dies”) and the shortest, clearest poems. He’s also good for a book about music, but couldn’t pick just one when it came time to take his photo. . Come by Book Culture and ask him for a recommendation when he won’t have to write it in third person! . . . #bookstagram #indiebookstore #bookseller #bookrecommendations
