WORD bookstores in Brooklyn and Jersey City have launched a series of short videos on Instagram called ARC Raiders! in which authors get to peruse the advanced reading copies shelves and share recommendations and personal anecdotes about upcoming titles. The first episode features author and former WORD staffer Jami Attenberg.
"I've always been of fan of the Criterion Closet, which is about movies, and wanted to create a version like it for books," said WORD co-owner Vincent Onorati. "Plus, we have a lot of galleys to share!"
