Books in the City is back with another month of book recommendations! This month’s theme is Analog August.
Analog August is a celebration of the simple pleasures that belong to late summer. There are still long afternoons, warm evenings, and plenty of summer left to enjoy. Through books, games, puzzles, coloring, and hands-on creativity, this collection invites you to slow down, pay attention, and savor the season a little longer, because sometimes it feels like summer lasts longer when you do.
