Nanette Donohue, project lead for Life+Style, is the collections & technical services manager at the Champaign (IL) Public Library. She will try any craft once (and has the supply stash to prove it) and is her daughters’ favorite baker. One of her starred review picks from this issue is Enchantment: Awakening Wonder in an Anxious Age by Katherine May (Riverhead), about which she writes, “May’s observant, moving essays are a balm for souls wearied by the nonstop pulse of contemporary life, and an invitation to reconnect with the outside world.” |
