|  WHAT TO READ |   | Brown Girl in the Ring — Dystopian Future Canada. This homage to Afro-Caribbean culture sets its sci-fi/magical realism story about a single mom fighting for survival in post-collapse Toronto. Rife with ancestral spirits and magic, this book won author Nalo Hopkinson lots of sci-fi awards. |  |
| The Memory Police — Modern Fable. This Yōko Ogawa novel was published in Japan more than two decades ago but was only recently translated into English. It’s a haunting, beautifully written piece about a world where things like birds, roses and hats disappear, along with everyone’s memory of them. Except for a few people who are exempt, including our narrator. |  |
| How Should a Person Be? — Category Defying. Sheila Heti’s book is kind of fiction, kind of memoir, kind of gossip, kind of self-help. It all makes sense when you read it, sort of, but more than that it’ll make you think. |  |

| Bright Cellars — Drinking Wine Is Easy. Choosing Wine Is Hard That’s why two MIT grads created an algorithm that recommends wine based on your individual palate by using a simple seven-question quiz. You don’t have to know anything about wine to take the quiz. They ask questions like “What’s your favorite chocolate?” and “How do you like your tea?” Seeing which wines they recommend is 100 percent free. So take the quiz! Bright Cellars is offering OZY readers $50 off their first order! SPONSORED BY: Bright Cellars |  SUGGESTED BY Wade Best /Cheers! |
