I'm Gina, a librarian and life-long reader. I've posted reviews of what I'm reading on Instagram for years, but I've become disillusioned with social media as a space to talk books. So I started this newsletter to share what I'm reading and thinking. I read literary fiction, essays & memoir, romance, SF/F, and some non-fiction. I hope it inspires your TBR list!
Currently, this newsletter is free, and I promise I won’t spam your inbox. Honestly, I hope I can post with some regularity on monthly or semi-monthly basis. If this venture goes somewhere, I’ll consider putting some bonus content behind a paywall, but for now, it’s free. If you’d like to support me, you can purchase books through my Bookshop affiliate link: https://bookshop.org/shop/thelazyeditor
I’ll link to books through Bookshop, but I encourage you to use your local public library and buy books from independent bookstores. I have a day job, so if you have opportunity to support your local indie bookstores, do that instead of my Bookshop affiliate!
Why the Lazy Editor? I've gone by the username TheLazyEditor for many years, dating back to my early 20s when I was freelance copy editor scraping by without a 9-5, hence the reference to "lazy". I never got up before 9 am in those days! These days I have a 9-5 as a librarian (so not editing). But the name still suits me. You can find me on Instagram, BlueSky, and StoryGraph under this username.
