I write twice-monthly book reviews for the Anchorage Daily News. These are books (not self-published) by Alaskans or with Alaska or at least northern content. Feel free to alert me to new books or send review copies! ​(Sorry that there is a paywall. Subscribe to newspapers and keep local journalism alive!)

Here's a commentary I wrote recently for the ADN about the value of book reviews.
