Catch up quick with the bookish news of the past few days ... or take a deeper dive into each story. Your choice! 

  • Morton Mintz, a journalist and book author whose works exposed corporate corruption and government negligence, died Monday at age 103; some of his books included The Therapeutic Nightmare and At Any Cost (The New York Times). 

  • Actress Sarah Jessica Parker's participation in Booker Prize judging is being criticized as a conflict of interest, as Claire Adam's Love Forms — a book reportedly being developed for the screen by Parker's production company — made the 2025 Booker longlist (The Guardian).

  • A travel company is offering BookTok-themed trips for 18- to 35-year-olds, such as a journey to Switzerland (inspired by A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas) or one to Croatia (inspired by People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry) (EF Ultimate Break)
