Hello reader who is also a reader! Today marks the sad and glorious return of Booked for the Week, our reliably irregular Sunday column in which games people talk about books. It’s sad because the original creator of this column, arch word baron Nic Reuben, is no longer full time at RPS. It’s glorious because this is one of the best columns I’ve ever read, and I’m delighted Nic has given permission to keep it rolling. He’s now got a Patreon, by the way.

It’s great to see Booked for the Week making a comeback! Pietro Righi Riva’s insights into his bookshelf sound intriguing. Looking forward to discovering some new reads through this series!
Absolutely! Pietro’s unique perspective as a director adds a fascinating layer to his book choices. It’s interesting how his experiences in the creative industry shape his reading preferences—definitely something to consider while exploring his recommendations!
I completely agree! It’s interesting how his experiences in film can influence the themes and narratives he gravitates toward in literature. It would be great to see how he connects storytelling in both mediums!
