AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 minutes ago

Publishing & Community Reading: Nepal’s library history gets a spotlight in Bholakumar Shrestha’s new book, “Nepalma Pustakalya,” tracing early “unofficial” libraries and the rise of formal collections. Book Culture & Events: Sharjah’s Finance Department is backing a government “Reading Majlis” with book discussions and panels on how technology shapes daily life. Author & Memoir Spotlight: Irish runner Ciara Mageean shares her stage-four cancer journey in “My Greatest Race,” urging readers to “celebrate the joys in life.” Book Review: Sarah Damoff’s “The Burning Side” explores family secrets and grief after a house fire, with no easy villains. Tech & Reading Habits: A new piece argues physical books may offer unique cognitive benefits, while another looks at why people are moving beyond streaming recommendations. Comics/Pop Culture: Lunar Distribution will host a free retailer meet-and-greet at SDCC 2026, with possible shop-exclusive covers.
