As librarian, I subscribe to quite a few publisher newsletters to keep up on books coming soon. I just saw Elie Mystal has a new book coming, so rushed over to #EdelweissPlus to request. I hope they approve.

Bad Law

In Bad Law, the New York Times bestselling author of Allow Me To Retort: A Black Guy’s Guide to the Constitution reimagines what our legal system, and society at large, could look like if we could move past legislation plagued by racism, misogyny, and corruption. Through accessible yet detailed prose and trenchant wit, Mystal argues that these egregiously awful laws—his “Bill of Wrongs”—continue to cause systematic and individual harm and should be repealed completely.

One of the tools I use as a reviewer is #EdelweissPlus. One feature I dislike is their publisher search, specifically for imprints. Ex. Fantagraphics. You can't type that in the search box as it gives no result. You need to know it is under W.W. Norton or you never find those titles.

This feels like a small something they could easily fix, so I don't get why they do not. Otherwise, the site is pretty good overall.
