Fall recess is approaching, and whether or not you're celebrating Thanksgiving, the days off will be a much appreciated break from all our academic and professional obligations. If you find yourself looking for activities to fill the time, we've got plenty of recommendations for you. From novels to films to music, we have a wide range of selections to point you towards. We also have events for this week and the next - in case you're in Baltimore for the break!
This year's Anora may be Jordan Firstman's Club Kid: an indie festival hit that has its theatrical release during break. The film follows Peter (Jordan Firstman), a New York club promoter with an accordingly whirlwind party-goer lifestyle, who deals with the sudden arrival of a ten-year-old kid he never knew he had. As he adjusts to newfound fatherhood, he also deals with the need to re-evaluate what his life should really entail.
Club Kid and its understated but sincere charm will be the perfect watch for the Thanksgiving season as it questions what truly makes a family. The New York Times bestselling author T.J. Klune's newest mystery romance, Murmuration, will be a great cozy read. The novel is set in a seemingly idyllic small town that begins to slowly grow more odd. Mike, the protagonist, works his dream job at the local bookstore.
He's ready to take the next step in his burgeoning romance with the small diner's waiter before he realizes the town they live in isn't quite what it seems. Murmuration's mystery will surely captivate any reader. The hotly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI releases on Friday, so maybe you're ready to spend the rest of your break with the video game of the year.
Even if you're not a Grand Theft Auto fan, the game's accompanying album features new songs from some of the best working musical artists today. Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album already has singles from Young Lean, Metro Boomin, Future, Travis Scott, Morgan Wallen and Cardi B released ahead of the full album. PinkPantheress, Tame Impala and SZA are some of the other artists credited to appear on the tracklist.
