'Bingeing Our Way Into 2022' by Jen Heuer Scott
NoveList marketing specialist Jen Heuer Scott posted the following on the company’s blog:[During the pandemic,] I suddenly found myself craving the comfort of a good binge. I watched it all—past and present, silly or serious, squeaky clean or blood-filled. No show or steaming service was safe. American Horror Story, Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones, Insecure, Schitt’s Creek, all incarnations of The Walking Dead, and much, much more. If nothing else, I can say that COVID prepared me to dominate both trivia night and the zombie apocalypse. … Our NoveList librarians are always looking for ways to give you more and better ways to connect your patrons to books they will love. This is even more important in the age of bingeing. What do you do when current or potential patrons come stumbling through your doors, eyes bleary from that 20-hour binge of Stranger Things, wondering what they could possibly read? Time to turn to our super popular For Fans Of Recommended Reads lists, which each feature 20 or so titles connected to tv shows, movies, games, and music that people can’t get enough of. Our team has been extremely busy adding new lists over the last 18 months, reflecting that bingeing is here to stay for at least a little while longer. For more information and a list of other ways to reach out to library patrons about the shows they’re bingeing, read the blog post.
