Marlon James’ The Disappearers, Jon Ronson’s The Castle, Chloe Benjamin’s Under Story, and Emily Wilson’s Crossing the Wine Dark Sea all feature among the best reviewed books of the month. Brought to you by Book Marks, Lit Hub’s home for book reviews. * Fiction 1. The Disappearers by Marlon James (Riverhead) 13 Rave • 2 Positive • 2 Mixed Read a profile of Marlon James here “A harrowing, hilarious, magnificent novel that will stand the test of time … He invents his own literary language, horny yet tender, punctuated by puns and music and elegant flourishes. He jolts the narrative sideways and backwards, thumping his suspense line like an expert bassist … His defiant queer epic belongs to us all.” –Hamilton Cain (The Boston Globe) 2. Under Story by Chloe Benjamin (G.P. Putnam’s Sons) 6 Rave • 2 Positive • 1 Pan “The novel’s success hinges on your ability to suspend your disbelief as profoundly as you draw upon your capacity to love. With the portals and time travel, the story requires an open mind. Even with such a fantastical plot, Benjamin draws complex, deeply human characters … Benjamin could have written a far shorter novel. Some may say that less is more. But Under Story isn’t meant to be a minimalist work … Expands our expectations of living.” –Lauren LeBlanc (The New York Times Book Review) 3. Agrippa by Robert Harris (Doubleday) 5 Rave • 3 Positive • 2 Mixed • 1 Pan “Imaginative … Thrilling … A swift-paced romp through a few crucial decades of Roman history, breathing life into a figure who played a central role in the story of the late republic.” –Michael F. Bishop (The Wall Street Journal) 4. Asmodeus by Rita Indiana (Graywolf) 2 Rave • 2 Positive • 1 Mixed “[A] dark fantasy … The poetry and musical lyrics are all masterfully translated by Obejas, a respected novelist in her own right. Indiana presents music (and story) as a venue for addressing the problems that plague this viscerally squalid, gritty, and painful world.” –Sara Martínez (Booklist) 5. I Liked Rex by Diane Williams (NYRB Classics) 1 Rave • 1 Positive • 1 Mixed “Delightful characters, curious images, and love affairs gone awry animate this minimalist metafictional collection … These deceptively simple stories eschew linear plots to home in on arresting images and phrases that reveal their characters’ complex and resonant inner lives: ‘The loss of paradise keeps happening,’ reflects a recent divorcé. This is one to savor.” –Publishers Weekly ** Nonfiction 1. The Castle: Adventures in a World of Unraveling Men by Jon Ronson (Riverhead) 7 Rave • 3 Positive • 1 Mixed “This is his first book in 11 years and it’s as good a read as any of his previous big hits. A Jon Ronson book is never clear-cut, there are no neat finishes or satisfying conclusions. The Castle is no different. But like all of his writing, this book will open new insights for you, and it will linger long after you’ve closed the final chapter … A great attempt to unpick modern masculinity and to see what is prompting a real mental health crisis in men. Only when we understand it will we be able to address it.” –Sinead Gibney (The Irish Times) 2. American Scoundrel: Roy Cohn’s Dark Journey from Joe McCarthy to Donald Trump by Kai Bird (Scribner) 7 Rave • 2 Positive “I gobbled up every page … A bounteous cornucopia of midcentury sleaze and uneasily addictive for just that reason … As ugly and lurid as this saga is, American Scoundrel is consistently riveting, full of astonishing twists, ballsy plots, and eleventh-hour escapes from justice, like the legal version of the exploits of some Old West outlaw who is forever eluding the sheriffs by the skin of his teeth.” –Laura Miller (Slate) 3. Crossing the Wine-Dark Sea: Journeys Through Ancient Literature by Emily Wilson (Liveright) 6 Rave “Wonderfully spirited … An expert in the ancient world, she nevertheless draws constantly (and productively) from contemporary culture … Wilson elegantly braids together close, line-by-line readings with larger arguments about how much is often at stake … You don’t even have to be particularly interested in ancient literature to enjoy this book, though by the time you finish it you probably will be. Wilson’s excitement for her subject is irrepressibly moving.” –Jennifer Szalai (The New York Times) 4. The Bed Trick: Sex and Deception on Trial by Izabella Scott (FSG Originals) 2 Rave • 2 Positive • 1 Mixed “Scott is less interested in whether this was the correct verdict than she is in investigating the larger meanings of this strange, sad trial, which exposed the private lives of both participants to ridicule … Scott is a supremely good guide to this complex terrain, thoughtful, nuanced and agile.” –Olivia Laing (The Guardian) 5. 53 Days: How Hitler Dismantled a Democracy by Timothy W. Ryback (Atlantic Monthly Press) 2 Rave • 1 Positive • 1 Mixed “Step by step, the book recounts the process by which Hitler exploited his position in order to install autocracy. Ryback deftly manages what could have been an unwieldy narrative, allowing readers to draw their own conclusions about the book’s relevance to current events.” –Kirk Johnson (Booklist)

How tariffs affect home buyers, sellers, and Realtors in 2026 is becoming an increasingly important real estate conversation as higher costs for lumber, steel, aluminum, copper, cabinets, appliances, and other goods work their way through housing.Tariffs do not affect every property or transaction equally. But they can influence new construction costs, renovation budgets, replacement expenses, and housing affordability. NAHB reports that residential building-material prices excluding energy were 5% higher year over year in July, while softwood lumber was up 17.3%.That creates problems for consumers, but it also creates an opportunity for Realtors to become better problem solvers.The Buyer Problem: Affordability Goes Beyond the MortgageBuyers already focus on purchase price, interest rates, taxes, and insurance. Tariffs introduce another consideration: what will this home cost after I buy it?Higher prices for appliances, cabinetry, lumber, and metals can make renovations and repairs more expensive. NAHB notes that tariffs on building materials can ultimately reach consumers through higher housing and product costs.For Realtors, the opportunity is education. Help buyers distinguish between move-in-ready homes and properties requiring substantial near-term improvements. Encourage realistic renovation budgets, contractor estimates, and inspection-driven planning before an offer is finalized.Understanding how tariffs affect home buyers, sellers, and Realtors in 2026 can turn property condition into part of the affordability analysis.The Seller Problem: Improvements May Cost MoreSellers face a different question:Should I renovate before listing, or sell the property as it is?A $25,000 renovation does not automatically create $25,000 or more in market value. With construction inputs under cost pressure, unnecessary presale projects can become particularly expensive. National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) says builders reported a median 6.7% increase in material costs for the same home during the past year.The Realtor becomes the strategist. Use comparable sales to identify improvements buyers are actually rewarding. Sometimes paint, lighting, cleaning, landscaping and professional presentation may make more economic sense than a major kitchen or bathroom renovation.The Realtor Opportunity: Become the Cost InterpreterThis is where how tariffs affect home buyers, sellers, and Realtors in 2026 becomes more than an economic story.Realtors cannot control tariffs, interest rates, or construction costs. They can help clients understand their consequences.For buyers, that means evaluating purchase price plus anticipated ownership and improvement costs.For sellers, it means determining which improvements may produce a meaningful market return and which may simply consume equity.For investors, it means recalculating rehabilitation budgets, contingencies, and potential returns when material costs change.The Realtor who can connect economic conditions to an individual property decision becomes far more valuable than someone who simply opens doors or places a listing online.The Bottom LineTariffs create uncertainty. Knowledge creates strategy.Whether buying, selling or investing, consumers need real estate professionals who can translate changing market conditions into practical decisions.Need help evaluating your next real estate move?

Somewhere between the whitewater rafting signs and the pasture fences of southeastern Tennessee, there is a working farm where a kangaroo will lean in and take food right out of a child’s hand. Zebras graze on one side of the property, a river runs along the other, and a two-toed sloth waits inside a warm enclosure for its next round of visitors. Nothing about the drive out there suggests what you are about to walk into, which is exactly what makes it stick. For families counting gas money and weekend hours, this is the rare stop where the memory outlasts the receipt. A Working Farm Tucked Along the Ocoee River © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Ocoee Riverside Farm sits at 1087 Reynolds Bridge Rd in Benton, Tennessee, a small Polk County community wrapped in pasture, ridgelines, and the Ocoee River itself. Roughly 45 minutes north of Chattanooga, the farm lands almost exactly halfway between Chattanooga and Knoxville, which makes it an easy morning drive from either metro. Nashville families should plan on about 3.2 hours behind the wheel, so that one works better as an overnight than a day trip. Calling it a petting zoo undersells it. More than 100 animals representing over 50 species live here, from goats and sheep to zebras, camels, llamas, spider monkeys, fennec foxes, sugar gliders, and sloths. What separates the place from a standard roadside attraction is the format. There is no turnstile and no general admission fee. Instead, guests book specific hands-on encounters ahead of time, and staff walk small groups through each one. One practical warning worth writing down before you leave home: use Google Maps for navigation. Other apps have been known to send drivers down the wrong rural roads out here. How a Family Operation Grew Into an Animal Encounter Destination © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Ask around and the same two names come up: John and Donna, the owners, who guests repeatedly describe as being right there in the middle of things, leading tours and handling animals themselves. Guests mention meeting the family and the wider crew on the same visit, which tells you a lot about the scale. Staff members get named constantly in visitor accounts, usually for how patiently they handle a nervous child or an endless string of questions. Word of mouth built the rest. Some visitors say they first spotted the farm on social media and started planning from there, and a few mention waiting months for the right window to make the trip happen. The animal-care philosophy shapes the whole experience. Visitors consistently note that no animal is pushed into interacting if it is not in the mood, and that many creatures free-range across the pastures, wandering over on their own to be petted. Presentations sometimes weave in faith-based references, something families have specifically appreciated. Whatever your background, the takeaway is consistent: this is a farm run by people who clearly enjoy showing it off. Bottle-Feeding a Joey and the Kangaroo Hop © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Picture a kid holding a bottle while a baby kangaroo wraps both front paws around it and drinks. That is the moment families drive here for, and it runs about $19.95, though pricing can shift with the season. Adult kangaroos are woven into the general farm tours and encounters too. Guests can get close, sometimes hand-feed them, and watch the whole mob bounce around the enclosure while a guide explains how the animals actually work. For a deeper visit, the VIP Kangaroo Encounter includes a segment called the Kangaroo Hop, when the joeys come out to play. That upgrade gets added onto the farm tour by plenty of visitors, and it is the one people talk about most afterward. Kangaroos rack up more than 100 mentions in visitor feedback, second only to the sloths. Adults show up expecting the kids to be the excited ones and leave saying they are the ones now obsessed. Field trips have done the cuddling version too, with groups reporting time spent holding baby kangaroos before moving on to the next barn. Thirty Minutes Inside the Sloth Enclosure © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Sloths are the headliner here, mentioned nearly 250 times in guest feedback, and the farm has built two distinct experiences around them. The standard Sloth Encounter runs $64.95 per person and allows up to four guests, ages 5 and older, into the enclosure for 30 minutes. Inside, you can pet, hand-feed, and interact with one of the resident sloths while a handler explains their habits. Want more time? The VIP Sloth Encounter costs $179.95 per person, lasts a full hour, introduces you to two different sloths, and includes the chance to actually hold one. That version is limited to guests 12 and up. Resident sloths include Zoey, Flash, and Dash, plus Chloe, a two-toed sloth several visitors describe holding. One family called their daughter’s turn with Chloe the part she still cannot believe happened. Small detail with real consequences: skip perfume and lotion before your encounter. Sloths have sensitive noses, and the farm asks guests to arrive scent-free. Kids and grandparents alike book this one, and it books up, so reserve early. Camels, Mini Cows, Monkeys and the Critter Coral © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Camel kisses. That is a genuine option here, alongside camel rides, and school groups have come away talking about it more than anything else. The Farm Tour and Animal Encounter is the backbone booking. It covers both domestic and exotic species, includes access to the Critter Coral petting zoo, and comes with food so guests can hand-feed as they go. Fans of big shaggy livestock should look at the Mini-Moo and Petting Zoo experience, which puts you alongside miniature Scottish Highland cows for $16.95. That one is open to ages 8 and up. Spider monkeys have their own following, described by guests as adorable and thoroughly unhinged in the best way. There are also fennec foxes, sugar gliders, micro squirrels, llamas, goats, sheep, reptiles, and zebras grazing within view of the cabins. Horseback riding rounds out the lineup, and several families have paired a morning ride with an afternoon farm tour. Guests who add two or three encounters in one day report the day never dragged, largely because the guides keep the facts coming between animals. Sleeping in a Covered Wagon or the Sloth Suite © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Overnight lodging turns a day trip into something bigger, and the options on this farm are not ordinary rentals. Covered wagons sit near the river with individual bathrooms and fire pits, and guests can preorder firewood for the evening. Visitors describe sitting by the fire listening to a mix of wild and farm animal sounds after dark. The Riverside Cabin comes with a full kitchen, and one family said they cooked every meal there and never got back in the truck all weekend. The river runs directly behind it, close enough for morning fishing. Then there is the Sloth Suite, which grandparents and grandkids alike rave about for its hidden rooms, tunnels, and windows overlooking the sloths and other animals below. Wagon guests mention thoughtful touches: walk-in showers, ceiling heat lamps, Bluetooth speakers in the bath house, and all-natural cleaning products throughout. Practical bonus worth factoring into the budget: overnight guests often receive discounts on animal encounters, and several say they got more hands-on time simply by staying on the property. Covered wagons alone draw 33 separate mentions from visitors. Booking, Hours and What to Wear © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Reservations are the whole system here. Nothing runs walk-up, so pick your encounters and book them before you drive. The farm shop is open Monday through Saturday from 10 AM to 5 PM, and most animal encounters run on that same Monday through Saturday schedule. Holidays and special events can change things, so a quick phone call to 423-241-3738 before you leave is smart. There is no general admission charge at all. You pay only for the specific experiences you reserve, which means a family can build a budget-friendly afternoon around one $16.95 mini cow session and a $19.95 joey feeding for well under the cost of a nice dinner out. Closed-toe shoes are recommended for many activities, and skipping scented lotion matters if sloths are on your list. Age minimums vary by encounter, from 5 for the standard sloth visit to 12 for the VIP version. The farm stays open year-round, which makes it a solid cold-weather option when other Tennessee attractions shut down. One more time, because it matters: navigate with Google Maps. Why This One Earns the Drive © Ocoee Riverside Farm, Benton, TN Some days out cost a lot and fade fast. A kid who has bottle-fed a joey and stood inches from a sloth tends to bring it up for years. Multi-generational groups seem to do especially well here. One party of seven spanning ages 10 to 60-plus found something for every member, which is a rare thing to pull off on a single outing. Teens work too. A chaperone who brought a group reported that everyone, herself included, learned more than expected and stayed engaged through the sugar gliders and micro squirrels before the kangaroos closed things out. What comes through most in visitor accounts is the staff. Knowledgeable guides get flagged well over 200 times, and families keep noting how patient the guides are with small children. Budget-wise, start small. Book the farm tour, add one encounter that matches your kid’s obsession, and see how the day feels before committing to a VIP tier or an overnight in a wagon. Prices and schedules can shift seasonally, so confirm before you load the car. Then go let a kangaroo eat out of your hand.
