2018 release from the iconic indie alt-rock band. After the shocking, and for many, demoralizing result of the 2016 election, "I didn't buy the silver lining some were promoting that 'well, at least art and music will be great now!'," says Superchunk co-founder and frontman Mac McCaughan. "Obviously, any sane person would gladly trade four to eight years of terrible music for not having our country dismantled to satisfy the whims of a vengeful child and his enablers." That said, good music and art still have a lot to say, and the urgency of current events gave Mac, Laura, Jim, and Jon the momentum to make something new sooner than later. "It would be strange to be in a band, at least our band, and make a record that completely ignored the surrounding circumstances that we live in and that our kids are going to grow up in." Enter What a Time to Be Alive, Superchunk's first album in over four years. It's a record, says Mac, "about a pretty dire and depressing situation but hopefully not a record that is dire and depressing to listen to." Indeed, like so much of Superchunk's music in the band's nearly three decades together, the songs on What a Time to Be Alive meet rage and anxiety head-on with the catharsis and exhilaration of loud punk fire and vulnerable pop energy.

Wonderful book for all ages!
Format: Paperback
What a delightful book this is! So far I have ordered one for myself...and one for an 8 year old grandson. My 11 year old grandson has borrowed my copy, and so far I don't have it back, so I'll be needing to purchase another one! The story is funny and heartwarming and wonderfully original. The drawing is perfect for the characters and settings, all enhanced by the marvelous and vivid color. Buy this book! Everyone you know will appreciate it!

10 year old reluctant reader LOVES THIS BOOK!!!!
Format: Paperback
I'm constantly trying to find books to tempt my 10yr old reluctant reader. He LOVES this book!! He has been reading it outloud to our dogs, and at several points I could hear him absolutely cracking up. The artwork is fantastic, the plot is hilarious. Honestly I'm enjoying it as much as my son (and the dogs!). Yesterday he had a friend over.... and instead of making a beeline for the xbox as usual.... my son said, "let me show you my new book" and proceeds to read a particularly funny portion outloud. Both boys laughing. Truly, 5 stars. (PS author, please say you've already started the second installment??)

Amusing cartoons
Format: Paperback
So two cats create a mechanical dog suit to fight crime and, in the end, save the planet. Mostly fun times, although there are some stretches of credulity in the overall story. Generally fun, however.

Two earth cats Vs. Three aliens!
Format: Kindle
Crazy! I didn't expect that the super hero dog was actually two cats! It was a fun surprise to find that out and learn their history! I would recommend this book for readers who like aliens,cats,dogs,mystery...(squirrels,explosions,and even blobs.)

Great for reluctant readers
Format: Paperback
My 5th grade reluctant reader said it was very funny, and gave it 5 stars. It would be great for fans of Dogman, as that is his other favorite series.
