As 2021 comes to a close (to much rejoicing, by me at least), it's time to look forward to the coming year! To that effect, here are 120 books to look forward to in 2022, all of them sequels or books taking place in pre-existing universes (some of them might still be readable as standalones though!). Keep your eyes peeled for a second list of 120 debuts, new series, and standalones, coming to you as soon as I stop being lazy and get all the links working. Books were picked based on overall popularity, the level of discussion I've seen of the series on the sub, getting a nice even ten books per month, and my own fickle tastes. Lastly, a bunch of these dates are unconfirmed so the final publications might move around a bit, but hopefully not too much!

Hello hello, friends! I've put together a summary of the data collected from the 21-22 cohort on our placements. Hopefully, it's helpful for those applying for the 22-23 cycle.
2021 - 2022 TAPIF PLACEMENT DATA
This data was collected from the 2021-2022 Language Assistants in France cohort. There were 242 responses, with the majority of respondents being of American nationality. The questions asked in the survey were based on the American application.
DISCLAIMER
While I hope this information helps you in the application process, it’s an example of what you *could* expect. The placement process for the TAPIF program has no guarantees for city or academy placement. Also, the data collected skews toward the academies that sent their placements sooner in the summer, with little data from the academies of Reims, Nancy-Metz, Corse, and Martinique.
Access the 21-22 Placement Map
Size Preference
In the application, you can multi-select from village, moyenne, grande, or no preference.
- Villages are less than 25,000 people
- Moyenne villes are between 25,000-250,000 people
- Grande villes are more than 250,000 people
Overall, 59% of respondents did get placed in cities that matched their size preference whereas 41% did not get placed in cities that matched their size preference.
Most academies do not have a grande ville. The following are the only academies that include cities with more than 250,000 people.
- Ile-de-France
- Aix-Marseille
- Lyon
- Toulouse
- Nantes
- Montpellier
- Strasbourg
- Bordeaux
Note, many respondents who selected grande ville were not placed in an academie with a grande ville bigger than 250,000 but were placed in the biggest city in their academie.
Commute Times
Of the 42% not placed in a city size they prefer, 17% can commute thirty minutes or less to their city if they choose to live in a different city. An additional 11% can commute between thirty minutes and one hour to their city if they choose to live in a different city.
- Example One: Laura was placed in Monteux in the Aix-Marseille academie, which is a town of 12,000 people. She asked for a moyenne or grande ville on her application. However, she can take a 25 minute TER to Monteux if she chose to live in Avignon, a city of 92,000 people.
- Example Two: José was placed in Blagnac in the Toulouse academie, which is a commune of 23,000 p
Hello there!
This year, I'm doing a themed bingo square with trans or nonbinary characters in every book. As such, I've spent a lot of time (too much time) compiling books that fit for each square. I had originally intended to post this list after finishing my board with a write-up, but seeing as we are past halfway through the bingo year and I'm on track to finish pretty late, I’ve decided to put this up early so it can hopefully actually be helpful for people still looking to fill their boards.
Books are listed under each category they fit, but I didn’t always check for some of the harder ones (eg. first person, forest setting) if they fit something obvious (eg. published in 2021, cat squasher). Books are sourced from the recommendations thread, the focus thread, the queersff database, readsrainbow, various Goodreads lists, and various threads in other subreddits. Also, disclaimer, I haven't read all these, so categorizations may be inaccurate. Please let me know if you notice that this is the case, or if there are any books I should add or remove!
Without further ado, here's my list of 250+ books that qualify for the trans/NB character square plus at least one other square:

As a reminder, we are holding a special election for theMaster’s Representativeposition. Please share this call widely with anyone you think might be interested!
Why run?
Serving as a leader of WPA-GO is a great way to gain writing program administration experience, network with professional and aspiring WPAs, and participate in cross-institutional professional development with other graduate students. Those on the Leadership Council have a hand in crafting the programming WPA-GO offers to graduate students, ensuring that we are doing our advocacy work in actively anti-racist, inclusive, and intentional ways, and shaping the organization’s movement forward. The Master’s Representative also elevates the concerns and issues particular to those newer to their graduate journeys in writing studies!

However, please note that, as a special election, the term for this position will be 1.5 years instead of the traditional year, with a transition/mentoring period facilitated by our outgoing Master’s Rep and other Leadership Council members running through July 2022 and then the regular term running August 2022 through July 2023.Applicants therefore must have at least one full additional academic year left in their Master’s program to be eligible for this position.

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
