    Perhaps you’re already aware that tonight is the National Book Awards, AKA “the biggest night in books,” AKA book prom, AKA the night of a thousand tote bags (just kidding! It’s very fancy). Tonight’s event will be hosted by LeVar Burton (and will probably go down like this), and you can watch all the action via the National Book Foundation’s livestream.

    And of course, if you’re interested in the color* commentary of your favorite literary website, we’ll also be live-tweeting the whole thing.

    *wine is a color.
