The Book of Mormon actor, who also voices Olaf in the Disney Frozen franchise, is on [Twitter]( reading children’s books aloud. It should keep any little ones in your household briefly occupied (and soothe solo adults too; no judgment). Michelle Obama and LeVar Burton are doing similar things, so when you run out of Gad, move on to their offerings. Little Dragon — Scandi Vibes. This Swedish electropop band has been around for 15 years, but their latest album, New Me, Same Us, is being heralded as their best ever. It preserves their easy-listening appeal while injecting [new energy and flair](. Fetch the Bolt Cutters — Apple Appeal. Fiona Apple’s first [studio album]( in eight years was SO worth waiting for. It’s gorgeous and weird and will always be associated with quarantine for many of us, which frankly is a better association than quarantine deserves. [Revtown — Jeans That Fit Your Life. Right Now.]( Comfortable. Stylish. Evolving. The right pair of jeans lets you stretch your comfort zone, reach toward your goals and feel like you while you do it.

Emily Gould, former star of shit-talking blog Gawker, has a [new novel]( that’s a searching and gorgeous piece of work. It’s about a mother who wanted to make it big in the music business, and her teenage daughter … who derailed those dreams. Fake Love Letters, Forged Telegrams, and Prison Escape Maps — Design for Living. Graphic artist Annie Atkins’ [book]( about her work designing graphic props for films is a lively and interesting dissection of a niche calling. The illustrations are, as you might expect, great too.  WHAT TO PLAY Jim Henson’s Labyrinth: The Adventure Game  — RPGenius. Imagine that instead of being trapped at home with your restless family, you’re all trapped in Jim Henson’s Labyrinth at the mercy of the Goblin King. This [book/game]( is less a hard-core D&D-style RPG and more a collaborative choose-your-own-adventure, guiding you through dozens of scenes featuring creatures and settings from the cult ’80s movie. Best of all, one of you gets to play as the Goblin King (tight trousers and big hair optional), steering the other players through an ever-changing landscape with puzzles and challenges galore. [AND WHATEVER YOU DO, DON’T DO THIS:]( Think crime doesn’t pay. Streaming service Magellan TV has announced it’s looking for someone to watch and live-tweet 24 straight hours of true crime documentaries. The compensation? $1,000, a year’s free subscription and a really weird story about that one pandemic-era job you took because it would be a weird story.
