Happy release day to The Gentleman's Guide! GUYS, THIS BOOK. Is one you won't want to miss. It follows two gentleman in the 18th century on a tour of Europe and all the unexpected hijinks that ensue. It is an adventure novel that will have you on the edge of your seat, but it has a light and comical tone that will keep the pages turning. And the best part is the flawed but insanely root-for-able characters. I DARE YOU not to fall in love with them

Scrappy Little Nobody | Anna Kendrick

Celeb memoirs is a weird genre. I mean Kendrick is 31, it's hardly as if this is a reflection on her complete career. In some ways it's more honest: you hear her own voice, not filtered through a character or in an interview. You get insight into her personality and sense of humor and opinions. It's intimate in the way a biography never could be. In other ways it's still acting: a filtered representation herself with definite comedic intention.

In classic AS KING fashion, this book is weird and thought provoking and looks at deep emotion from a uniquely removed perspective.

It would be hard NOT to fall in love with this series in all of its sweetness and charm. I'm excited to learn there will be another sequel.

Le Horla | Guy de Maupassant

"Solitude is dangerous for active minds. When we are alone for a long time, we people the void with phantoms."

A masterpiece of nineteenth-century French literature, Le Horla blurs the line between reality and insanity.

Highly Illogical Behavior | John Corey Whaley

Pickpick

Highly Illogical Behavior is a fine book in its own right. It's about friendship and loneliness and growing up and wasting time and living life and that feeling when you're underwater and you can't hear anything except your own aliveness and presence. It's about a boy who just can't... learning that he already is.

Neverwhere | Neil Gaiman
Pickpick

Neverwhere was the first book I ever read by Neil Gaiman. It was given to me for Christmas when I was in 7th grade by an aunt who insisted I read "real vampire books." Relistening to it in all the glory that is Neil Gaiman's voice has brought new delights to light. It's the mark of a great book when it gets better each time you read it.
