Modern Romance by Aziz Ansari
Aziz Ansari knows more about your love life than you do. He and a sociologist have been studying people’s texts and online dating activity… and they have a LOT to say. It’ll make you laugh, and learn how to step up your game. But mostly laugh.
Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
Meet your vacation post-apocalypse novel. Imagine a famous actor’s death being upstaged… by a flu that causes the end of the world as we know it. But it’s so good that you feel fine.
When We Were Animals by Joshua Gaylord
Imagine if Twilight were well-written and grown up. Coming of age in this small town is less about braces and more about street fights and lots of sex. Yes, it really is good.
Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll
People are calling this the new Gone Girl. About a 20-something New York woman who looks like she’s got it all figured out. Spoiler: she doesn’t. Reese [Witherspoon] just got the rights to make the movie.
