My pal Ari Surdoval has been an invaluable sounding board on all things Replacements over the years. His new novel “Double Nickels" is a remarkable post-punk coming of age story. If you dug “Trouble Boys,” you’ll find a lot to be moved by here. Check it at http://doublenickelsbook.com https://t.co/nhRNyRLw5C

The Sage of Santa Monica, Ry Cooder. His 2011 book, Los Angeles Stories - published by City Lights - is a collection of impressionistic working class pulp tales set in '40s/'50s LA. Pretty damn great. https://t.co/hDBogRJi9b https://t.co/EQhGTcc3dV
