Dr. No
Percival EverettChase BurkeMy favorite type of novel spends half its time riffing on a specific thing the narrator is well-versed in. E.g. Percival Everett's DR. NO is fun because it's a James Bond riff... but it's doubly fun because of all the asides about math. Love a book full of smart rambling.

Elect Mr. Robinson for a Better World
Donald AntrimChase BurkeWhy did no one tell me that Donald Antrim's ELECT MR. ROBINSON FOR A BETTER WORLD is both a perfect Florida novel AND a perfect society-is-collapsing novel?? Great 2022 reading, let me tell you.
Out of stock
Mouth to Mouth
Antoine WilsonChase BurkeAs for reading...also a slow year! Too much Elden Ring, I guess. But I'm wrapping up ALL THIS COULD BE DIFFERENT by the impossibly cool and smart @smathewss, and yes, folks, it rules. Another favorite was Antoine Wilson's MOUTH TO MOUTH. Oh, and Olga Ravn's THE EMPLOYEES.
