Just finshed "Lake Success," the latest novel from @shteyngart — I'm amazed, as always, by his ability to make me laugh, and to make me care. This is a deeply wonderful book, even if you wouldn't mind killing everyone in it. Maybe because of that, a little. Here's to the flawed. https://t.co/aQE20Mbaxo

After “Nervous breakdowns and moments of grandiosity, alternating,” Andrew Sean Greer has finished his sequel to "Less," and I could not be more excited about a new book. If you haven't read "Less," why not? https://t.co/iHwjEz3zYd

"If we fuck up this planet any more, we fuck up the future for our kids and grandkids. Global warming is serious as sin," wrote the great Willie Nelson in "It's a Long Story: My Life." Happy birthday to Willie, and all who celebrate. https://t.co/8B6KCoCfzJ

@KA_Nicholas One of the nice things about being a liberal arts major: I re-read "The Plague," Albert Camus' novel about taking action in a world in which events seem overwhelming. Rieux and Tarrou carry on their work, despite everything. Existentialism isn't depressing! It can be a comfort.

Gripping and thought-provoking ... In a neat trick, he has simplified the presentation for this younger audience without dumbing it down ... If you buy “Unstoppable Us” for your child, expect some very intense conversations.

Some derided his Gaia theory as New Age pablum, but James Lovelock’s theory of a self-regulating Earth has been viewed as central to understanding the causes and consequences of global warming, writes @modeshift in this fine, sweeping obit. https://t.co/loscNpEA7o

He has a fluid writing style, and a knack for translating science. The beauty of this book is that it could expose a new audience to the crimes committed in the name of continued profit;

"If anything looks too good to be true, or just too kind of hilarious to be true, you should make sure you can find it multiple places before you retweet it," @masullo said, taking the Guv to school. https://t.co/shBlU5luuM via @statesman
