You know who is really great at writing books is your pal @maureenjohnson. Just finished Nine Liars and it's my favorite of hers thus far. She's had a very rough week and it just might lift her spirits if you bought it or checked it out of the library.

@MorganJerkins I just got the digital galley for Missy Robbins' new pasta book and it's sososososo good and useful and empowering. Also, someone should just send you a pasta maker for being you.

There's so much voice and personality anywhere I flip. First of all, I want to eat the thing, but also I'm laughing while reading it. I loved, "I like bananas because they grow and change with me."

I just preordered the living hell out of @tucker_shaw's "When You Call My Name" and feel silly for having not done so before this. If you don't already follow him, here's a great place to start: https://t.co/rJF1eMfqWD

Oh right! My book, Hi, Anxiety: Life With a Bad Case of Nerves came out 6 years ago today. It's about anxiety and I'm proud of it. Maybe read it yourself or tell someone who could use it. Libraries are great, and if you like audiobooks, I read it, myself. https://t.co/womgnfBhFU

My beloved @margareteby texted my this morning to say how much she loves @lindaholmes' Flying Solo and it occurred to me that I hadn't properly publicly screamed about how special and excellent this book is and how it celebrates betting on your own happiness.

I wrote a 5th grade book report on The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, used Douglas Adams quotes as a shibboleth to meet other dorky kids, have a tattered copy of The Meaning of Liff. I don't think any celebrity death has affected me more than his.
