And you might also discover some unexpected treasures and recommendations just because... well, why not? Think of it as your guide to surviving and thriving, with a few detours into my personal rabbit holes.

OTHER STUFF I LIKE FOR VARIOUS REASONS
Fahrenheit-182 by Mark Hoppus
Having worked with Mark a few times, I found him to be engaged, authentic, and a good person overall. His book is terrific.

Earth to Moon by Moon Unit Zappa
This is a fun and seemingly honest story told with humor and awareness.

Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry
