Abundance by Ezra Klein & Derek Thompson

“An optimistic vision of a government that builds enough good things for all of us. Two of the best journalists of our generations take on problems with building, inventing, and overly-complicated regulations in the U.S. - and offer a new version of politics that promises better things ahead.”

Justin • Monstera's Books
The Instrumentalist by Harriet Constable

“Feminist rage, music, historical fiction, and Emilia Clarke as the narrator. The prose is breath takingly captivating, and it's rather easy to get lost and feel as if you are a member at this orphanage. ”

Sophie • Second Star to the Right
Shark Heart by Emily Habeck

“If at all possible, try not to read the summary, and just jump in all the way.”

Sophie • Second Star to the Right
The Double Life of Benson Yu by Kevin Chong

“Disney's The Kid meets Five Star Stranger in story of a man attempting to confront his childhood trauma.”

Sophie • Second Star to the Right
The Sherlock Society by James Ponti

“Yes, it's for kids, but I truly recommend this book to anyone who loves a good mystery!”
