And then, in god's great joke, we learned there is a second, significantly rarer genetic mutation in my family, and I had a 50% chance of having that one as well, which also meant my daughter might have it. I've been waiting for weeks to find out if I have it. Well, I lived bitch.

3 Plays by Ed Schmidt. In my opinion, Ed Schmidt is the best writer and performer of one man shows currently working, and this collection is a masterclass in theater. If you have any interest in playwrighting, I would especially recommend reading. You'll learn a lot.

Nobody's Hero by M.W. Craven. Ok, I'm honestly surprised about this one, but I have it marked on my sheet as "loved" so I'm going to believe myself. It's a fun and twisty thriller about a man who can't feel fear, that I guess I really really enjoyed.

Wolf in White Van by John Darnielle. I hadn't read this since before it came out (my blurb for it was technically my first published work). Where most books move forward, this one moves in spirals, going over the same moment again and again, showing you just a little more each time.

Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty. Not at all the book it seems to be at first. What starts out sounding like a light little page turner instead turns into a truly beautiful meditation on living in a world where we all must die.

Several People Are Typing by Calvin Kasulke. A man gets trapped in the office slack, and that's just the start of the story. This book manages to perfectly balance the mundane absurdity of office life with the profound absurdity of the cosmos.

Thom Pain (based on nothing) by Will Eno. One of the greatest one man plays ever written, and another huge touchstone for Night Vale when we were starting out.

Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki. Really hard to describe. A beautiful science fiction story about LA donut shops and a cursed violin.

Vacation by Deb Olin Unferth. I first read this book when I was 22, and it opened up my mind to what you can really do with writing. This was one of the original touchstones for Night Vale when we started. Still so weird and good.

Pigs in Heaven by Barbara Kingsolver. A direct sequel to The Bean Trees, and also the novel where I think writing novels fully clicked for her. It just comes together so beautifully in a way I'm not sure she was capable of before.

The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver. Her first novel. I've been starting a big Kingsolver reread project, and while this first one is not as tight as her later work, it still is Kingsolver and fuck, she can write.
