I got a text a few weeks ago from a friend looking for book recommendations for someone going through a hard time who needed a distraction and potentially a boost. I fired back five books, and another friend on the thread asked how much of a reading snob this person was and if they only like “NYT bestsellers.” (Direct attack)
Twisted the knife by also asking if they care about the “quality of writing in books.” All is fair in love and war. Here are the books I recommended!
