There were some books that reached through the noise of life to grab you by the collar and speak only the truest things.
Jeffrey Eugenides, The Marriage Plot

Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

Everything you have read or heard about Jon Klassen’s I Want My Hat Back is true. The book is funny, gorgeous, and perfect — an instant classic if ever there was one. Beautiful minimalist art and smart, funny writing.
