The holidays are here! With the cold weather (finally) making its way to Dallas, it's the perfect time to cuddle up with a blanket, a mug of something warm, and a good book. Here are our staff's recommendations for good reads for the season.
Pulitzer Prize winner Joseph J. Ellis returns with the perfectly formatted book on history and political discourse. What if we could ask the founding fathers their thoughts on our contemporary conflicts? Would we listen? Do their original words still speak to us? Were they hypocritical? Ellis takes on the premise of showcasing a founder’s writings against current global and national crisis. This is what history can do: it can pull the past and the present toward each other to make sense of what may feel impossible to understand. - Tyler Heath

Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup
Pulitzer Prize winner John Carreyrou returns with this year’s true crime thriller where he takes on the failed Silicon Valley startup Theranos. Carreyrou gets incredibly close to the dismantling of what could have been another Steve Jobs if not for the fraud. A book you will not want to give up after you’ve bought it for someone else. This is what good reporting can do. Wow! - Tyler Heath

Masterful storyteller, Zusak, has returned after the long wait since the publication of his widely acclaimed The Book Thief. Bridge of Clay is an epic tale about a family of brothers, the past that still haunts them, and the bridge that will be built to save them. Zusak’s writing is as brilliant as it comes as he weaves his way in and out of the generations and events that brought this family to where they are. You will want to begin it again when you finish, just to savor his writing once more. - Lisa Plummer

Nico Walker’s Cherry almost reads like a William S. Burroughs book: gritty, aggressive, smart. Walker is still serving a prison sentence upon his return from fighting overseas and this novel was composed during that time (his author photo is his mugshot). Cherry takes on drug addiction, PTSD, the working class and war with vulnerability. The perfect book for someone wanting a challenge. - Tyler Heath

Miller is back at it again with another ambitious retelling of one of the world’s most beloved classics. Using the same epic style as the original text, we follow Circe instead of Odysseus for this tale. Spanning hundreds of years, we see Circe’s transformation from a young goddess to a reviled and exiled witch, banished to Aeaea. We get to see her dynamic motivations for every action she took in the Odyssey. Filled with resilience, independence, and heart, you will not want to leave this epic tale when it comes to its close. - Rhiannon Lomonaco

David Benioff's historical novel unfolds like a gritty fairy-tale. During the siege of Leningrad, a boy named Lev finds an ejected German pilot and rifiles the dead pilot's pack for food. Lev is captured by Soviet patrolmen and taken to the menacing Colonel Grechko for judgement. Grechko claims the pilot's body is Soviet property and finds Lev guilty of stealing from the state. The sentence is death. In a cold cell, Lev befriends Kolya, a young deserter who is also awaiting execution. Reprieve comes in an unusual form. Grechko's daughter is getting married and he want's her to have a cake. The war has made it difficult to collect all the ingredients. And so he sends Lev and Kolya out to find a dozen eggs, promising to set them free if they complete the errand. Lev and Kolya go into the starving city and behind enemy lines to search for eggs, encountering cannibals, black marketeers, and and German patrols. This is a terrific read. - Richard Bailey

In 2007, when a new edition of the Oxford Junior Dictionary — widely used in schools around the world — was published, some forty common words concerning nature were dropped. Apparently they were no longer being used enough by children to merit their place in the dictionary. The list of these “lost words” included acorn, adder, bluebell, dandelion, fern, heron, kingfisher, newt, otter, and willow. Among the words taking their place were attachment, blog, broadband, bullet-point, cut-and-paste, and voice-mail--a powerful sign of the growing gulf between childhood and the natural world. Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris conjure back twenty of these lost words, and the beings they name, from acorn to wren. By the magic of word and paint, they summon these words again into the voices, stories, and dreams of children and adults alike, celebrating the wonder and importance of everyday nature. - Lori Feathers

Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris conjure back twenty of these lost words, and the beings they name, from acorn to wren. By the magic of word and paint, they summon these words again into the voices, stories, and dreams of children and adults alike, celebrating the wonder and importance of everyday nature. - Lori Feathers
Subtitled The Rapture of Brodie Moncur, this picaresque follows the life and loves of Scottish piano tuner Brodie as he navigates through fin-de-siecle Paris and St. Petersburg. More earthy than comparable novel The Gentleman in Moscow, this is a delightful and often humorous story and, according to those reviewers who are more familiar with Boyd’s works, a harkening back to his earlier novels. Since this is my first foray into his writing, I look forward to reading his others, especially Any Human Heart. - Brian Weiskopf

Rachel Cusk is a wise and compelling writer. Outline is the first book in a trilogy about a writer named Faye, who is overcoming loss. These books do not have a consecutive plot, but that hardly matters. Outline, like the books that follow, Transit and Kudos, are about bearing witness. They will quietly break your heart and remind you how fruitful it is to listen, really listen, to other people when they talk through their troubles and share their stories. - Richard Bailey

The Texas Food Bible: From Legendary Dishes to New Classics
Published: Grand Central Life & Style - April 29th, 2014
Local chef Dean Fearing is nationally known, and his cookbook from The Mansion was a vast bestseller. This followup, an arguably better book, didn’t get the wide distribution it deserved when published and therefore not the same acclaim, but we mean to right that wrong! It should be easy after a look at these colorful pages. A strong candidate to be a gift for food- or restaurant-obsessed friends, especially after Dean signed all our copies at an event in downtown’s Klyde Warren Park in November. - Kyle Hall

Tiffany's Table Manners for Teenagers
By
Walter Hoving, Joe Eula (Illustrator) , John Hoving
Published: Random House Books for Young Readers - March 18th, 1989
There’s a reason this has been in print for 50+ years, and it’s not just the cute size, the dust jacket in “Tiffany blue,” or the charming illustrations by the great Joe Eula (who’d have been as famous as his colleague Andy Warhol had he been just a bit more odd). No, it’s because this guide to table etiquette for teenagers is great for ANY-agers. The brief text is simple and clear, with just enough explanation of why this, not that. And like any good handbook about manners, it’s about creating confidence so we can all be comfortable, not about making pointless distinctions so somebody can feel superior. A truly invaluable little book - Kyle Hall
