“Lately, I’ve been able to find a few minutes to read in bed each night after my family has gone to sleep,” says the author of “Mediocre,” “and it’s been absolutely heavenly.”
What books are on your night stand?
Right now I have “Wow, No Thank You,” by Samantha Irby, and an early copy of “The Prophets,” by Robert Jones Jr., on my night stand. Oh, and I also have a copy of “What Wood Is That?: A Manual of Wood Identification,” by Herbert L. Edlin (I’ve taken to buying vintage furniture lately).
