New York Times bestselling author Jen Lancaster is here to help you chill the hell out. When did USA become shorthand for the United States of Anxiety? From the moment Americans wake up, we're bombarded with all-new terrifying news about crime, the environment, politics, and stroke-inducing foods we've been enjoying for years. We're judged by social media's faceless masses, pressured into maintaining a Pinterest-perfect home, and expected to base our self-worth on retweets, faves, likes, and followers. Our collective FOMO, and the disparity between the ideal and reality, is leading us to spend more and feel worse. No wonder we're getting twitchy. Save for an Independence Day-style alien invasion, how do we begin to escape from the stressors that make up our days? Jen Lancaster is here to take a hard look at our elevating anxieties, and with self-deprecating wit and levelheaded wisdom, she charts a path out of the quagmire that keeps us frightened of the future and ashamed of our imperfectly perfect human lives. Take a deep breath, and her advice, and you just might get through a holiday dinner without wanting to disown your uncle.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx24zszwedvs19tq67vxh7p3.jpg?v=9ff3146129","LGP~i{ivTI%LITROSzbb~XkX=|t8",2020,288,[253],{"id":254,"slug":255,"name":256},"01kx24zszryj8z6dqsn3besyaf","jen-lancaster-xp7x","Jen Lancaster",[258,259,260,261],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},{"id":132,"name":133,"slug":134,"is_fiction":17},{"id":262,"name":263,"slug":264,"is_fiction":16},119,"Humor","humor",[],{"pace":267,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":268,"themes":269,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"moderate",[198,97],[270],"coming-of-age",{"id":272,"slug":273,"title":274,"description":275,"primary_cover_url":276,"cover_blurhash":277,"first_publish_year":278,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":12,"page_count":279,"authors":280,"genres":285,"series":290,"enrichment":291},"01kqbt2k1erwhpar8eqe6ymesb","davetsiz-sesler-bx6u","Davetsiz Sesler","Lori Schiller recounts her personal battle with schizophrenia, offering a raw and honest look into the challenges of living with a severe mental illness.

That changes when his parents enroll him in fifth grade at Beecher Prep.\n\nWonder follows Auggie's first year among classmates who stare, whisper, and sometimes cruelly exclude him — and the handful who become true friends.

He organizes human thought into two systems: System 1, fast, intuitive, and emotional, forming impressions and judgments effortlessly and automatically; and System 2, slow, deliberate, and logical, engaged only when we consciously think something through.\n\nMost of daily life runs on System 1, and Kahneman methodically maps the biases and shortcuts it relies on — anchoring, availability, loss aversion, overconfidence, the planning fallacy, and dozens more — showing how these heuristics that serve us well most of the time also produce systematic, predictable errors in judgment.

Yet most knowledge workers have lost it, fragmenting their days across email, meetings, and social media.\n\nThe book unfolds in two parts. The first makes the case that deep work is valuable, rare, and meaningful, drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and the working habits of figures from Carl Jung to Bill Gates. The second lays out a practical training program built on four rules: work deeply, embrace boredom, quit social media, and drain the shallows from your schedule.\n\nPart manifesto and part how-to, Deep Work offers concrete disciplines for reclaiming concentration in a distracted world, alongside a broader argument that a focused life is not only more productive but more fulfilling.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01krp03dhmq1ys6dqdxrn9eemt.jpg","LLLC]-RlR8R-I;R+WXj@}loeWCod",2016,2,300,[394],{"id":395,"slug":396,"name":397},"01kpkh4etm93f1ke0yc8tyrdr1","cal-newport-hjjw","Cal Newport",[399,400,404,405,406,407],{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},{"id":401,"name":402,"slug":403,"is_fiction":17},101,"Management","management",{"id":140,"name":141,"slug":142,"is_fiction":17},{"id":361,"name":362,"slug":363,"is_fiction":17},{"id":192,"name":193,"slug":194,"is_fiction":17},{"id":408,"name":409,"slug":410,"is_fiction":17},98,"Business","business",[],{"pace":267,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":413,"themes":414,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[150,381],[],[416,580,769],{"key":417,"params":418,"works":419},"genre_year",{"genre":33,"year":9},[420,456,490,517,541,562],{"id":421,"slug":422,"title":423,"description":424,"primary_cover_url":425,"cover_blurhash":426,"first_publish_year":427,"community_rating_avg":336,"community_rating_count":94,"page_count":428,"authors":429,"genres":438,"series":452,"enrichment":453},"01kjr37ar04n3ev8epzkd6tsj4","make-your-bed-qsda","Make Your Bed","Admiral William H.

How does a girl—abandoned by her mother at age two and orphaned at thirteen when her beloved father dies—find her place in the world? This memoir is the story of Nadia creating her own solid ground across countries and continents. I know the struggle of rebuilding your life in an unfamiliar place. While some of you might be familiar with that and some might not, I hope you’ll take as much inspiration and hope from her story as I did.” —MALALA YOUSAFZAI ​ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2021 SELECTED BY VULTURE, TIME, ESQUIRE, NPR, AND VOGUE! Young Nadia Owusu followed her father, a United Nations official, from Europe to Africa and back again. Just as she and her family settled into a new home, her father would tell them it was time to say their goodbyes. The instability wrought by Nadia’s nomadic childhood was deepened by family secrets and fractures, both lived and inherited. Her Armenian American mother, who abandoned Nadia when she was two, would periodically reappear, only to vanish again. Her father, a Ghanaian, the great hero of her life, died when she was thirteen. After his passing, Nadia’s stepmother weighed her down with a revelation that was either a bombshell secret or a lie, rife with shaming innuendo. With these and other ruptures, Nadia arrived in New York as a young woman feeling stateless, motherless, and uncertain about her future, yet eager to find her own identity. What followed, however, were periods of depression in which she struggled to hold herself and her siblings together. “A magnificent, complex assessment of selfhood and why it matters” (Elle), Aftershocks depicts the way she hauled herself from the wreckage of her life’s perpetual quaking, the means by which she has finally come to understand that the only ground firm enough to count on is the one written into existence by her own hand. “Full of narrative risk and untrammeled lyricism” (The Washington Post), Aftershocks joins the likes of Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight and William Styron’s Darkness Visible, and does for race identity what Maggie Nelson does for gender identity in The Argonauts.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ezfaspm4khb55e9hdag3g.jpg?v=abd45b6424","LZM3Tb=Y}qW,:+O=,pt7BoIpwgV[",2021,[550],{"id":551,"slug":552,"name":553},"01kx2ezfanvz9stpf6aa86geg2","nadia-owusu-iafq","Nadia Owusu",[555,556,557],{"id":127,"name":128,"slug":129,"is_fiction":17},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":132,"name":133,"slug":134,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":267,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":560,"themes":561,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[149,97,150],[],{"id":563,"slug":564,"title":565,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":566,"cover_blurhash":567,"first_publish_year":568,"community_rating_avg":160,"community_rating_count":94,"page_count":7,"authors":569,"genres":574,"series":576,"enrichment":577},"01kx7f6pj5hwptc0rm45ah2p1p","dear-black-girls-tngy","Dear Black Girls","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx7f6pjnyaq4jjhsthnjg298.jpg?v=c213a50665","LDEB?I.816~W00IA#60Kpco}~B?a",2024,[570],{"id":571,"slug":572,"name":573},"01kx7f6pjgb9f1bappzhkn700j","aja-wilson-2skp","A'ja Wilson",[575],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":92,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":578,"themes":579,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[150,97],[],{"key":581,"params":582,"works":583},"genre_mood",{"genre":37,"mood":97},[584,615,648,699,718,739],{"id":585,"slug":586,"title":587,"description":588,"primary_cover_url":589,"cover_blurhash":590,"first_publish_year":591,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":12,"page_count":592,"authors":593,"genres":598,"series":611,"enrichment":612},"01kkc90ns7jf67fmeehrhvfnsb","the-man-who-mistook-his-wife-for-a-hat-b8zv","Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat","Explore the fascinating world of neurology through the eyes of Oliver Sacks in \"The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat.\" This collection of case studies introduces readers to individuals navigating extraordinary neurological conditions, from memory loss to altered perceptions of reality.

Rescue comes from an unlikely source: Max Demian, an unnervingly self-possessed new classmate who offers Sinclair an unsettling reinterpretation of the Cain and Abel story and talks Kromer out of tormenting him for good.\n\nYears later the two are reunited, and Demian draws Sinclair into a way of thinking that rejects the tidy division of the world into good and evil. Through a church organist named Pistorius, Sinclair studies Abraxas, a god who contains both light and dark, and slowly separates himself from the conventional, sheltered household he grew up in. He drifts through boarding-school rebellion, an idealized infatuation he calls Beatrice, and a deepening friendship with Demian's mother, Frau Eva, who becomes the clearest embodiment of everything he has been searching for.\n\nThe novel closes with the outbreak of the First World War, which pulls Sinclair and Demian into the army and toward a final, quiet parting. First published in 1919 under the pseudonym Emil Sinclair, Demian is Hermann Hesse's account of a young man's break from inherited belief in search of a self entirely his own.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01knnfa0vnq7pzmr62qf2c55xy.jpg","LADk_MNMt%ER7p9uM|nQP8~7v-$}",1919,222,[625],{"id":626,"slug":627,"name":628},"01kjr4rjqt2n56htkrhk602za8","hermann-hesse-oodi","Hermann Hesse",[630,631,632,636],{"id":321,"name":322,"slug":323,"is_fiction":16},{"id":325,"name":326,"slug":327,"is_fiction":16},{"id":633,"name":634,"slug":635,"is_fiction":16},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},[638],{"id":639,"slug":640,"name":641,"position":7,"is_main_entry":16,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kx6n5skya8k088c6yb711fak","dover-thrift-editions-classic-novels-ozl0","Dover Thrift Editions: Classic Novels",{"pace":267,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":643,"themes":646,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[644,97,645,148],"philosophical","atmospheric",[270,647],"mentor-figure",{"id":649,"slug":650,"title":651,"description":652,"primary_cover_url":653,"cover_blurhash":654,"first_publish_year":655,"community_rating_avg":656,"community_rating_count":657,"page_count":658,"authors":659,"genres":664,"series":682,"enrichment":692},"01kjrg79zhv42qq66gdr3q6w85","persuasion-uyg3","Persuasion","Eight years ago, Anne Elliot was persuaded by family and friends to break off her engagement to Frederick Wentworth, a naval officer with no fortune and uncertain prospects.

Anne, steady and self-effacing, must endure his coolness and her own undimmed feelings while navigating the small humiliations of a family that undervalues her.\n\nPersuasion was the last novel Jane Austen completed, published after her death in 1817.

These may seem like minor problems - who cares about notes passed behind your back, or a nasty look, or a party you're not invited to - but they aren't, and they can have a lasting effect on a girl's-esteem.\". \"In fact, as Rachel Simmons shows in Odd Girl Out, the secret world of girls' aggression is just as harmful as the aggression of boys, but it's harder to recognize. Girls are not encouraged to express their anger, and so it goes underground. The importance of relationships to women has long been understood. For girls, losing friends or becoming the object of a clique's derision can be devastating. Yet most teachers don't have time to notice and cope with the problem, and parents feel frustrated and hopeless in combating it. Every generation has struggled with this, and often parents still hold on to their own memories of suffering, making it more difficult when the time comes to help their children.\". \"Now, Odd Girl Out shines the light of understanding on the secret lives of girls. By articulating the dynamics of this behavior, she helps us see where it comes from and offers parents and teachers ways in which to help our daughters.\"--BOOK JACKET.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2kcz0qx94wyqx2sx6bs87a.jpg?v=067dea6637","LIIhZ_4oRkD*~oV[t7NHWnxtjrxu",2002,301,[728],{"id":729,"slug":730,"name":731},"01kx2d58qck55qcj66cznrsj8g","rachel-simmons-7mgr","Rachel Simmons",[733],{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":267,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":736,"themes":738,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[737,97],"informative",[],{"id":740,"slug":741,"title":742,"description":743,"primary_cover_url":744,"cover_blurhash":745,"first_publish_year":746,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":12,"page_count":623,"authors":747,"genres":760,"series":765,"enrichment":766},"01kjswbezgf87g4kvk9kb9sb9y","facing-codependence-kivx","Facing Codependence","This book offers a clear look at codependence, exploring how childhood experiences like abuse and difficult family dynamics can shape this pattern.

Awarded a coveted month-long guest editorship at a New York fashion magazine in the summer of 1953, she moves through a world of luncheons, parties, and photo shoots that leaves her feeling numb rather than dazzled. Beneath the polished surface, she finds herself unable to reconcile the future she is expected to want — marriage, motherhood, quiet domesticity — with the writer and free self she longs to become.\n\nWhen Esther returns home to the Boston suburbs, the disconnection deepens into a full mental collapse. Sylvia Plath traces her descent with unnerving clarity, following Esther through insomnia, paralysis, and hospitalization, and into a course of psychiatric treatment that is by turns frightening and, eventually, steadying. The bell jar of the title becomes Plath's enduring image for depression: a transparent enclosure that seals a person off from the air everyone else breathes.\n\nPublished in 1963 shortly before Plath's death, and drawing closely on her own experiences, The Bell Jar is a landmark of twentieth-century literature. Its sharp, wry, unsparing voice made it a touchstone for readers grappling with mental illness and with the narrow expectations placed on women in mid-century America — a portrait that remains startlingly immediate.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kjqxshyz61m2czb9z2ge03rz.jpg","LGF;[@RNEnIo}?RjIqbc4pK6M_%2",1963,"3.69",326,[784],{"id":785,"slug":786,"name":787},"01kjqxshz7fy35z2w9j67t1g67","sylvia-plath-p0us","Sylvia Plath",[789,790,791,795,796,797,798],{"id":533,"name":534,"slug":535,"is_fiction":16},{"id":313,"name":314,"slug":315,"is_fiction":16},{"id":792,"name":793,"slug":794,"is_fiction":16},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",{"id":325,"name":326,"slug":327,"is_fiction":16},{"id":633,"name":634,"slug":635,"is_fiction":16},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},{"id":799,"name":800,"slug":801,"is_fiction":16},15,"Drama","drama",[],{"pace":267,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":804,"themes":805,"setting_period":7,"summary":806,"content_warnings":7},[148,98],[],"A talented, ambitious young woman in 1950s New England spirals into a mental breakdown while struggling with the expectations of her generation.

Suspicion settles on a nurse whose past does not hold up under scrutiny, and the case widens into questions about how the era's medicine, law, and courts treat women accused of violence against their own children. A courtroom section in the novel's second half, built around a real historical defense attorney, gives the book a different shape than its predecessor: less street procedural, more argument about what a jury can be made to believe.\n\nAs with The Alienist, the historical detail is dense and the pace deliberate — this is a novel more interested in the machinery of investigation and proof than in action set pieces.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kk2bycazxd5c7zc0qsreget8.jpg","L8D0JnIT~pIU4nIU4oxu?c4n-;M{",1997,656,[862],{"id":863,"slug":864,"name":865},"01kjz4pa5g4gfa6rf8rmbs8syk","caleb-carr-6nby","Caleb Carr",[867,868,869,872,876,880,881],{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},{"id":59,"name":680,"slug":681,"is_fiction":16},{"id":71,"name":870,"slug":871,"is_fiction":16},"Mystery","mystery",{"id":873,"name":874,"slug":875,"is_fiction":16},5,"Thriller","thriller",{"id":877,"name":878,"slug":879,"is_fiction":16},44,"Crime","crime",{"id":792,"name":793,"slug":794,"is_fiction":16},{"id":882,"name":883,"slug":884,"is_fiction":16},212,"Historical Mystery","historical-mystery",[886],{"id":887,"slug":888,"name":889,"position":890,"is_main_entry":16,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kk2byceyavaxfhv5czxg1qae","dr-laszlo-kreizler-jl10","Dr. Laszlo Kreizler","2.00",{"pace":267,"complexity":7,"audience":95,"mood":892,"themes":895,"setting_period":7,"summary":896,"content_warnings":7},[148,645,893,894],"tense","gritty",[],"New York, 1897.
