Posted on October 5, 2019 By Sammy Younan

My weekly collection of new and notable books for your pop culture pleasure and edification: #ReadMoreTweetLess.

September 30

So cool to get talented writer Bari Weiss in book form. Grateful to be away from the painfully predicable and boring white noise of the internet.

Her book is How to Fight Anti-Semitism and it’s from Crown Publishing and it’s out now!

I’m really excited for this to be out in the world. Out September 10 from @CrownPublishing. pic.twitter.com/7o3Eq2WUSk

Stoicism is one of the distinct hallmarks of the 50th anniversary of the moon landing and the entire Apollo mission. They got it won and done.

Along with effective stoicism is Stillness Is the Key out today by Ryan Holiday and published by Portfolio Books!

“@RyanHoliday seems more clear and convicted in his views than ever” with his new book, STILLNESS IS THE KEY, out October 1. https://t.co/XDABDQYgFW
