Check out some of Matt Haig's favorite books and read why he loved them so much!

"I love the way Emily writes. It is deeply readable and cerebral all at once. She is making the most compelling science fiction out there and I think The Sea of Tranquility is her best work."

"A brilliant, unflinching, lyrical memoir about illness and grief and the intensity of being there for people and the memories it brings up. It’s a heart-wrenching book but is also healing in its raw truth. I loved it."

"This is a comforting book that really helped my mental health. She is a Buddhist, but the wisdom about acceptance and coping with adversity is universal and fits all of us. Plus the writing is exquisite."

"This is always my go-to choice for anyone interested in writing, though it is as much a treatise on life as it is a creative-writing primer."

"I was sad to when Bill Bryson retired.. He is a brilliant writer. I love all his books. My favourite is One Summer, which articulates a love and passion for history that seems easy but is really rare. He was popular but sometimes underrated because his books are so easy to read. That is a real skill."
