The Book I Just Started, But Am Wholly Recommending.

Me: “I need to read more books.”
Me (after seeing a text that’s longer than two sentences): “Holy shit, I just do not have the time for this.”

However, my friend Mark recently recommended a new book that sounded so fascinating, I immediately bought it. I’m just 40 pages in, and it’s holding up to its publisher’s billing:
The larger-than-life journey of an 18-year-old college freshman who set out from his dorm room to track down Bill Gates, Lady Gaga, Steven Spielberg, and dozens more of the world’s most successful people to uncover how they broke through and launched their careers. 
The book starts with Alex Banayan needing to fund his mission, so his first step: hack “The Price is Right.” Yes, please.
