  God or Nature Whatever -...

  God or Nature, Whatever is what happens when a philosophy grad student decides to explain Baruch Spinoza—the 17th-century lens grinder who got canceled by every major religion—using sarcasm, swearing, and a deeply unhealthy relationship with Euclidean geometry. 
  Sophia Blackwell takes Spinoza's Ethics (a book structured like a math textbook, only less fun) and translates it into plain, hilarious, possibly heretical English. The result? A philosophical roast that actually teaches you something. 
  Inside, you'll learn: 
  Why Spinoza thought God was just... everything (yes, including you, your dog, and that one sock you keep losing). 
  How he managed to be too atheist for the religious and too God-obsessed for the atheists. 
  Why your free will is fake but your bad decisions are still kind of your fault. 
  How to find spiritual peace by accepting you're a temporary Mode of an infinite Substance and not special at all (yay!). 
  And why Einstein loved Spinoza while religious authorities mostly wanted him yeeted into oblivion. 
  This book is for anyone who's ever read a sentence from a philosopher and thought, “Why are you like this?” It’s also for readers who like their deep metaphysical insights wrapped in existential dread and memes. 
  Perfect for fans of irreverent nonfiction, people pretending to understand Spinoza, and anyone who’s been excommunicated for asking too many questions

  Hi Anxiety - Life With a Bad...

  Joining the ranks of such acclaimed accounts as Manic, Brain on Fire, and Monkey Mind, a deeply personal, funny, and sometimes painful look at anxiety and its impact from writer and commentator Kat Kinsman. 
  Feeling anxious? Can’t sleep because your brain won’t stop recycling thoughts? Unable to make a decision because you're too afraid you’ll make the wrong one? You’re not alone. 
  In Hi, Anxiety, beloved food writer, editor, and commentator Kat Kinsman expands on the high profile pieces she wrote for CNN.com about depression, and its wicked cousin, anxiety. Taking us back to her adolescence, when she was diagnosed with depression at fourteen, Kat speaks eloquently with pathos and humor about her skin picking, hand flapping, “nervousness” that made her the recipient of many a harsh taunt. With her mother also gripped by depression and health issues throughout her life, Kat came to live in a constant state of unease—that she would fail, that she would never find love . . . that she would end up just like her mother. 
  Now, as a successful media personality, Kat still battles anxiety every day. That anxiety manifests in strange, and deeply personal ways. But as she found when she started to write about her struggles, Kat is not alone in feeling like the simple act of leaving the house, or getting a haircut can be crippling. And though periodic medication, counseling, a successful career and a happy marriage have brought her relief, the illness, because that is what anxiety is, remains. 
  Exploring how millions are affected anxiety, Hi, Anxiety is a clarion call for everyone—but especially women—struggling with this condition. Though she is a strong advocate for seeking medical intervention, Kinsman implores those suffering to come out of the shadows—to talk about their battle openly and honestly. With humor, bravery, and writing that brings bestsellers like Laurie Notaro and Jenny Lawson to mind, Hi, Anxiety tackles a difficult subject with amazing grace.

They are legends.And they are our prey.Earth is dead. Which leaves us stuck living in atmospheric domes on planets that will kill us if we blink wrong, or run out of fuel. And by ‘fuel’ I mean cerebrospinal fluid, harvested at great risk from gargantuan space monsters.I joined the hunt hoping to get paid and maybe laid, but mostly paid. And I followed a charismatic captain eager to face these beasts and to howl her defiance across the skies of Jupiter. On her crew, I met Q, a woman from the wreck of old Earth, who might have kept me grounded. Or then again, perhaps not.We were ordered to hunt the greatest leviathan of all, and we fought beasts and ships and one another. Then we finally met our nemesis, there above the red heart of that world. Spoiler: it didn’t end well.‘Moby Dick meets Treasure Planet by way of Fleabag – an unbelievable accomplishment from a tremendous author’- Sarah Gailey, author of Spread Me and Just Like Home‘Hall’s best, weirdest, and most snarkily delightful book yet . . . intricate perfection’- Ruthanna Emrys, author of A Half-Built Garden‘Wow’- John Scalzi, author of Starter Villain
