The Reason You’re Alive by Matthew Quick is another spectacular book from the author. At this point, I’ve read everything by Quick except Sorta Like A Rock Star. Each of his books has had a profound impact on me. The Reason You’re Alive is a book that I also had found impactful — although — not incredibly […]
The Good Luck Of Right Now by Matthew Quick | Book Review

I am such an obnoxious fan of Matthew Quick’s work. I’ve yet to read a book by Quick that I do not like. The Good Luck Of Right Now contains all the hallmarks of Quick’s other works.
