Patton Oswalt's Book Recommendations

"It’s gotten me through some moments when I could have easily eaten myself alive with rage."

"So, @bhousepress has this amazing in-house imprint called "Recovered Books," where they rescue forgotten or obscure novels. GENTLEMAN OVERBOARD is a fast, timely read that absolutely anticipates all of our COVID madness. Can't wait to get into THE SANITY INSPECTORS."

"I dunno if I ever recommended this slim, extraordinary book on recovery and sobriety by poet/essayist/epic fuckup @bucky_sinister but I've now read it twice..."

"Heads up! This book is a GREAT holiday gift if you’ve got a smart, curious, defiant kid! #LetMeBeFrank"

"This book ROCKS. Do NOT miss out!"

"I've been re-reading #Killadelphia from the beginning and it still blows my mind. What I love most about this book -- and there's a LOT to love -- is that it's a truly original take on vampirism. BUT..."

"Hey! When something as good as BITTER ROOT exists someone needs to tell me. Just blasted through the first two trade collections. What an absolutely astounding book. Seriously, I can’t be everywhere at once. Good lord."

"Great comics pull today but DON’T sleep on @saladinahmed’s ABBOTT: 1973. Follow-up to ABBOTT, one of my fave recent books! (And check out that gorgeous Taj Tenfold cover!!!)"

"Our daughter is a voracious reader. But sometimes we get her a book that she blazes through in a day. This was one of those books. ⁦@kimlatricejones⁩ & Gilly Segal’s I’M NOT DYING WITH YOU TONIGHT is fantastic and I can’t recommend it any higher."

"Picked up the new @aliwong book over the weekend! Hilarious, brilliant and touching. GET. IT."

"Oh God he’s written a book."
