TIE: Owen Egerton, Melissa Joulwan

Pencils down! Veteran wordsmith and Sinus Show survivor Owen Egerton’s How Best to Avoid Dying is a collection of short stories that are funny, surprising, and just a little irreverent. You’ll appreciate the humor and the depth. Meanwhile, first-time author, flat-track fury, and Hotrod Honey Melissa “Melicious” Joulwan dishes on Roller Derby, showing us the general badassness of the sport. Read Rollergirl: Totally True Tales From the Track, and see how tough – and how smart – the skaters are.
