What does it mean to be a bookaholic? It means reading even on the go, owning more books than you could possibly read in a lifetime, and knowing that the best cure for sadness and a way to weather the storm is simply finding the right story.

Work, mortgages, children, global crises… Where can you find solace in this crazy world? The answer from Lucy Mangan, a writer and journalist, and a seasoned bookaholic with forty years of experience, is simple: books. An avid reader should be wary of something else: for example, breaking an ankle (after all, you can't stop reading even on the stairs). In her new work, Lucy explores how books (from romance novels and dystopias to classics and even nonfiction) save us in adulthood, becoming our faithful companions in unraveling the mysteries of the universe and accepting ourselves (and our guilty pleasures).

"Gone with Books" is a declaration of love for books, because they allow us to travel through time and space, living not one, but thousands of lives.
