    Bourdain: The Definitive Oral Biography

    by Laurie Woolever

    More than 90 of Anthony Bourdain's colleagues, friends and family tell his story. Courtni's tip: get the audiobook, so you hear them "literally in their own voices."

    Nowhere Burning

    by Catriona Ward

    "Kind of a Peter Pan retelling" about kids who find refuge on an abandoned estate that once belonged to a cult-like celebrity. Eerie, not nightmare-level: a good pick for spooky season.
