Teenage life is tough. You're at the mercy of parents, teachers, and siblings, all of whom insist on continuing to treat you like a kid and refuse to leave you alone. So what do you do when it all gets to be too much? You retreat to your room (and maybe slam the door). Even in our era of Snapchat and hoverboards, bedrooms remain a key part of teenage life, one of the only areas where a teen can exert control and find some privacy. And while these separate bedrooms only became commonplace after World War II, the idea of the teen bedroom has been around for a long time. With Get Out of My Room!, Jason Reid digs into the deep historical roots of the teen bedroom and its surprising cultural power. He starts in the first half of the nineteenth century, when urban-dwelling middle-class families began to consider offering teens their own spaces in the home, and he traces that concept through subsequent decades, as social, economic, cultural, and demographic changes caused it to become more widespread.Along the way, Reid shows us how the teen bedroom, with its stuffed animals, movie posters, AM radios, and other trappings of youthful identity, reflected the growing involvement of young people in American popular culture, and also how teens and parents, in the shadow of ongoing social changes, continually negotiated the boundaries of this intensely personal space. Richly detailed and full of surprising stories and insights, Get Out of My Room! is sure to offer insight and entertainment to anyone with wistful memories of their teenage years. (But little brothers should definitely keep out.)

BUSINESS IS EASY capitalizes on the trend for shorter, more digestible lessons (TED Talks, the rise of book summary services, etc.) and the novelty market for business books. It uses a short sentence to remind business professionals of what they might already know and likely don’t do as often as they should. Business truisms like, “Hire slow, fire fast;” “If you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room.” On the opposite page is a fun illustration to bring the point home. The point is that BUSINESS IS EASY if you do the 100 things that are outlined in the book. The entire book can be read in 20 minutes and makes both a great novelty gift and a serious book for organizational development.
