Hi, and welcome to this special edition of TV Picks, featuring things that must be read to be consumed, let alone understood: books.
It's still summer for a little while, and these portable and (mostly) breezy reads will cool you down as you sit on the beach, or by the pool, or in an airless candlelit room — however your holiday rolls, it's none of my business, really.
All have something to do with television, as we widely define it around here. (I'm looking at you, Internet.) All should make you feel (mostly) good about life, except that Tim and Eric book, which may leave you feeling uncomfortable, even a little nauseated.
