Hi, friends! Welcome to Installer No. 48, your guide to the best and Verge-iest stuff in the world. (If you’re new here, welcome, get ready for a lot of books this week, and also you can read all the old editions at the Installer homepage.)
I’m back after a couple of weeks off — thanks to everyone who wished me a good vacation and sent over book recommendations! I wound up reading Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore, She Rides Shotgun, and The Wager and highly recommend all three.
