I’m quite well-read. And by that I mean my assistant is, like, really, really well-read.

  1. Surrounded by Idiots: The Four Types of Human Behavior and How to Effectively Communicate with Each in Business (and in Life)

This worldwide bestseller has changed the way people approach their daily relationships, but you put it on Jeremy’s to-read list because of the title alone. It’s just a funny little way to remind Jeremy that you are better than everyone else in the office (especially him.) 

2. The Bible 

Sure, it’s a classic, but have you seen how long it is? You’d be much better off getting an executive summary from Jeremy.

3. A Court of Thorns and Roses 

It’s not very good, but your For You page won’t stop talking about it and you hate being left out of the loop! Jeremy can handle this for you.

4. Oh The Places You’ll Go 

You make Jeremy read this one aloud to you every day during your lunch break. Ritual is the key to success. 

5. The lease for your startup office space

Technically this is a legal contract, not a book– but you’d still like Jeremy to read it for you. Because you may have been a little ambitious with the amount of overhead you thought you would need by now, and you really need to find a way out of this. Tell Jeremy that if he wants to have a job next month, he will find a loophole in here that you couldn’t. Come on, Jeremy. You can do it. We’re all counting on you.
