Find a community through book on being alone

’Tis the season to start dreading the uncomfortable questions about holiday plans if you don’t have the world’s biggest support system.

If that describes you, Lane Moore’s new book How to Be Alone: If You Want To, And Even If You Don't might belong on your TBR list.

Moore has worked for The Onion and Cosmopolitan and created the comedy show Tinder Live, so as you’d expect, her book incorporates some humor along with its wry wisdom.

She discusses the lifetime of experiences that led to her writing this book with Weekend Edition’s Scott Simon, and you can listen to them below or read a transcript on NPR’s website.
