Book Club: The Rose Inc Team’s Winter Reading List
Profile
By Lena Herrmann
MacKenzie Kassab, Director, Copywriter and Editor
“Marley: A Novel by Jon Clinch. Ever wonder why people are the way they are? This book imagines the origin story of two great literary villains: A Christmas Carol’s Jacob Marley and Ebenezer Scrooge. It’s not an appeal for forgiveness or even sympathy, but a dark reminder that nobody’s one dimensional — even if they’re just varying degrees of rotten.”
Verity Pemberton, Senior Director, Creative
“Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin. It’s about two kids who meet in the '80s and end up designing computer games together. It’s a beast of a book but I read it in a flash on holiday; just really immersive and takes you from the late '80s to the early noughties.”
Kristin Petakoff, Senior Manager, eCommerce
“I am late to the game, but I have heard great things about Atomic Habits by James Clear. I added this to my Audible to listen to as I am traveling to my family over the holidays. I want to start the new year able to break bad habits and set healthy boundaries and I’m hoping this book can inspire me to do so.”
Adrian Cabrero, Director, Digital Creative
“I’ll be reading lots of magazines — Dazed, Document, Another — just to escape digital media over the holidays.”
Kiana Basu Sanchez, Senior Director of eCommerce
“I typically like to read two or three books simultaneously — usually a mix of fiction and non-fiction — because as with television or music, sometimes I’m in the mood for something in particular or something else and need to keep it fresh. I’m currently reading Midnight’s Children by Salman Rushdie, a novel that takes place at the start of partition in India, and The Philosophy of Modern Song, a collection of essays by Bob Dylan about pop music. Next on the list is And There Was Light by Jon Meacham, a(nother) biography on Abraham Lincoln.”

Stephanie Tsang, Associate Director, Sales & Business Development
“I have Good Inside by Dr. Becky Kennedy on my list. Highly recommended in my mom group and hoping it will help me become a more confident parent as I enter full-blown toddlerhood with my twin girls.”
Janelle Collins, Project Manager, Global eCommerce
“If you’re looking to prep for the upcoming new year or plan your resolutions, I’d recommend The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg. It illustrates the process of how a habit is formed, how it impacts your life and surroundings and how you can change them. I found it fascinating how companies use the science behind it to grow businesses; it’s unknowingly invasive in some instances.”
Kathryn Bonham, Copy Writer
“Make It Stick: The Science of Successful Learning. I’ve been picking up new hobbies to challenge myself and I like how this book explains the best methods for retaining learned material.”
