We asked Ami Greko, formerly of Folio Literary Management and — as of today! — Digital Marketing Manager at Macmillan, to recommend a story, and she picked Free Time by Jesse Jarnow.

“The dread starts early in this story,” Ami says, “so much that I felt the desire to scream at the main character that his simple, out-of-date calendar will lead to horrible mistakes–but I was also sort of glad I couldn’t, since the accumulation of that dread (and eventual payoff) is so enjoyable to read.”

You can follow Ami’s bookish passions via her Twitter stream.
