While everyone works on keeping their getting-fit, eating-healthy, saving-the-world resolutions (us too) we're working on our TO BE READ list with our homebrewed Quirk Books Reading Challenge. That's right, 12 months and 12 book challenges. We feel all Rory Gilmore book excited!

Here at Quirk we’ve spent the week scouring the internet for the best bookish, geeky, and crafty links. Whether you’re looking for something new to read in 2016, ways to unclutter your digital life, or a video of The Wizard of Oz in alphabetical order we’re sure to have something to make your day a little brighter.

We have less than a month until Regency era zombies invade your local theaters! Mark your calendars for February 5th (preferably with zombie innards)! In the meantime, we want to get celebrations underway by giving away enormous grab bags of movie-inspired merchandise, including Funko Pop Vinyl Dolls, T-Shirts from Hot Topic, and more!

This year, don’t you think your imagination deserves a new, fresh, beautiful place to hold its creations? We’ve rounded up some of our favorite journals for a fresh start. Let’s get those creative juices flowing!

The legendary Nikola Tesla died 73 years ago today. In honor of the brilliant physicist (and inventor, and engineer), we're giving away a set of our Nick & Tesla series (Books 1-5)! 

It’s the start of a brand new year, and for most of us, that means it’s time to start making some changes. While the most common resolutions might be to lose weight or save money, why not set some literature-inspired goals for yourself for 2016? Read more, smile more, be more confident or find a little extra kindness in your year. It may not help you fit into those skinny jeans, but it could make you a lot happier.

Here to help are some of the best quotes from fictional characters – even though they live only in our imaginations, that’s no reason not to turn to them for advice when it comes to keeping your resolutions.
