The Book: Everything Beautiful Began After by Simon Van Booy
Teasers: Page 50, "Lonliness is like being the only person left alive in the universe, except that everyone else is still here."
Page 97, "Professor Peterson's office was the most dangerous place on campus. Books piled ten feet high leaned dangerously in various directions. On the tallest tower of books, a note had been hung halfway up: Please walk very slowly or I may fall on you without any warning whatsoever."

I love both of these. The one on loneliness is spot on. And I love the image of Professor Peterson's office.
