In Our Feeds: Remembering R.A. Montgomery, coloring books and life-changing reads

Each Friday, we share a handful of links we found interesting, provocative, funny — or just plain cool. We call it In Our Feeds. Have a good weekend!

Unfortunately, I have start with some sad news. Gina just informed me that the founder and author of "Choose Your Own Adventure" passed away. The book franchise, a major cornerstone of pop culture, sold over 250 million books. Do you have any great "Choose Your Own Adenture" memories from your childhood? Share in the comments below. 

Go grab a coloring book! Nadia sent me an article showing that adults who color show lower levels of stress. I will definitely need that before my evening commute. 

Have you ever heard of the "fiction feeling hypothesis"? Apparently, it's a emotional phenomena that occurs while reading our favorite reads, thus proving you can truly get "lost in a book."

This is a great article (thanks, Brittany). Folks share 51 books that changed their lives. A must-read and very uplifting. Enjoy.
