- Hangry : a startup journey / by Evans, Mike(Entrepreneur),author.;
"While dreaming of an easier way to order pizza, Mike Evans founded the online food delivery site, Grubhub, in his basement and grew it into the multi-billion-dollar colossus that is now a household name. But it wasn't as easy as searching, clicking, and checking out. Mike's meteoric rise to the top of the booming tech and business world demanded a decade of 80 hour work weeks, endless financing rounds, cliff-hanger acquisitions, the near collapse of his collaterally-damaged marriage, a brutally difficult merger, and a pair of tumultuous I quit/unquit moments, all to steer the company to its successful IPO. And then, at the height of his success, he scrapped it all-leaving Grubhub behind and finding a new path as an entrepreneur, literally, on a solo bike ride across America. HANGRY is the unveiled and unfiltered rags-to-riches story of how Grubhub came to exemplify the promise of tech and the gig worker economy, and how it failed to live up to its impressive potential, even as it threatened Evans's sanity and marriage. "I'd created Frankenstein," Evans writes"--- Subjects: Grubhub (Firm); Food service; New business enterprises;

- Your mom's gonna love me / by Rife, Matt,author.;
One part memoir, one part comedy special, one part crazy first date. Just you and Matt between the covers. What could be better? Matt Rife is well aware that he's both the most loved and the most controversial comic in America today. And honestly, he thinks that's your problem. Matt reveals (without apology, of course) what led him to becoming comedy's biggest lightning rod before he reached thirty, in a story full of bold and hysterical takes on everything from Justin Bieber tramp stamps and rap battles with ex-cons to Matt's struggles with depression and his many brushes with failure before finally hitting it big. Born in trashy backwoods Ohio, Matt was saved by his foul-mouthed but loving grandpa Steve, who fostered his passion for standup. He started hitting comedy clubs before he could even drink, cutting his teeth in front of crowds who dared him to succeed. Matt honed a brand of razor-sharp, brutally honest standup that took no prisoners--and took him to the most famous stages of Atlanta and LA before he graduated high school. Along the way, he broke the hearts of MILFs everywhere, finally hit puberty at the ripe age of twenty-two, and never, ever backed down. Full of Matt opening up, at his unfiltered best, about his life for the very first time, this book will give his millions of fans everything they want and more--and might even get his insecure enemies to change their minds.- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Rife, Matt.; Comedians; Television personalities;
