Comedian Phoebe Robinson’s favorite books include a mix of nonfiction and essays

Phoebe Robinson loves books so much, she made it her job.

Robinson, who founded her Tiny Reparations Books imprint five years ago, tells Page Six that “to know me is to know I love books.”

“Not only do I love them, I smell them,” the comedian says. “Seriously, I adore cracking one open and getting a good whiff. Don’t judge my journey!”

The “You Can’t Touch My Hair” author tells us that going from a blogger to New York Times bestseller to founding her own imprint has been “a dream come true.”

“And while so much of the book world has now become a job, I still find pleasure in reading,” the “2 Dope Queens” co-creator adds. “Whether it’s on a plane, in the corner nook of my couch or on the subway, reading is a big part of my life.”

See below for the “2 Dope Queens” co-creator’s six must-read books.

“Marsha: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P. Johnson” by Tourmaline

“Definitive. Long overdue. Dazzling. What Tourmaline does is necessary and moving. Marsha is one of the seminal figures of our time and to finally have her life captured in a book feels like the biggest gift. So lucky that I get to be the one to publish this monumental work.”

“We Are Never Meeting in Real Life” by Samantha Irby

“Samantha Irby is one of my favorite essayists. Her ability to be vulnerable, hilarious and raw should be studied. This book had me cackling loudly.”

“Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking” by Susan Cain

“As someone who is an ambivert, I was really drawn to Susan Cain’s comprehensive work. It provided such clarity and renewed my understanding of how the world works.”

“Minor Feelings: An Asian American Reckoning” by Cathy Park Hong

“I read this in one day. That is high praise! Cathy Park Hong’s book and writing is riveting, intellectually challenging and wonderful. I’m such a fan.”

“On Writing: A Memoir of The Craft” by Stephen King

“I read this the year I sold and wrote my first book. Chock-full of information and tons of heart. Getting into the weeds of the craft is one of the best ways to honor what we as writers get to do.”

“Frederick Douglass: Prophet of Freedom” by David W. Blight

“This is, hands down, the best book I’ve ever read. So powerful and unforgettable and engrossing. I recommend this to everyone!”
