Praise for Thinking Things Through by Greg Santos:"From faraway hotel rooms to quiet rides in the country, from Perfect Strangers to late-night infomercials, from a Mickey Mouse alarm clock to an all-too-familiar snooze button, and from cheese fries and 3 a.m. Kraft Macaroni & Cheese and Cheetos to Pepto-Bismol, Greg Santos's poems detail, essentially, what all we Gen Y-ers must sadly recognize--or, perhaps, proudly claim--as the sobering truths that daily remind us, whether we like it or not, that we are growing up."
-Molly Gaudry, author of We Take Me Apart
"Thinking Things Through is the literary equivalent of poutine. It's a mash up of high and low culture with gravy on top. The kind of thing you devour at 3 in the morning regardless of the consequences."
-Ben Mirov, poetry editor for LIT
"in these poems greg santos gives thanks to george foreman. he claims to be a lemur. he writes about clicky pencils, ab masters, oscar meyer weiners and mecha squirrels. reading these poems made me think greg santos genuinely killed a dragon but then got nervous and said he didn't. well done greg santos. that dragon was a dick."
-Crispin Best, editor of For Every Year, and wealthiest and healthiest man in the world
