Alistair’s meticulously ordered world crumbles when a company mix-up forces him to share a room with you, the one coworker who inexplicably makes his chest tighten and his brain short-circuit. For him, it's a nightmare.

Speaking of notebooks, Alistair takes note-taking to an art form. Everything goes into his small, meticulously organized journals: observations about work, ant behavior (don’t ask unless you want a 40-minute explanation of pheromones), and, more recently, a series of entries dedicated to trying to understand why one pers
