Jon Ronson

Thank you @publisherswkly.bsky.social for making The Castle one of their top ten books for 2026. Also, cashmere for only $40

No one writes immersive narrative #nonfiction like @jonronson.bsky.social . His latest book was excellent, timely, and harrowing. The internet is the Wild West, and #inequality is turning our society into a dumpster fire. You can buy The Castle here: #BookSky

Every @jonronson.bsky.social book is an event. We can't wait to celebrate THE CASTLE (@riverheadbooks.bsky.social) on 10/14 at JCC SF with @litquake.bsky.social! www.jccsf.org/event/jon-ro...

San Francisco! My only upcoming US talk is in ONE WEEK at @litquake.bsky.social

Thank you!! Coventry tomorrow night, then San Francisco, three Australian shows, and that’s it!

A fascinating story of some insecure, mostly unimpressive men, struggling to cope with change and a lack of purpose, by @jonronson.bsky.social. I didn't see how it all tied together at first, but it worked in the end. Riveting, and very topical. #books #booksky #bskybooks

An extremely interesting episode of BBCRadio4 #bbcstw unified by the theme of conformity & collapse. Skilfully curated by @tds153.bsky.social as he talks to @jonronson.bsky.social, Michael Landy & Roisin Kiberd www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Jon Ronson's THE CASTLE is so fucking good. That is all. @jonronson.bsky.social

Finished THE CASTLE, by @jonronson.bsky.social. Yet another engaging read. Reading that during this Trump Administration, HSI agents have been pulled off important matters like human trafficking, I think there's a bigger story for a second book. I'm reminded of @sarahkendzior.bsky.social work.

New from me today: the strange true story of an improbably named Frenchman, a "carelessly dressed" fortune-teller, and the hunt for a mythical golden calf. Plus books by @jonronson.bsky.social and Kate Summerscale: medium.com/singular-dis...

The Best Reviewed Books of the Month bookmarks.reviews/the-best-rev...

The Castle by @jonronson.bsky.social is a kaleidoscope into worlds which I didn't really want to know existed and that made it all the more compelling. Audiobook for this one is a must - Jon's voice is part of the story itself.

Books of 2026: The Castle by Jon Ronson. Bought this less than 48 hours ago and totally demolished it. So very readable, as you'd expect from Ronson. Though it did leave me (more?) depressed about the consequence-free lives of the ultra rich

Cannot recommend the audiobook of The Castle by @jonronson.bsky.social highly enough - especially for fans of his Things Fell Apart podcast series. In amongst the existential despair the book induces, it’s also really very funny.

This book by @jonronson.bsky.social is the most entertaining and shocking book I've read all year #goodreads

"The factors shaping these men are external, but how they react comes from the inside—and many of them remain trapped in their own metaphorical castles, far from the light." @theatlantic.com reviews journalist @jonronson.bsky.social's new book THE CASTLE. 👇 www.theatlantic.com/books/2026/0...

In case you missed our tête-a-tête… @jonronson.bsky.social was adamant he doesn’t really cover the manosphere but let’s be honest, the headline was too good to leave alone.

Been thinking about this brilliant @kimyadawson.bsky.social song a lot since the 9/11 papers came out youtu.be/5v9GyTfG2HI?...

Thank you!!!

the audiobook form of @jonronson.bsky.social's "THE CASTLE" is unbelievably good. proper essential reading (listening?) for where we are now.

Woo! Thank you @jessgrose.bsky.social in the @nytimes.com

In the afterword of @jonronson.bsky.social 's brilliant new audiobook "The Castle" he has a bonus chapter about Chat GPT that goes over this exactly. It is a preview of the next season of his podcast.

I've been loving @jonronson.bsky.social new book The Castle, bought a print copy but then been listening on audiobook on Spotify and run out of credits with 3.5 hours to go. The Bad Baby chapters are wild... The whole thing is wild!

I’ve listened to some fantastic audiobooks lately - The Paper Palace, London Falling - but The Castle by jonronson.bsky.social has been a complete binge listen for me. It’s as structurally beautiful as it is humane. So clever and revealing.

Reading this in print @jonronson.bsky.social has an amazing anecdote about how GQ’s photographer got this picture of Sean Duffy — and the photographer’s uhh less successful experience with Stephen Miller

good golly The Castle was just an extreme delight to read from start to end. three cheers to @jonronson.bsky.social for writing it and bringing his whole self to the proceedings. and for solving the Linehan mystery as far as i am concerned

Devoured @jonronson.bsky.social The Castle yesterday. A hundred stars. I understand why Chris Mark got the title spot but I found the rest of the cast even more engaging. Bravo!

From today's show today: a really great conversation with filmmaker and journalist Jon Ronson about his new book, 'The Castle: Adventures in a World of Unraveling Men' wnyc.org/browse/shows...

Readers, rejoice! @jonronson.bsky.social's new book THE CASTLE is on shelves now. From the bestselling author of SO YOU'VE BEEN PUBLICLY SHAMED comes a darkly comic trip to the furthest reaches of the masculinity crisis. 🔗 www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/318255...

❤️❤️❤️

About an hour into @jonronson.bsky.social 's audiobook version of the castle. Big fan.

"He and his daughters were becoming hugely popular, and he had no idea why." 💡Must-read article for your Monday: this New York Times Magazine excerpt from bestselling author @jonronson.bsky.social's new book THE CASTLE (on shelves 9/1). www.nytimes.com/2026/08/30/m...

Blazed through the latest @jonronson.bsky.social in one festival weekend. Started on the train to Portsmouth, finished as I pulled into Waterloo. Compelling, eye-opening and threaded with the sadness, aggression, self-sabotage and occasional evil of men who've lost the ground under their feet.

I interviewed Jon Ronson about The Castle, his really entertaining if worrying book about uninhibited and purposeless men www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

Tangentially, as someone who got to read The Castle by Jon Ronson in July (review coming soon in the next New Statesman), it is so much more insane than even this paragraph of wild backlash can prepare you for

The NYT magazine has published an extract from The Castle! The book is out Sept 1 in the US and now in the UK. All details - including speaking dates - link in bio! I love this extract. He Was a Top Lawn Care Influencer on YouTube. Then Everything Went Haywire. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/30/m...

The Castle by Jon Ronson is at turns funny, engaging, interesting, and horrifying. Just when you think Ronson can't possibly stumble on anything more unhinged than what you've just read, there's another chapter with something even more batshit. #Booksky 📚🏰

@jonronson.bsky.social's saga of being at the UFC thing at the White House is the gift that keeps on giving. www.gq.com/story/ufc-at...

For more from Ronson on what, exactly, has gone wrong with men in the US (why are so many of them behaving like separatists?), find THE CASTLE on shelves September 1.

Come for the low-flying bald eagles, stay for the insights into American machismo that would have the most iconic gonzo journalists of yore raging with jealousy. Bestselling author @jonronson.bsky.social reports for @gqmagazine.bsky.social on the White House lawn UFC fight.

My “to read” pile is enormous and grows constantly. I’m halfway through book two of 1Q84 but I’ve had to stop because I started @jonronson.bsky.social The Castle and can’t put it down. Takes a lot to stop my reading Murakami.
