Personal updates: Work continues skittish but other wise fine. The baby blanket is past the halfway point and it’s going on pretty well.
Cut for some personal discussion about deciding to not have kids and family being weird.( Read more... )
What I’ve Read
System Collapse! Final book in the Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells. I seem slight doomed to keep re-reading this series, a delightful limbo. Literally every time I finish this series a new book group or friend picks it up.
What I’m Reading
Conclave – Robert Harris – I picked this up after watching the movie, and I’m more and more impressed with how close the film kept the story line and how many of the book’s details would have not played well on screen. It’s a loving condemnation of the Roman Catholic leadership.
In Other Lands by Sarah Rees Brennan – Stalled out but I’ll get back to it.
Kingdom of Copper – about 40%
Wool (The Omnibus Edition) by Hugh Howey – 9% - Weird and interesting but I haven’t hit any major places where the show diverged except tonally.
Male Order – Unwrapping Masculinity -edited by Rowena Chapman - Communist essays about masculinity in England from like 1990 - fascinating. I really think everyone should read political discussions from past decades, it really gives you scope.
It Came from the Closet: Queer Reflections on Horror – 52%
Power Broker – Audiobook Part 3 – 1%
What I’ll Read Next
Empire of Gold
Madness of Angels Kate Griffin
City of Lies
The Memory Librarian
