I can’t make it to the Granfalloon fest in Bloomington this week, but I’m reading Cat’s Cradle in honor of the event. Can’t go wrong with Vonnegut

Feeling inspired after reading this one. A gift economy sounds like an ideal scenario and I’m hoping to start to put this into practice whenever I can.

Serviceberry by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Just finished this one and it was great. Labatut has a unique style, meshing nonfiction and fiction into a story that is fascinating. I have also read The Maniac and it is hard to choose a favorite between the two.

When We Cease to Understand the World - Benjamín Labatut

And here are a couple other books I have enjoyed lately

A New Race of Men From Heaven by Chaitali Sen

The Hole by Hiroko Oyomada

I have yet to read something from Kurt Vonnegut that I haven’t liked and A Man Without a Country is no different. One of the great authors and thinkers of our time

Finished Wind and Truth today as the finale of the first arc of the Stormlight Archive. I really have enjoyed this series so far and plan to dig more into Sanderson’s Cosmere in the future #booksky
