My Literature Challenge- Summer 2026:
- How To Read A Book by Mortimer Adler and Charles Van Doren
- Confessions by Augustine
- The Iliad by Homer
- Things in Nature Merely Grow by Yiyun Li
Reading: Suddenly got a kick to continue/finish How To Do Nothing by Jenny Odell - taking notes here.
Also started Dear Friend, from My Life I Write to You in Your Life by Yiyun Li AND Air-Conditioned Nation Revisited by Cherian George. Got distracted though. But it's good so far. Have an Annie Dillard Reader on the backburner too. Books courtesy of the casual poet library.
Music: via RadioApp - discovered Vermont Public Radio Classical (VPR Classical 90) for excellent classical music and KCMP's The Current for some bangaz.
Shows/Videos/Movies: Still enjoying The Mentalist as my comfort TV show.
Movement: In recovery from surgery. Just focusing on getting my steps up again and... sleeping regularly. Ugh!
Food: Currently enjoying recipes from Japanese Comfort Food by Saori Ichihara.
