Reading

These are the books I am actively reading.

The Three-Body Problem, Liu CixinThe Long Fall, Walter MosleyHamlet, William Shakespeare, but just barely—my eyes were so tired I had to put it down before finishing the first page.How the Word Is Passed: A Reckoning with the History of Slavery Across America, Clint SmithLess actively reading

I’m always “reading” a dozen books, some of which I haven’t actually touched in months. These I’ve at least opened at some point in the last month or are collections that I’m working through slowly.

English Magic, Uschi GatwardComplete Short Stories, Graham GreeneThe Stinging Fly, Issue 46, Volume TwoRecently finished

Still super close on How the Word Is Passed.

Chuck mentioned Jaimee Finney’s 12 ways to be better to work with in his weekly note a couple weeks ago and I decided to grab a copy. It was a nice read over breakfast and I enjoyed the tips, especially “silence will hurt you” and “follow up and follow-up”.
