WHAT have you finished reading recently? For “real” reading, I just finished Star Trek: The Higher Frontier, a TOS-MOVIE era novel. I also read three books in the Marvin Redpost series for Blast from the Past.
WHAT are you reading now? Halfway through Family Unfriendly, which examines different aspects of American life that are inimical to families (including social media abuse and suburban sprawl). Also finishing the Marvin Redpost books (they’re super easy, barely an inconvenience).
WHAT are you reading next? More Sachar — I appaarently didn’t spotlight Wayside School last year, so I’ll be re-reading a couple of its books. More seriously, there’s The Anxious Generation, which I need to commit to and finish.
I just listened to a podcast episode about The Anxious Generation and will be curious to hear your thoughts on it!
Haidt’s books have been some of my favorites in recent years, especially Righteous Mind. This was a rare preorder for me. Which podcast, if you don’t mind sharing?
They’re pretty critical of every book they read so fair warning it’s not the most positive take. The podcast is called If Books Could Kill.
Thanks!
Fly that Sideways School flag proudly!
Among other books, I just finished Signé Picpus (Maigret #23) by Georges Simenon.
Am currently listening to A Kiss Before Dying, by Ira Levin – FA-BU-LOUS.
Next book possibly The Fifth Tumbler, by Clyde B. Clason.
These are all classic mysteries
