Wait a minute—is May over? I’m pretty sure I was cheated out of a week. Or maybe it’s just that the bad news is coming at a faster pace, whether it’s the increasing attack on women’s rights or the unrelenting uptick in gun violence. I veer between apathy and a rage that wants to know: why doesn’t the government apply the same attention and rigor to young men buying guns as they ... Read More...
April Reading Recap
April, where have you gone? Actually, the month wasn’t the problem is was the last week when the universe decided to shift from neutral to overdrive in my world. A quick update because it does impact the blog. Our move to Ann Arbor was supposed to be for 5 years, but like anything else in the corporate arena, anything can change at any time.

Out of the 11 books I read all but two were ... Read More...
January Reading Wrap-Up
What to say about January? A month that went so fast, but didn’t seem to move at all. With subzero temperatures and a broken supply chain that left Costco with no Diet Coke (I can go without my meds, but no Diet Coke is a bridge too far). Those are the lows, but the important news is that January was an outstanding month for reading. Of the 14 books I read 9 were 4 stars or ... Read More...
