Teenagers are allowed to be dumb, i just… could use a break where i read a book but don’t have to yell about how dumb people are.
ansate finished reading Lying for Money by Dan Davies
It was good! I can’t swear I followed everything, but it was a good read and i feel like i did something useful considering I’m joining a team that covers fraud tomorrow.

I’m reading at more than a grudging chapter per day, amazing for me and nonfiction

It was sooooooo good.
It’s funny because on one level it’s an odd couple/ road trip movie, but that’s for sure not the only level.

We’re almost done! And I don’t want to be almost done! And there’s a sad bit and I don’t like it, it made me sad. I think we’re just reading the Dispossessed next , because i am not good at letting go.

We had a great book club meeting about this! All of us who were not already invested in the series are up for at least book 2. Talking it over made me feel better about my quibbles, and i am excited to read more.
Bonus question: the author is well known for her romances. Does anyone know what’s a good one of those to start with?

ansate finished reading You Look Like a Thing and I Love You by Janelle Shane
A perfect pairing with spending the week on the fast.ai deep learning course.
ansate commented on Flame of Sevenwaters by Juliet Marillier
Flame of Sevenwaters (2012)
These are a little cheesy and a lot romancey and generally just a little longer than I really have patience for. BUT they reliably get me engrossed and make me cry about their very romancey struggles. It’s been a good adventure.
ansate started reading Péchés mortels by Donna Leon
Uhhhh I couldn’t find the English language version: Quietly in Their Sleep. But that’s what I’m reading
