I'm on book #53 for the year. This ravenous consumption of novels reminds me of being ten, twelve years old. When I knew I had to read everything because I would never have enough time for all the live I ought to live, that my body was a betrayal, that there were so many things I didn't know.

If you've read anything really good recently, I'd love to know. I like good novels and niche histories and biographies.

Fell deeply in love with "Buddha in the Attic" by Julie Otsuka.

Couldn't finish "Ghostwritten" by David Mitchell.

Re-read and re-shivered through "Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood.

Working through "The Blind Assassin" by Atwood as well.

Also reading "Non-violent Communication" by Marshall Rosenberg and it is blowing my mind. Nonviolently, somehow.
