I read Genesis earlier this week along with St Augustine's Confessions. Also, im going to reread keats' Hyperion poem that he never finished. I really want to read Paradise lost by Milton. I have a great edition of it with foot notes and everything. I would help me write the book im dabbing in right now.
Thanks for this!

I've been making a mental collection of books about writing that I want to buy/borrow from the library (once they open again). The last one I read was Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg.

Susie King Taylor: Reminiscences of My Life in Camp. It is a memoir of an African American woman who lived through the civil war.

I want to borrow some short story collections by Alice Munro once the libraries in my town open again. They don't have them available for digital download. I'm wanting to read widely in the genre I want to write in so I'll be checking out the library's available short story collections for digital download to my kindle.

I'm going through From Surviving to Thriving by Pete Walker again.

Women's Wisdom: The Garden of Peace for Women by Rabbi Shalom Arush.
Thanks for this!

Rereading Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series by Douglas Adams. It's an exceptional read. Adams was a brilliant writer.

Yes, I like Russell in general. I like his treatment of basically everything. I can't get a super great read on what philosophy he himself espouses through this book. I guess it fulfills its purpose of being a history, then. I think I have studied Russell before in some classes I took, but I can't remember what his philosophy is like...

I am reading "The Nightengale" a novel by NYT best selling writer Kristen Hannah. Setting is WW2 France occupied by Germans. Plot is two sisters fight for survival and finding love during those turbulent times. Does this sound like a blurb? Anyhoo really enjoying the book, BTW Wasting Asparagus. I read B.Russell's History of Philosophy. A very informative, interesting read.
Thanks for this!
