I’m reading this about trauma and PTSD. It’s slow going because it hits so close to home, but it’s really helping me understand myself, my history, and is creating so much compassion and understanding for others. I highly recommend to those that have an interest in the subject.

Just started reading PKD’s “Humpty Dumpty In Oakland”. Before that, “No Middle Name”, by Lee Child. It’s a compilation of short stories from the Jack Reacher universe. Cool part was, two of the stories, Reacher only plays a minor role at the end.
I am re-reading Musashi’s Dokkodo

Christmas mysteries. Cozy reads. Keeping it simple.

What I am currently reading -
Antony Bourdain, “A Cook’s Tour”.
Loved “Kitchen Confidential”, which I read a few years ago. Heck, just love Bourdain in general, may he rest in peace. This one is good so far.
What’s on deck -
Dr Martin Seligman, “Learned Optimism”.
What I hope to do is in the title
And yes, I do use the cutout side of an old toothpaste box as my bookmark. Had it for years.
The Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions. Currently working on Tradition 1 with the accompanying workbook. The Traditions are the glue that holds AA together.
If you aren’t familiar with them, they include their recovery stories (alcohol, meth, eating disorders, family tragedy… you know. Something for everyone to relate to)
“Into the wild” is my favourite movie
Probably the most important book I’ve ever read! It changed my life. So grateful for this book! Enjoy Fran
