Composting masterclass I think composting may be the new rock n roll.
I’m also still on with Alcohol explained and have just started listening to the institute again.
I’m looking for the invisible man on audio book but cant find it yet.

I completed Octavia Butler’s Xogenesis trilogy (Lilith, Adulthood Rites, and Imago). Good stuff. I completed Joe R Lansdale’s Paradise Sky - good. I am starting Butler’s Parable of the Sower. This has an introduction by N.K. Jemisin in which she says it took her 3 reads to ‘like’ the books. That has put me on my heels.

I’m listening to Jessica Simpson’s book at the moment called Open Book. It’s really good. She has over 6 years of sobriety now. She is really candid about so many things, not just drinking but also childhood abuse and pills. I was going to link an ET interview but it could be triggering for some.

Resurrecting an older thread 
Currently reading The Extraordinary Adventures of Sherlock Holmes , also reading The Unexpected Joy of The Ordinary.
I love physical books, the feel, the smell etc. Even just love being around books. Love those coffee shops immersed in book stores… Coffee/Tea, cake and books… Heaven!

I love physical books too. I’m currently reading Mediatations by Marcus Auerelius, The Enchanted Places by Christopher Milne and Big Sur by Jack Kerouac.
I also keep a book on e-book nearby and that is currently Judy Blume’s In The Unlikely Event.
Plus right now I have an audiobook of Co-Dependent No More by Melody Beattie on my phone. I can tell how scattered or steady I feel by how many I’m reading and how long it takes me. Its a scattered time over here. 
Reading is cool!

Bought this book today and like what I read so far. After obligations I’m trying to spend more time reading things that will benefit my life and recovery. Scrolling mindlessly through YouTube at night won’t help me with my goals and life but will only probably produce negative thoughts and wasted time. Never bought a self help book before but I also didn’t want change or help.
So now I own this book and the Alcoholics Anonymous big book. My library is officially growing!

@Raspberry that was a good book. Sad he is no longer with us. Addiction claimed another soul all too soon

Yes it’s sad he is gone. Feels a little weird to read the book knowing how it ended.

I’m currently reading (for pleasure) The Survivors by Caroline Mitchell, before I delve into some Barbara Kingsolver perhaps, or S.A. Crosby; epic American Southern Noir.
I’m working on all these books as well for my mental health and acuity:
