Library audio app, 28% in and 16 days to go.

Honestly something we should have been taught at school. Perhaps something everyone should be taught at school.

Knock, Murderer, Knock! by Harriet Rutland, a little-known crime writer of the late 30s/early 40s, who wrote three well-received novels before divorcing her husband and moving to Devon, whereupon she wrote no more. Knock, Murderer, Knock! is reminiscent of Agatha Christie, if AC had been on the sweet sherry for 48 hours before sitting down to type. Having a good time with it, needless to say.

Sociopath: A Memoir by Patric Gagne

A fellow social worker I knew from grad school shared this book on her Instagram story and recommended it. I was on a hold list for the ebook at my local library for weeks, but now, I have it. I’m also listening to the read by the author.

"To die just as required, without excess.
To grow back just what's needed from what's left.

We, too, can divide ourselves, it's true.
But only into flesh and a broken whisper.
Into flesh and poetry."

~ Autotomy, by Wislawa Szymborska

Spending my morning with adrienne maree brown. #CurrentlyReading Fables and Spells: Collected and New Short Fiction and Poetry

I love brown's writing. It reminds me of movement. Twirling with emotions- fear, happiness, love...

Anyway- I highly recommend.

We will make mistakes. We will forget that we belong to one another, and then we will remember again, make amends, and move forward. This is all part of the process.

When you're on the last few pages of your book and you waffle between wanting to finish and wanting it to last forever.
