@bookstodon Just out of curiosity, how close are you to your reading goal for the year? I need to read 12 more books to meet the goal I set for myself. 📚📚📚📚
Not everyone works the same way, of course. We've discussed before that reading goals are counterproductive for many. Having a goal really helps me, but it doesn't work for everyone. Just like reading for pleasure and reading to write a review are very different processes.
@kimlockhartga@bookstodon According to Goodreads: 46 books completed You’re on track! I read a lot during the first half of the year, especially while I was on my #roadtrip. However, #kdrama took up my life and attention for the second half of the year so reading slowed down. I like the idea of finishing a book a week, more or less. #audiobooks make that possible most of the time, except when I get caught up in a lengthy book, something I've been doing recently. Goals are good.
Filled with greed and love and the meaning of religion and tradition until the walls of the RV and the feds start closing in on the family, this thrilling literary tale mixes Michael Chabon and the Coen Brothers with equal parts humor and pathos. Buckle up !
Out of all the great punny restaurants in India, Burger Singh is probably my favorite. I wonder if his moustache looks like a crown.
A few years ago, Delhi had a coffee chain called "Sardarbaksh" with a logo suspiciously similar to a certain Seattle-based coffee empire. They were sued and changed their name to "Sardar-ji Baksh." I think they closed in the Pandemic.

Braiding Sweetgrass is like that for me because I very rarely read non-fiction. It's excellent but the writer narrates and it sounds like a bedtime story to me. I'll probably read a few chapters every year during a #roadtrip.
I really wanted host this in the fediverse.
I struggled through the signup process.
Not able to make it public so was finally forced to put it on youtube.
