I am reading The House at Sea’s End by Elly Griffiths. A Ruth Galloway mystery. It was supposed to be a quick read, but got busy with some stuff, so going slowly.

What about all of you? What are you reading, or listening these days?

Note: So, I posted this last week, but for some issue with federation it didn't actually sync. So, this will be another one and half week post.

I'm slow-reading a book about meditation ("Seeing That Frees" by Rob Burbea) -- it's not really one to just "get through". And reading Godel Escher Bach by Douglas Hofstatder, but it's not exactly light reading so that's taking a while too. This weekend I was at a bookshop and was compelled to get a quickie just so I could feel some reading-dopamine, and so far it's been great.. In fact I'm already almost done with:

Ubik, by Philip K Dick

reading-dopamine are nice, but slow-read book that are helpful to you are also important. So take your time and enjoy.
