pickWhat a powerful read!
This memoir is about experiencing trauma, unlearning it, and breaking cycles. It is extremely personal and heartfelt. I loved how the author portrayed trauma as complex, which it is.

"The rhetoric of protest unsupported by the means of enforcement amounted to little more than bombast."

Reading very much like a work of Fiction, this brutal account of the Clutter Murders is bone chilling.
Not only is Capote a masterful writer, but his dedication to obtaining all the information needed for this recounting amazes me - especially taking into account the when. No quick Google searches to check facts, or see photos of places. Just feet on the ground investigation.
What I do everyday shapes who I am,
not just in the moment,
but in the person I am becoming.
Guiding my days with confidence & love 💛

How to identify better judges:
"Three things matter. Judgements are both less noisy and less biased when those who make them are well trained, are more intelligent, and have the right cognitive style....good judgements depend on what you know, how well you think, and how you think. Good judges tend to be experienced and smart, but they also tend to be actively open-minded & willing to learn from new information."

pickA really practical starting point if your company is using EOS. If not then it makes a really good case for why businesses should be using EOS. I enjoyed the main points not getting bogged down in jargon. Not a long read and sets you up well for the next phase.

pickI really enjoy the way Lucy Knisley's nonfiction comics are told. Her work is reflective and engaging. This book in particular is captivating as she reflects on different aspects of her life to pinpoint where her love of culinary experiences came from. I love the illustrated recipes throughout too and now really wish she had a graphic novel cookbook out. #comics #nonfiction #food
pick🌀 this book opened doors that I‘m still learning how to walk-through. & for that, I know I‘ll be returning to it‘s pages later on in life. I feel it reaching toward me, but there are pieces I know I‘ll understand more deeply with time and experience. #nonfiction #audiobook #feminism #naturalitsy #reading #booklover #bibliophile #uncommon
pickThis is a fun, short listen for someone who finds microbes fascinating! I had hoped there would be more about the human microbiome, but it‘s about all different kinds of microbes in the world around us. I would also be interested to see the illustrations that go with this #nonfiction book for middle grade readers.
