I just started watching Call the Midwife this past year and love it, so I put the first book on my TBR. I finally made time to listen this weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. It‘s such a fascinating, sometimes heartbreaking, but mostly hopeful perspective on a part of history I knew almost nothing about.

Daisey @TheBookHippie I am enjoying it so much! At some point, I‘m going to have to look up a copy of the cookbook you‘re going through as well. 2d
TheBookHippie @Daisey so many yummy recipes!!! 2d

“human mating behavior delights & amuses us
& galvanizes our gossip, but it is also deeply disturbing.”

What 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.

In Cold Blood | Truman Capote

4½ ✨

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.

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 1w

Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment | Daniel Kahneman, Cass R Sunstein, Olivier Sibony

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."
