Trying to keep up with my weekly neewspaper reading. Whenever I am up to date, a special edition comes out and gets me off course. The last one was a best literature of 2024 edition. Of course I had to read it more closely. 🙈🙈🙈

This series about Tara who is stuck in 18 November is some of the best books I‘ve read in at long time. #danishbooks
Right in the feels! Admirably spare in text and imagery. It takes so little to conjure up the shared human experience, holding two truths in mind: We don't know how long we've got; we can treasure the moments spent together now.
No big revelations here, feels patchworky. Capitalism & wage labor. Productivity, time management, task-oriented vs. schedule-oriented work, efficiency, nature, planetary time. Leisure, rest. Fungible time. Divisible time. Time & attention. The self-timers & the timed. Biggest question: is reading this a good use of time? 2023

A wonderful blend of history, culture and travel in Japan.

Carlo Rovelli is quickly becoming one of my favorite writers. He has a knack for explaining complex quantum physics with ease, but he‘s also poetic and philosophical about life. His prose is beautiful and a joy to read! 5-star book! ⭐️
My treat to myself when I took my mother in law and kids to the mall today… I was able to sneak away and peruse B&N 😊
Got together with friends yesterday and received the best belated birthday present- a clock that has a quote from a book for each minute of the day. Love it so much!
Reading Ben H. Winters new novel while making grits for breakfast. Have loved Ben H. Winters ever since reading The Last Policeman trilogy.
I'm bailing on the book not because I don't like it but I'm not in the mood for it. Will.pick up again later.
Poor Allie is kidnapped from a playground, leaving her child in the sandbox. Soon after, Grace, who works at a mid level job at the FDA, comes across a photo of Allie in a hospital bed with some sort of odd port inserted in her body. That starts this mystery of who exactly is Allie and how did this port come to be embedded in her body. I found this to be a far fetched story about harvesting time from unsuspecting patients.
