Having read this so shortly after Our Kids: The America Dream in Crisis was a #Powerful combination. If you aren't screwed by the opportunity gap in childhood, you're pretty likely to be screwed by the bottom-line mentality of the corporate world.

Staying in an Air B&B in my hometown to visit friends and family, and just needed a moment for myself. 😮‍💨😌

Next up is nonfiction. I‘ve been a stay-at-home mom for a long time now and I need all the help I can get to rejoin the workforce 😮‍💨

I normally don‘t post non-book related stuff, but I am so excited that I had to share: I accepted a job offer today! My current place of work has been incredibly toxic, and I am so happy to get out. The only downside is I have to move my library to the living room b/c the job is remote and I will be putting my desk here. Now for the challenge of culling my books and moving all of this.

Caterina Congratulations! 🎉 And good luck with the book moving! I hope you don't have to cull too many, you have such a lovely collection 😍 1y
Aims42 Congrats on the new job, nothing more exciting than leaving a toxic environment 🥳🤩🎉 1y

Kristy_K @Caterina Thank you! And I hope I don‘t have to either! I‘m hopeful most will still fit. 1y
Kristy_K @Aims42 Agreed! It felt like a weight lifted from my shoulders when I signed the offer. 1y
Kristy_K @TEArificbooks haha! So true. I‘ll have to think about that. 1y
Kristy_K @dabbe Thank you! And I wish I could! I debated even putting my desk in my room just so I could keep my library here, but I know the cramped space would bother me. 1y
julesG A small/minimalist desk solution in front of the shelves is not an option? 1y
Kristy_K @julesG They‘re giving me two monitors, a laptop, and a docking station so I think it‘ll need a larger desk, but I‘ll look into the size required! 1y
julesG Could work on a small-ish desk. My son's desk is small, I'd say 32 inch by 20 inch and he has two monitors and a laptop, plus mouse and additional gaming keypad. It's crammed, but he refused getting a larger desk. I'd give it a try before moving the library. Maybe check Pinterest for WFH desk ideas? 1y
TheLudicReader Congrats on the new job. I would totally explore other desk options before moving all those books, though. 😂 1y
bthegood Congrats🥳 1y
MaureenMc Congratulations! 🎉 1y
DaveGreen7777 Congratulations on the new job! 🙌 1y
Kristy_K @TheLudicReader Thank you! Yes, it‘s looking to be quite the task to move them. @bthegood @DaveGreen7777 Thank you!! 1y

If you‘re considering a change in careers this is the book for you.

Mehso-so

I was expecting a more robust examination of the downsizing of the professional class. It was more of a first-person account, light on research and heavy on anecdote. I won‘t pan it outright because the writing is good, just not what I expected.

Not book related per se, but I'm really, really excited to finally leave the finance industry.

Pretty sure there's a bookstore trip happening tomorrow to celebrate. 🤓
