Self-indulgent blog

What's new with me? Turns out, a lot.

What I’m Reading


I love to read. I’m drawn to fiction, especially mystery stories and historical fiction (but not bodice-rippers). I also really like interesting biographies and autobiographies. Lately I’ve enjoyed some essay collections, especially Ursula K. Le Guin’s The Wave in the Mind. So brilliant!

Since I started grad school in August 2016, I have to cram my pleasure reading into summer and winter breaks. I spend the whole school year collecting book titles that I just know I’ll get to when the semester ends…if only I could inject these books into my brain! There’s never enough time to get to them all. But I keep trying. And I’ll keep telling you about it.
