August's review
of
Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection:
"This was so deeply up my alley it’s hardly even funny. It was a fascinating book about TB and the social determinants of health that drive it in the current age. Green made it engaging and I learned a ton. "

| This was a delight! A woman that runs a cat shelter in 1920s Montreal accidently moves her business on top of a secret wizard's shop. Many cats and wizard battles follow. I will say, as a reading experience this was top tier as I often read it while ...more | |

“Strangling is perfectly natural—no need to be ashamed. I did it to my Barbie Dolls and everything.” Sarah rolled her eyes. “They really do send them up crazier each year.”

“Lord, I confess I want the clarity of
catastrophe but not the catastrophe.
Like everyone else, I want a storm I can
dance in.
I want an excuse to change my life.”

“People ask me, “Have you tried yoga? Kombucha? This special water?” And I don’t have the energy to explain that yes, I’ve tried them. I’ve tried crystals and healing drum circles and prayer and everything. What I want to try is acceptance. I want to see what happens if I can simply accept myself for who I am: battered, broken, hoping for relief, still enduring somehow. I will still take a cure if it’s presented to me, but I am so tired of trying to bargain with the universe for some kind of cure. The price is simply too high to live chasing cures, because in doing so, I’m missing living my life. I know only that in chasing to achieve the person I once was, I will miss the person I have become.”

“To oppose something is to maintain it.
They say here "all roads lead to Mishnory." To be sure, if you turn your back on Mishnory and walk away from it, you are still on the Mishnory road. To oppose vulgarity is inevitably to be vulgar. You must go somewhere else; you must have another goal; then you walk in a different road.”
