Chris is 59% done with The Book Club for Troublesome Women
Almost as appalling as the husbands' behavior is how willing the wives are to just forgive them!!!! Truly shocked and horrified

I have never related to anything as much as Fisher bitching about how hot it is in Zilvaren

In the audio book the narrator called the Saturn V the Saturn "vee" 🤮🤮🤮

Trigger warning for my fellow space girlies

Chris
Chris is 10% done with Immaculate Conception
I think this might be a little too weird (for lack of a better word) for me? Maybe I'll come back to it when I'm more ready to embrace something different

Chris is 51% done with Wind and Truth (The Stormlight Archive, #5)
This is a big ass book and its taking me a while.

Also the amount that I can't remember/missed in the previous books is crazy! I need a 2 day lecture to get all of the mythology correct.

Chris is 63% done with Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things
"It's more important to be good ancestors than dutiful descendants" I love this line!

So much good info about how we pull ourselves up by our boot straps by pulling up others

Chris is 65% done with Elantris (Elantris, #1)
Kyle absolutely blew my mind by informing me that the female lead's name is spelled Sarene (I thought it was Cerini). The fun of an audiobook ;)

Chris is 21% done with How Not to Die: Discover the Foods Scientifically Proven to Prevent and Reverse Disease
Dr Greger: one of the keys to avoiding acid reflux and therefore preventing esophageal cancer is to avoid the consumption of meat.
Me, a 20 yr vegetarian with GERD: cool.

Chris is on page 294 of 688 of Tower of Dawn (Throne of Glass, #6)
Switching over from kindle to the audio book going forward as I'm way behind on knitting and need to multitask while I continue slogging through this book.

I'm coming to find that I only really liked Aelin, Rowan, and Aedion and miss them. Yrene is cool but I have some serious (and at this point self induced) annoyance with Chaol

Chris
Chris is 35% done with Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don't Know
I really enjoyed the chapter on constructive conflict! I like the concept of a "good fight club" and the general concept of task conflict and it's benefit to productivity

Chris is starting Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void
Enough junk food, time for something at least a little nutritious.

Chris is starting The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1)
Probably time to read something nutritional soon but my library loan on this is about to expire

Chris is on page 382 of 705 of A Court of Wings and Ruin (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #3)
This author is obsessed with the word limn. At least twice every book she describes "[emotion] limning [character's] face"
