My Mayne interest has dropped off a cliff which is probably good because of how much I was reading. Pretty sure the diver is my least favorite series now.

Reading descriptions of how awesome she is with some details about how she dives and does it awesomely is getting tiresome. Have to remind myself there’s a mystery that will return after she finishes tooting her own horn.

Preliminarily I’m back to Mayne after a brief pause and somehow it seems a bit clunkier. I’m not sure if it’s really different or whether it just suffers by contrast with Tchaikovsky. Probably underwater isn’t my favorite of his.

Pretty sure I’m going to read all of his stuff at some point though.

Daniel Wood is starting The Wolf and the Watchman
Forgot about this. I guess I was a quarter of the way through when I decided it was just gross and tedious. Such a disappointment will not finish.

Yeah I’m gonna quit this one. I haven’t actually finished weapons of math destruction yet so this one is a no go. Not sure where I found the recommendation anyway.

Not auspicious I’m not sure I’ll be able to continue. It’s preaching to the choir and a small insular one at that.

Pretty nice. Mostly the same stuff but my theory is about hearing it different ways until clicks.

Wow this was not a good choice for a Mexico City book. Well actually defend Aztec themes but juiced pretty hard.

In light of my current travels I’ve decided to stop reading Roman & Viking historically themed junk and start reading some Mexico-themed historical junk.

Daniel Wood is on page 50 of 240 of The River That Made Seattle: A Human and Natural History of the Duwamish
An actual book made out of atoms and not just pixels. And it’s not a trashy thriller 🤔

My poor brain hurts so many names… but at least they’re already places I know: Leschi, Seattle, Kitsap, etc

But seriously it should be good. I’ve kayaked on the Duwamish and eager to learn more of the history.

Can’t take much more of this crap. A lot of skimming to get to the end of the saga of perfect joe and skinny faith

Moving this to unlikely to finish. Can’t take this series any more. Boring and sordid

Really don’t think I’m going to finish this series. Too bloody and dark and kind of repetitive now but for now momentum drags me on. Caro’s Johnson will have to wait.
