Lora is 12% done with Twilight of Democracy: The Seductive Lure of Authoritarianism

it’s always good to read things by people outside your own bubble but hearing the Thatcher/Reagan era described as the halcyon days of democracy and tolerance from the right is one hell of a trip

Lora is 14% done with Policing Black Lives: State Violence in Canada from Slavery to the Present

I was waiting for my hometown area to be name-checked and there it is (I remember being 15 and doing a history project and finding a quote from Frederick Douglass specifically naming the teeny village I lived near as horrifically racist)

Lora is finished with I Am the Messenger

I didn't like the twist/reveal, which I've noticed is a pattern with me. It undermined everything, yet again.

Lora is 85% done with Austenland (Austenland, #1)

I'm not sure "a pathological inability to make up one's mind" counts as character growth here.

..... Jennifer Ehle. "That comely, busty British actress" is Jennifer Ehle. Why name-check Colin Firth but not her?!

Lora is finished with unChristian: What a New Generation Really Thinks about Christianity... and Why It Matters

Fantastic. I will never agree that homosexuality is immoral -- or that, even if it were a sin, that it belongs in a list next to alcoholism & sexual abuse -- but otherwise this is spot-on.

Lora is on page 121 of 255 of unChristian: What a New Generation Really Thinks about Christianity... and Why It Matters

Glad the homosexuality chapter is done. Kinnaman's words were about as good as I could've expected, but the others he quoted, auuuugh.
