Book Nook

You've wandered into my cozy book nook. Grab a warm cup of your favourite tea, a nice warm blanket, and come read with me. This is a mostly up-to-date list of what I'm reading, what I want to read, and what I have read since starting this garden.

"I read my books with diligence, and mounting skill, and gathering certainty. I read the way a person might swim, to save his or her life." Mary Oliver, in her essay “Staying Alive,” found in Upstream.
