Linda-Marie Barrett / Executive Director
Reading: The Wedding People by Alison Espach, a SIBA Read This Next! choice, and well-deserved. It's funny and very moving, prompting thoughts about how we make decisions, the importance of paying attention, and embracing life, even when it's really hard.
Listening: After a month of extreme heat and no rain, we're now experiencing daily rainfall, which is very peaceful background sound.
Watching: A bit of this and that, but settled on The Mallorca Files as our next "Death in Paradise" kind of evening viewing.

Candice Huber / Membership:
Reading: I honestly haven't had much time to read lately, so I'm still on the same stuff - The Examiner and The Nightmare Before Kissmas. I'm hoping to finish both before NVNR though, especially since Sara Raasch will be at the conference!
Listening: My Spotify DJ has been really on point lately! Listening to a mix of 90s nostalgia and today's music. I particularly love pop rock (think Queen, Jukebox the Ghost, etc.).
Watching: Binged through the newest season of The Boys, and hooboy, that show, although satire, is tough to watch at this particular moment! The finale has me hanging by a thread.

Nicki Leone / Communications:
Reading: See last week, And the week before that. On an upwards note, however, my "Prime Day" rebel binge order at my local store's Bookshop site came today, so I now have the German-English Genealogical Dictionary by Ernest Thode to look forward to when I again have a moment to read something other than registration reports. Woo hoo. Party on.
Listening: Mostly, power tools. I think my neighbor behind me is building a bunker for the end times.
Watching: Movie night with SP this week was Showing Up with Michelle Williams and about a dozen other people I vaguely recognized. It was really lovely. I have a thing for movies about artists and creators and felt like I knew or had met every person in this movie at some point.

SP Rankin / Website Administrator:
Reading: Theoretically, I'm all for it.
Listening: Joni Mitchell / Court and Spark. No notes.
Watching: Showing Up, directed by Kelly Reichardt. A quietly perfect movie which will make you wonder whether anything will ever happen until you suddenly realize everything is happening.

Andrea Richardson / Sales:
Reading: Compound Fracture by Andrew Joseph White - to prepare for the amazing horror panel I get to moderate at NVNR soon!
Listening: I can't stop listening to Handsome. I really want to be friends with Fortune, Mae, and Tig.
Watching: We're still watching re-runs of Newhart at my house, made all the more poignant with Bob Newhart's recent passing. That man was a comedic genius.
