Linda-Marie Barrett / Executive Director:
Reading: The Only Purple House in Town by Ann Aguire, a gentle, magical read about chosen family and discovering our hidden gifts, and Of Women and Salt by Gabriela Garcia, for my book club.
Listening: To instrumental stations on Pandora or Calm when working, though always preferring the quieter sounds of birdsong, box turtles rustling among leaves, and squirrels chattering in the trees.
Watching: Started Kaos, which brings back memories of reading D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths, and continuing on with new episodes of Under the Vines and My Life is Murder, both set in New Zealand.

Candice Huber / Membership:
Reading: Back to finishing up Nightmare Before Kissmas, which is so fun!
Listening: On the road trip, I started listening to the dramatized version of Fourth Wing on audiobook (I haven't read it before this), and it's so cool!
Watching: Not much, but trying to keep up with Big Brother.

Nicki Leone / Communications:
Reading: Almost done with Villa E, and have picked up Ex-Wife by Ursula Parrott for book club. Next on the list is The Volcano Daughters, and something-- not yet sure what -- by Barbara Comyns. Maybe The Juniper Tree.
Listening: Miles Davis, Sketches of Spain.
Watching: Reruns of a childhood favorite show about firefighters, Emergency! As a kid, I liked all the different fire trucks. But as an adult, I am riveted by the fashion sense of the early 70s. I am convinced Dr. Brackett buys his clothes at a wallpaper store.

SP Rankin / Website Administrator:
Reading: Currently reading the splendid Summer Will Show, by Sylvia Townsend Warner, a tale of an Englishwoman in Paris suddenly caught up in revolution--both personal and political. Fierce, funny, and bracing. A Place of Our Own: Six Spaces That Shaped Queer Women's Culture by June Thomas: a survey of the challenges and evolution of spaces from bars to softball teams to feminist/queer bookstores, including SIBA's own Charis Books and More!
Listening: Every Time I Think About You, my longtime favorites The Cactus Blossoms' brand new album. They've been releasing singles from it over the last few months and it's a total joy to listen to the whole thing.
Watching: The Divorcee, the 1930 pre-Code adaptation of Ursula Parrott's 1929 novel, Ex-Wife. The plot was condensed, all the characters renamed, the scandals somewhat tamed and I still didn't like the ending!

Andrea Richardson / Sales:
Reading: It's officially time for Spooky Season Reading for me so I am juggling a few horror books right now.
Listening: The jackhammering of work being done outside while I try to get work done today.
Watching: Only Murders in the Building is back and as good as ever!
