What We're Reading/Listening to/Watching

Posted By Nicki Leone, Thursday, October 3, 2024

Linda-Marie BarrettLinda-Marie Barrett / Executive Director:
Reading
: In a stroke of incredible timing, just read The Art Thieves by Andrea L. Rogers, a novel of Cherokee futurism set in the near future when the effects of climate change, pandemics, and international sabotage turn the world upside down. Just started The Sentence by Louise Erdrich and it is delightful.
Listening
: To the sounds of Red Cross, military, and medical helicopters crossing the sky above my home rescuing folks and bringing supplies, and to the heart-lifting conversations of neighbors sharing resources and emotional support.
Watching: A community coming together during the most difficult of times.

Candice HuberCandice Huber / Membership:
Reading: Bored Gay Werewolf by Tony Santorella. So far, it's entertaining!
Listening
: The sounds of squirrels scrambling up trees and birds flitting through the bushes.
Watching
: I love silly, completely unrealistic action movies and have never seen The Fast and the Furious franchise, so I've started watching those, and they do not disappoint!

Nicki LeoneNicki Leone / Communications:
Reading: I finished Summer Will Show by Sylvia Townsend Warner while Helene was raging through the Carolinas. Amazingly, not by candlelight. Yalo by Elias Khoury is still an ongoing project.
Listening: For most of the week, the sound of hammers, because we had the roofers on site to replace the entire roof. So hammers, and also the dog, who was dedicated to warning me every time one of them walked by a window.
Watching
: Reruns of House, MD.

SP RankinSP Rankin / Website Administrator:
Reading: A difficult reading week, again, as I imagine it was for a lot of people. But Enlightenment (Sarah Parry) still awaits.
Listening: 
Tami Neilson's latest Neilson Sings Nelson, and Willie's Willie Nelson Sings Kristofferson from a long time ago. Not recommended unless you feel like crying. Which you probably do.
Watching: A Room with a View. Merchant Ivory plus Forster at their dreamiest. Plus Maggie Smith's tart, tragicomic, brilliant turn as Miss Bartlett.

Andri RichardsonAndrea Richardson / Sales:
Reading: I have approximately 40 books downloaded for my upcoming vacation, and I have no idea where to start.
Listening
: A friend of mine just guested on an episode of Bash Pinball podcast and that was a fun listen.
Watching
: There's a new season of The Circle out on Netflix, so I'm waiting with bated breath for each Wednesday release of episodes.
