Linda-Marie Barrett / Executive Director:
Reading: Royal Liars by Lindsey Duga. I’m a bit lost, having not read the first book in this series, but I’m carrying on with hope. Just finished re-reading Slow Dance by Rainbow Rowell, which I loved, and about to start Autumn by Ali Smith, both for my book club.
Listening: To beautiful instrumental music and the quiet hum of my aromatherapy diffuser.
Watching: We’re moving between Nova Scotia (Sullivan’s Crossing, what a soap!), Texas (Young Sheldon, so good!), and England (Great British Bake Off, the best show ever!).We visited England again with The Thursday Murder Club movie, which had some wonderful poignant moments about growing older.

Nicki Leone / Communications:
Reading: My first shipment of books just arrived at my new home! AND, I finished unpacking the two boxes of books I had labelled "currently reading" because they had been stacked all around my couch and beside my bed. Despite diligently reading ebooks, I feel much more like myself with books on my bookshelves. Currently reading A Green Equinox by Elizabeth Mavor for book club. Mom has been reading The Wide Wide Sea by Hampton Sides and talking about it constantly over dinner, so I also feel like I have been reading that.
Listening: I have Arundhati Roy's Mother Mary Comes to Me on audio for listening to during housework.
Watching: The Yankees games never end. Last week I did watch Damn Yankees with SP, which was wonderful for Gwen Verdon and the choreography. Also oddly intense for a musical. And the folks, when they are not watching baseball, are somewhat addicted to British crime television shows, so we are in the middle of season six of Unforgotten, the cold case crime series. It originally starred Nicola Walker (who will always be "Ruth" from MI-5 to me) but the new season features Sinéad Keenan, who was one of my favorite actors in Being Human.

SP Rankin / Website Administrator:
Reading: Not much reading this week, as I (literally) picked an unfinished craft project back up. Obviously, that hasn't stopped me from adding more books to my wishlist, like Christiane Ritter's A Woman in the Polar Night, a reprint of her 1934 book and Anna Schectman's The Riddles of the Sphinx: Inheriting the Feminist History of the Crossword Puzzle, which had me at "A surprising and ambitious investigation of language and the varied ways women resist the paradoxes of patriarchy both on and off the page."
Listening: I cannot resist a good scammer podcast, and Unicorn Girl is most definitely a good scammer podcast. I can't narrow down a song of the week, but the album of the week is Euro-Country, from the Irish (but don't expect any tin whistles, pipes, or jigs) singer CMAT, aka Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson. If I had to choose one song, it would probably be "The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station."
Watching: Recent watches/rewatches have included Damn Yankees (Team Gwen Verdon for life), The Pajama Game (ditto for Team Carol Haney), Nashville, Grosse Pointe Blank, Velvet Goldmine, and Desert Hearts.

Andrea Richardson / Sales:
Reading: I am currently eyeballing my TBR trying to decide what's next! I am really ready for spooky season reading though.
Listening: When No One is Watching by Alyssa Cole. It's a perennial favorite of mine and it suited the vibes for my road trip last weekend.
Watching: Bring on the scary movies, it's Fall!
