Linda-Marie Barrett / Executive Director:
Reading: How to Fake a Southern Gentleman by Mayra Cuevas and Marie Marquardt, a romcom based in Atlanta and set against a backdrop of racism, classism, and misogyny. I’m pretty sure that things will not go well for the villainous Griggs Caldecott Johnson III.
Listening: The birds and insects outside my office window continue their singing and humming as we move into another season. Except for the occasional roar of lawn maintenance equipment at nearby properties, it’s very quiet in the neighborhood.
Watching: I’m still binging Sullivan’s Crossing and enjoying the newest episodes of the Great British Baking Show on Fridays.

Nicki Leone / Communications:
Reading: A Green Equinox by Elizabeth Mavor. The Life of Violet: Three Early Stories by Virginia Woolf.
Listening: The audiobook version of Penelope's Bones: A New History of Homer's World Through the Women Written Out of It by Emily Hauser.
Watching: I finally saw Rashomon, a movie I have heard referenced many many times but had never actually seen. I watched it Sunday night with SP, and here it is Thursday and I'm still thinking about it.

SP Rankin / Website Administrator:
Reading: The three newly published stories of Virginia Woolf collected in The Life of Violet. The adventures of a giant named Violet, the stories are fantastic and playfully subversive and more in the vein of Orlando than To the Lighthouse.
Listening: The song of the week is Ella Fitzgerald's cover of the standard "I Wished on the Moon," either the swinging one or the slow one, but probably the slow one. It's like sweater weather in a song.
Watching: Nicki and I watched Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon (1950) for movie night(one of his many masterpieces), in case you're wondering what either one of us will be talking about for the next month or seven.

Andrea Richardson / Sales:
Reading: I just found out that the second installment in S.A. Cosby & Questlove's Middle Grade time travel universe is FINALLY coming out next year, so I am devouring that. Then it's back to all of the scary books I can get my hands on.
Listening: If It Makes You Happy by Julie Olivia - it's an adorable 90's cozy fall romance with a nice slow burn.
Watching: Honestly, I'm just counting down the days until the new fall shows hit in the next week or so. Plus Only Murders in the Building, of course.
