Epic! I read this with a book club, and I’m very glad this was the club’s pick because I’m not sure I would have read it otherwise. Moby Dick was very different than what I expected, more enjoyable and more relevant than my expectations.

Finished reading: Neuromancer by William Gibson đź“š
The cyberpunk classic. I’ve read it before but it’s been a long time and I had forgotten the plot. It’s such a great book and incredible that it defined a genre.

Finished reading: Sky Daddy by Kate Folk đź“š
This book is funny and wild! It starts with an epigraph to Moby Dick, which is fitting since I’ve been reading that with my book club.
Was not expecting to find some hope and inspiration on the topics of climate change and politics from Al Gore on the Zero podcast:
