#AuldLangSpine2026 list from @JamieArc 💗

I love it! There are at least 3 books on here that I have read and loved which just tells me that @monalyisha nailed it yet again. I‘m so intrigued by the title of the tagged book. It might be one I read for January! 🎉

Karisa A little about me: I‘m a 6th grade art and history teacher. I have a bunch of pets (3 cats, a dog, 2 classroom guinea pigs) and two almost grown kids. I love to travel, go to museums, see art… 4h
monalyisha I've gifted The Change to many a friend/family member! Such a cathartic read for the times. 4h
Karisa @monalyisha I‘m not familiar with that one. Need to go dig deeper! Thanks! 4h
TheBookHippie I still think about Zorrie! 4h
Karisa @TheBookHippie Me too! I had to go back to my Goodreads to see we‘d read it Spring of 2024. Seemed like just this year! 3h

A few of the books I‘m working on this week. The God and the Gumiho is a repeat. I‘m reading it with my daughter.

This was a lovely introspective memoir about living with depression & using nature as a balm for the soul. He opens up about his struggle with depression & how he found solace in taking nature walks (along with therapy & medication) to get on a healing journey. Each chapter focuses on an aspect in nature & relates to a life experience, while also giving solid facts about each animal or organism. His writing is very lyrical & poetic in the best way

September/October #ReadingBracket2025 Nonfiction
Kelly Bishop just stole my heart and the quarter final spot. George Takei's graphic memoir was a close second. October's winner was the soothing nature memoir, Something in the Woods Loves You

I admire his transparency about his anxiety - it sounds so debilitating and exhausting
I‘m glad he thanks his wife becasue holy shit she lifts and carries the family often

Tamra Women do a lot of heavy invisible lifting.💜 3w

Was hoping I might be able to use this for some of the teens I work with but it‘s too “much” for adolescent community mental health. Kate Bornstein is straight up truth.

Bookwomble You might, perhaps, find the tagged book is a more age-appropriate reflection on teen depression and suicidal ideation. 4w
Sleepswithbooks @bookwomble - Thank you! I will absolutely check it out!!! 4w
Bookwomble @Sleepswithbooks I should say it does have some swearing in it, but nothing, I seem to recall, too extreme. 4w

Working my way through my first book by Yiyun Li. It‘s not bad, but I want memoir to invite me inside the author‘s emotional truth, and I don‘t think this one has done that. While I can understand why Li maintains a somewhat academic distance, given the subject matter, I still wish it felt a little less like one of those documentaries where the narrator speaks blandly while unobtrusive piano music plays over a montage of archival footage.
