so-soNothing wrong with these lessons, but for me they feel more intuitive. I will say that there was something kind of old fashioned and comforting about the advice that I did enjoy. It reminded me of the classes my father took for his company in the 70‘s and 80‘s. Dad is highly effective, so maybe it worked. 🤷🏻♀️

My dad wasn't much of a reader, but he was a fan of Stephen Covey's 7 Habits book, and I still think about both it and him when I'm working, even if it couldn't be further from my reading preferences. The odd thing is, I have all these bookish memories linked to him: 1) him wanting to buy me this expensive book when I was a kid but making sure I would read it (I never did), 2) me taking John Dean's memoir from his shelf 👇
My other new find. Really looking forward to this read

A trilogy finish that‘s been on my tbr & physical shelves for way too long. Because it‘s been years😬since I read the preceding instalments so, this was basically read as a stand alone. I very much enjoyed it as much as the others. Strong characters with zing to go with a great storyline.
Sunday reading with snuggly Penny.
I‘m so impressed with Cait Nary‘s range, y‘all. She‘s great at high stress romances (SEASON‘S CHANGE), adorable romcoms (LUCKY BOUNCE), and stuff like this, which slides into that sweet spot where there‘s SOME stress for the characters but it‘s mostly about them, like, finding their way through a scenario they hoped they could avoid but are actually coping with really well. IT‘S SO GOOD. Bring on the back half.
pickThis collection of hard science fiction short stories was a throwback to my youthful engagement with the genre in the best possible way. The selections were well-curated and the stories high-quality; and, as with most anthologies (and boxes of chocolates), if one offering doesn't particularly appeal to your taste the next one will likely hit that sweet spot dead on.
so-soThis lost me when there tried to be some deeper meaning in this story. That felt unbelievable, I couldn't believe in all those big emotions after one sex weekend. Well they had known each other longer but it still wasn't believable.
