Finished reading: I enjoyed the rich detail of The Witness for the Dead by Katherine Addison. I think you need to have liked The Goblin Emperor (which I did) to appreciate this one though📚
📺 Sunny (2024) - ★★★☆☆
The first half was okay and then kind of falls apart. Although not a surprise, the last scene was unnecessary
I really like the idea of the unified inbox in the new Reeder and for $1/month I’m very happy to try it out in practice

We said goodbye to Lucy today. She was a good dog, great companion, and will be missed 😢
George did not appreciate the short-lived experiment with a life jacket
Going to be tough to leave
Coming to the end of a great vacation
Finished reading: The Long War by Stephen Baxter is okay. Not nearly as interesting as the first book in the series and has a rather meandering plot 📚
Finished reading: I mostly enjoyed The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz. Great world building across thousands of years and interesting ideas. The middle third dragged a bit though 📚
🏃♂️ Coming across this World War 1 monument, seemingly in the middle of nowhere while running on a country road, was a good reminder of the sacrifices people have made for us
🎵 Although more cheerful than the last few albums, Wild God by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds is still steeped in spiritual yearning
Finished reading: A Prayer for the Crown-Shy by Becky Chambers is delightful. The Monk and Robot series is fun. Sort of like a mirror universe Murderbot📚
Finished reading: The Hidden Palace by Helene Wecker is richly detailed with interesting characters and intriguing plot. A nice sequel to The Golem and the Jinni 📚
🏃♂️ I find it easier to keep good form at faster paces. So, practicing staying tall at a more moderate pace
🏃♂️ Inspired by finishing The Lost Art of Running to pay attention to my form. For this run I focused on running tall and looking forward. Tough to maintain on the hills
Finished reading: The Lost Art of Running by Shane Benzie has lots of great anecdotes and tips. I know my running form could be better and this book has both inspired and empowered me to improve 📚
A new mug from my daughter, along with some high expectations

Finished reading: Starter Villain by John Scalzi is a fun, easy vacation read 📚
