What I'm Currently reading 📖

I'm usually reading anywhere between two to five books at a time. A few years ago, I was a devoted, kindle-only fanatic, but during the pandemic, I fell in love with paperbacks and hardcovers again.

I usually reserve buying "real" books, as some might call them, for the ones I really expect to be profound texts that I'll enjoy keeping in my home library. Oftentimes, I'll also give these out.

You can find some of the impressions written up in my .books category and the pipeline of the ones yet to be written on my Goodreads page.

Here's a list of what's currently in my reading arsenal (updated October 2024):
