What are you currently reading?
~ I started The Girl from Everywhere randomly. But, folks, I am hardly reading. Nothing new for me lately, huh? I also still am technically reading Bad Feminist, but haven't picked it up in a few days.
What are you currently listening to?
~ I have had a cold, so have been slacking on the treadmill. This means that I am still listening to Becoming Jazz and Feedback. Hopefully now that I am feeling a lot better, I can get back to them!
What did you recently finish reading?
~ I recently finished The Promise of Canada. It was really quite good. Charlotte Grey looked at 150 years of Canadian history through famous people of its past. And, it was a very diverse group, which made me happy. Let's face it, history is usually told by a bunch of white men. Grey included women, immigrants, and Native Canadians. As a result, she talked about people that I have not read about a million times before. It was refreshing! (Let's face it, all of our prime ministers were white guys. The one girl that was in power was just a figure head while the Conservatives cleaned up after Brian Mulroney.)
What do you think you will read next?
~ Some more nonfiction. I should read something off my list for Nonfiction November, but after really enjoying The Promise of Canada, I kind of want to read one of the other books by Grey on my TBR that I haven't got around to yet... I really want to start some new audios, too. It is late in the month for me to be still on the same ones!
Being sick is the worst. All activities stop for be when I don't feel good. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteLook at that handsome pup! I fell out of working out when I got sick a couple of weeks ago. I have to get back to it. Feel better and hope you find a great nonfiction to read!
