THE LIBRARY AT MOUNT CHAR | gifted @broadwaybooks @crownpublishing

What the hell was that?!

Given the amount of reviews that start exactly the same way, you may think this is a compliment. But in my case, it’s not.

Reviews said I’d be confused by the first 100 pages. And I was.

They said I might still be confused by the NEXT 100 pages. And I was.

They said, despite that confusion, by the end they loved it. I did not.

It was gory and disgusting. It was confusing. Nothing made sense to me. And I finished - hate read it all the way to the end - bc I was sure you guys would be right and there’s no way you’d steer me wrong. You did.

The good news: I can probably safely take Blacktail, this author’s newest book, right off my TBR! // 78

Happy book birthday to Pam Houston’s ANIMALS TAUGHT ME EVERYTHING 🎉 Houston has offered us all an invitation to celebrate how much we love the animals who shape our lives—and a challenge to expand that love to the creatures we do not know personally and to those we do not claim to understand.

ANIMALS TAUGHT ME EVERYTHING asks: What can a wagging tail and soaring wings teach us about a life well lived?

From Icelandic mares and Irish wolfhounds to elephants, leopards, hyenas, and a desert-adapted lioness named Charlie, Pam Houston has learned life’s most important lessons from animals. How to play. How to rest. How to love. How to die. How to be present with the dying. How to be present with the living and with the Earth. How to find joy in the least likely places. How to find joy, literally, everywhere. With playful sincerity, Houston finds power and promise in the teachings of our fellow creatures and reminds us that animals are here for us, every day and everywhere.

Get your copy anywhere you find books (psst...support your local indie bookseller!). And join Pam on her colossal tour!!! 🐴

I wasn’t going to go out last night! I was tired and I had a ton of work to do.

I’m so glad I did.

It was such a wonderful evening with @drandreamatsumura @andizeis @ajrhq @jenniferweisswolf @menopunks @broadwaybooks.

I’m looking forward to reading “When in Menopause: A User’s Manual and Citizen’s Guide.

And if you haven’t read @andizeis’s article in @salonmagazine you can find it here ->

Second year of being co-chair for my kids’ school Book Fair. Also our second year of partnering with a local book store - @broadwaybooks ! First day was a huge success. It’s the best week of the year!

Just finished this masterpiece last night. Keith Rosson is forever an “if he writes it, I’ll read it” author for me. He writes in a realm of fantasy but it’s so well done that there’s never a moment when I believe that it really couldn’t have happened. He’s brilliant at balancing reality and supernaturalism in a way that is continuously engaging and heart stopping. He’s a perfect blend of true horror and thriller. This is an EASY pick up for the season of the witch. 🧙🏼‍♀️😉

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the e-ARC in exchange for a review.

So today’s my birthday. 43. Feels like a number cut from granite.

Woke up, slugged three coffees, made a bed that’s not mine, meditated terribly, then walked along yellowing, grizzly-pocked wildlands that skirt Yellowstone.

Can’t wait to see what comes this year. Because last year? Last year was…a lot.

At 42, I watched thousands of snow geese fly home at sunup days before watching my mother die, her pulse flown home. I walked north-to-south across Sicily with a ring in my pocket and asked my beloved to marry me. My car got hit. Climbed Mount Hood and ate peanut-butter-bird’s-eye-pepper sandwiches with Robert Macfarlane. Ran a 50K on nothing but one single apple fritter. Slept in the dirt deep in Utah canyon country, the Bitterroots, the Sawtooths. Taught writing on Aldo Leopold’s land in WI and at Orion’s environmental workshop in NY. Traveled to the Himalaya, Ladakh, for a story with Patagonia that I can’t hardly wait to share with you. Sat on a panel at the Brooklyn Book Festival. Joined a board. Won a book award. Launched a paperback (fall tour above, come say hello and share with your networks, will you?). Gave up coffee. Came back to coffee, begging. Set a free library in concrete outside my house and now creep daily on the give-and-take of each passersby.

I grew. I got absolutely crushed. I grew some more.

Humbled, quieted, closer to the bone.

Here we are. Ready for you, 43. Mentoring with granite this round.

(And yes, I own a Carl Jung action figure. 🤓)
