Holy crap, is it already Wednesday Thursday again? This week has been a whirlwind of work, family stuff, music practice, and socializing. I've, alas, done very little reading.
What I Finished Reading This Week
Nada. *cough*
What I Am Currently Reading
Lexicon – Max Barry
I'm about a fourth of the way through and waiting for a non-hectic weekend so I can tackle the rest in a dedicated sitting.
Irish Tin Whistle Tutorial vol. I – Mary Bergin
I was on the fence about buying the first volume given that it's for "beginners" and depending on how one defines the term, potentially not of any use to me (i.e., I don't need to spend time on fingering, producing notes, or reading staff notation). Luckily, Bergin primarily defines it as "tonguing" and as that's something I could use work on (my abilities having been largely overwritten by a flute-appropriate approach) I'm getting a lot of mileage out of this book.
The Book of Night – Holly Black
I picked at this one this week, nothing more.
Gardener’s Magic and Other Old Wives’ Lore – Bridget Boland
A library book sale buy and thus far delightful.
Galatea – Madeline Miller
Well written and very heavy for its exceedingly short word count; thus, not something I want to continue reading right before bed.
Zodiac Connections – Alise Morales
This is absolute empty calorie brain candy fluff, which was about what I could handle last week.
What I’m Reading Next
This week I acquired Mary Bergin’s Irish Tin Whistle Tutorial vols. I, II, & III, Bridget Boland’s Gardener’s Magic and Other Old Wives’ Lore, Jean Hersey's The Woman's Day Book of House Plants, and Liz Garton Scanlon and Chuck Groenink's Full Moon Pups.
