hello Beehaw, it’s a sleepy morning–and i did not get very much sleep. luckily i have no social priorities so this is not a big deal. currently reading a number of books after completely crashing out of doing that for the entire month of June. i think i can get about 3 in before the end of the month, we’ll see

    I finished the book on Endurance by Alfred Lansing which was pretty amazing. TGPEoAT sound pretty cool, will definitely be checking it out :) Thank you. Have you read In Cold Blood (?) by Truman Capote which is supposed to have basically started true crime as a genre?

        It was, but not just that I’ve read somewhere that the book managed to influence the jury who was hearing the case because it was so popular.
