I had big plans to get a lot done this morning, but I woke up feeling sleepy and instead thought about Julia Pierpont’s Among the Ten Thousand Things and started Caroline Zancan’s Local Girls, both of which I’m reading in preparation for next week’s party at housingworksbookstore with rachelfershleiser.I’m pretty sure Local Girls was written for me, friends. It’s everything I love in a book: complicated female friendships, women growing into adulthood, unraveling secrets and histories, a non-hateful view of women who enjoy observing celebrity culture, and a bonus promise of a death (maybe murder?) by the end. I’m only about 50 pages in, so I’m sure there are many more thoughts to come.Among the Ten Thousand Things is wonderful and sad, too, and maybe wasn’t written for me but I completely understand why people are loving it this year.The coffee I’m currently drinking is “Snickerdelicious” from Java Dave’s, my favorite local coffee chain in Oklahoma City. I don’t get it too often now that I live 1,500 miles away, so it’s always a nice treat when I have the beans. If you like flavored coffee, I highly recommend ordering a bag. It’s worth it.What are you reading this weekend? -- source link
