200 Books

We had a great little party. It was not very Halloween-esque but quite fun. Good friends and good conversation. One note, if you invite young men who are neither living at home nor married, I highly recommend having nutritious, filling food on hand. Shepherd’s Pie works well. They will be hungry and you earn a surprising amount of gratitude just by satisfying that.

Joan Didion continues apace. Miami in the eighties doesn’t sound like a fun place but her reportage is clear and interesting. At around eleven though, I find the information just starting to blur together. I got my copy of The Analects and think I’ll start it today too. I love taking a big stack of books with me to a coffee house and having people stare at me like I’m a freak. Nerd joy.
