UnhustledWhat I’m Reading

Four books. Four slightly different ways.

Still reading.
Still asking.

A few pages at a time. By skipping ahead. By going back over what I missed. And by letting myself ask questions I used to think I wasn’t supposed to ask.

This week’s books

01Slowly

A few pages at a time

These Truths

by Jill Lepore

02Curiously

By skipping ahead

London

by Edward Rutherfurd

I skipped to the 1700s, got interested, and now curiosity is pulling me through the long way around.

03Again

By going back

A Better Man

by Louise Penny

A reread after sleeping through more of Inspector Gamache than I realized. The plots make a LOT more sense now.

04Questioning

With an open question

The Edge of the Inside

by Jeremy Jernigan

A companion at the edge of faith while I ask what good—if any—comes from suffering.

“Sometimes reading isn’t about reaching a verdict.”

What are you reading differently right now?

More slowly, out of order, for a second time, or with a question you can’t answer yet?
