The Books

💖 The Singing Hills Cycle (Nghi Vo)

A beautiful series about a wandering cleric who collects stories. Perfect for reading aloud. I ended up binding my own copies of these books.

💖 The Murderbot Diaries (Martha Wells)

A security robot who just wants to watch TV shows. Surprisingly relatable.

You Can Negotiate Anything (Herb Cohen)

Classic negotiation book. Some dated examples but core principles hold up.

Permutation City (Greg Egan)

Hard sci-fi about consciousness uploading. Made my brain hurt in a good way.

The Hobbit (J.R.R. Tolkien)

Read this aloud with silvia. A very different experience from reading it alone.
