It’s that time again! We want to hear all about what you’re reading! Susan: I’m reading Roslyn Sinclair’s Truth and Measure and I am incredibly resentful of every commitment I have that keeps me from reading more.

Tara: Susan, it’s soooooo freaking good … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? April 2022, Part One→
