Also, on the theme of AI and our sociocultural present and future, I’ve been meaning to recommend The Future by Naomi Alderman. Not sure if you have already ready/recommended it and I missed it, but it’s a very 2023 take on the end of days!
I read (listened to) The Secret History per your ‘5 books that changed my life’ recommendation! It’s not my usual genre, but I got so invested, and i’m bashfully giddy to finally understand the allure of dark academia fiction.
Excitedly explaining the plot to my mom during our occasional and unofficial book club meeting — which is just the two of us chatting about books we’ve read recently and which ones we recommend — she cuts me off to ask “Yeah... Bunny, right?”
We have overlapping tastes in books, but of all the books we’ve shared with one another, it feels special that this was the only book we’ve both came across separately and were able to share together. 💓
I moved to Vancouver Island in the spring of 2022 and have visited The Butchart Gardens so many times in the short period since then! Totally agree with you that spending a couple of hours in a beautiful garden is so nourishing.
