  • Summary

  • Here's what's on our minds (and playlists) this week:

    Catherine's library find is a book she judged by its cover. Glassworks's art and blurbs appealed enough for Catherine to give this debut novel by Olivia Wolfgang-Smith a try (it also happens to be on the Staff Picks table at her library right now, chosen by another staff member). It's a creative, but uneven, tale of four generations trying, and often failing, to connect with and support one another.

    Terri's random recommendation is the latest album (collection of songs?) from HARDY, titled "Quit!!" She's enjoying the artist's transition from country music to F-bomb-laden hard rock.

    In the archives, we revisit a rant from four years ago: Simply Refusing to Simplify, about the (many) issues we have with listicle-format advice on minimalism.

    Next week's lineup:
    • A Gentleman in Moscow E3, "The Last Rostov," on Tuesday, July 23
    • Lost S1 E3, "Tabula Rasa," on Wednesday, July 24
    • Weekly roundup on Thursday, July 25

    Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
