What am I reading?

I have been called a book-pusher and a book evangelist. I believe reading can be a tool for building compassion, critical thinking, and civil discourse. I believe books can help expand our worldview. I believe in reading widely and wildly, a phrase shamelessly stolen from Jeanette Winterson, and I want to help you do the same.

You’ll find lots of bookish talk and book recs here, and, I hope, a community that pushes you outside your reading rut.
