Books for 4/18

My main current book is The Ever After of Ashwin Rao, which deals — one way and another — with aftermath (I love aftermath!). I am also dipping in and out of this essay collection Cupcakes, Pinterest, and Ladyporn, which is an absolute treat; and while I am brushing my teeth, I am reading one of my Own Damn Books, i.e., Thomas Cahill’s book on why the Greeks are important to history.

Nonfiction isn’t quite as subject to the vagaries of taste as fiction is, so you can see how I might acquire a whole bunch of it without having read those books beforehand. I DO NOT HAVE A PROBLEM.)

It’s Monday, what are you reading?
