I’m playing a bit of catch up here, but now that I feel fully settled in to a new city, a new job, and a new climate (I’ve already gotten my first cold of the year, naturally), it’s time to share what I’ve been reading and loving over the past few months! September was aContinue reading “September 2023 reading wrap-up”

August was a huge month for me on the personal side of things. I moved from Arizona, got settled in my new home of Chicago, and then took a trip to Japan. Along the way, I needed some easy-going comfort books to take my mind off of packing and the stress of a cross-country move.Continue reading “August 2023 reading wrap up”

Here’s a quick summary of what I’ve been reading through the first part of the summer, written from a new location! (I moved away from Arizona.)

I was fortunate to read new novels and stories from writers I love, like Victor LaValle, RachelContinue reading “April 2023 reading wrap-up”

This is the dawning of the age of Andrew writing wrap-ups on time! Hopefully. I will be playing some catch-up with writing these wrap-ups over this Memorial Day weekend, with April’s coming soon, and May’s following after that. February-March really illustrates a transition period towards what has been the dominant theme of my reading thisContinue reading “February and March 2023 reading wrap up”

I’ve been reading, but at this point it should be abundantly clear that I haven’t been writing. Part of the delay in the December wrap-up is that I actually wrote about a few of these books in my Favorite Books of 2022 rundown, so it felt unnecessary to expand upon them further. Alas, guilt andContinue reading “A late (and quick) reading wrap-up from december ’22 through january ’23”
