📚 About 📚
I'm trying out having a blog loosely structured around the books I finished reading in a calendar month; we'll see if it goes anywhere.
Caveat: these are just my impressions; it's likely I misread the content of books and/or formed an opinion that's half-baked or concerns my own interiority more than anything in the actual text.
