5. Millennials Are Out-Reading Older Generations; see if you can find the “but.”
6. My neighbor’s Ithaca Court Occasional House is the cutest! If it does not encourage you to plan your visit to Cleveland, I do not know what will!
7. Some book reviews:
- Amusing Ourselves to Death by Neil Postman ★★★★ is one of the most interesting and thought provoking books I have read all year.
- Thrive by Brendan Brazier ★★★ Interesting food and fitness read.
- Show Your Work by Austin Kleon ★★★★★ Impressive and inspiring as always! Do your “art,” in whatever form, and share it with others.
To top off the week, we saw Austin Kleon last night on his book tour for Keep Going (reviewed in Week 14). What a cool guy! Seeing a favorite author/artist speak is quite the charge!
8. And, as always, here are some tunes:
Well, I think that’s it for this week! Until next time…
