Fav 2025 audiobook: Be Ready When the Luck Happens by Ina Garten 🎧

Read by Ina. She’s so naturally funny. Paris apartment redecorating chapter is a bit out of touch, but overall a fun gym listen. Her WBUR talk on the book was lovely. How great is that? #booksky

Most informative 2025 read: Undoing Drugs by @maiasz.bsky.social 📚

This book blew my mind and low key rerouted my grad school studies (in the best way). A must read for harm reductionists. Bleachman forever.

Fav 2025 read: The Faces by Tove Ditlevsen

An author is institutionalized after being haunted by floating faces. Spooky thriller. Reminded me of Surfacing by Margaret Atwood. #booksky
