What are you reading this week of March 12, 2017? [View all]
Lots going on this week. Did you remember to change your clocks? Got your corned beef and cabbage? An old Irish legend you might want to be aware of this week: On Judgment Day you will be suspended head-down in a barrel containing all the liquor you've ever spilled. If you drown, to Hell with you.
I just learned that from reading Callahan's Crosstime Saloon by Spider Robinson. There are a great many gems of wisdom in this book. Not to mention puns galore.
I also just listened to Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology which my library offered on Overdrive. I knew they had books in PDF but had no idea they offered audibles. I was thrilled to find this. I'm not well-versed in Norse mythology, other than the basic who's who, so this was great fun to listen to. Especially as it was read by Gaiman. 
But the end: dayum! That was scary as hell. The winter that doesn't end. That was just too real. Save your shoes!!
I'll leave you with another bit of Callahan wisdom: Shared pain lessened, shared joy increased.
May you find a pot of books at the end of your rainbow.
