Friday Reads & Links


It’s Friday, friends, and you know what that means… let’s talk about what we’re reading!

It thought it might be fun to expand this Friday essay to include links to articles I found interesting this week, like my old Sunday Smatterings offerings. So look for a few extras from now on.

As we speak, I have two books going.

Lisa Jewell’s latest, NONE OF THIS IS TRUE, has everyone talking, and for good reason.

And there’s a new offering coming from my buddy Boyd Morrison, THE LAST TRUE TEMPLAR. This series is really cool, a medieval adventure with a noble knight and his lady love. Boyd and his sister Beth do a ton of research, and I highly recommend them.

Jillian Hess has a moment of enlightenment from one of my favorites, Virginia Woolf.

I was fascinated by The Squid Hunter by David Grann, recommended by my friend Cal Newport on his podcast. This kind of long-form journalism is so cool.

Speaking of Cal, he has a new, updated version of his Time Block Planner that I am in love with.

When I want to escape next, this is what I’m going to look for.

So how about you? What are you reading this weekend?
