This book is taking me along on the walk and teaching me that I don't need to hurry through my reading, that it's okay to take time. It's not a competition.

If all I get out of this book is adding the concept of "languishing" to my vocabulary of mental/physical conditions, it will be worth it. The idea of finally naming a state of being I am terribly familiar with has been amazing.

It is only fitting that I start this book on May 3rd, the same day Emma Gatewood set out from Mt Oglethorpe to hike the Appalachian Trail for the first time.

The book is set in Puerto Rico, so I'm in. I need a light read to get me back into the swing of reading.

Liking it so much, I had to switch to print.

This is my palate cleanser between heavier books, and I'm in no rush to get through it. It's good and I expect it'll take me all year to finish it.

I think I'm gonna shelf this and come back to it later. I desperately want to read it, but I'm not in the right headspace for it right now.

Slow going because it's fantastic material and I don't wanna rush through it. Yes, it's about money, but it's not about the money.

Chapter 1, and I'm already all in. Bards, Celtic-y islands, fae spirits - just give it to me all.

What a strange, fantastic book.
