Down to the wire, but I finished 100 books this year! Here is my annual top 10 list, plus a stack of honorable mentions.

FYI, you can find me over on the other app: amandagrayperry.bsky.social.
I'm still here on occasion, but I'm going to try to walk the walk, so to say, and put my effort into better spaces.

Remembering Indiana's Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee, who perished in the Apollo 1 launchpad fire 58 years ago this Sunday.
Today, we honor the heroes of our program who made the ultimate sacrifice in the name of exploration.
Safety remains our cornerstone as their courage continues to inspire our journey to the stars. #NASARemembers
Early birthday present from Minerva. Not every 4-year-old loves #JetLagTheGame, but not every 4-year-old is as cool as my kid.

So it might be more than 14 years after the fact, but we finally got this poster and signed set list framed from the @okgo show at @NotreDame. (One of the best concerts I’ve ever been to!)
“If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.” - Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood.
9. I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman - I loved this - as much a philosophy thinkpiece as a novel, this is going to be kicking around in my brain for a long time. I liken it to A Short Stay In Hell by Steven Peck. What is humanity in isolation?
2. How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them by Jason F. Stanley - One of the most important books I’ve read all year. Published in 2018, but even more timely today. If we don’t learn from our history, we are doomed to repeat it.
