Started Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire. First book in her October Daye urban fantasy series. This is my first Seanan McGuire book, have heard a lot about her.

Still skimming through The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Caroll.

Putting Ultra-processed Food by Chris van Tulleken on hold for a bit, shouldn't have started multiple non-fiction at once. Will pick it up after finishing the Bullet Journal Method.

Just finished "Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir. For entertainment. Enjoyed the story as it was very much reminiscent of The Martian by him aswell. Goes into the science and is reasonably accurate with some embellishment to keep the tension and add interesting characters.

Also just finished "The Let Them Theroy" by Mel Robbins. It was very helpful gave me a perspective that was diffuse to see and made me second guess myself alot. I was always trying to always fix situations where someone was mad/angry with me. It help me recognize I'm not responsible for their emotions, Let them be mad". And let me identify what I can control myself. The only other person's emotion you are responsible for are childrens and your goal is to help them process them and tell them emotions are ok. It really is that simple.

Been looking for a new personal growth book. Started "Notes on Being a Man" by Scott Galloway. Its interesting so far. More of a memior so far.

Project Hail Mary is at the top of my list to read next before the movie comes out soon. Glad to hear someone says they enjoyed it. Haven't read The Martian. I have heard a lot of people talk about it. Do you recommend it?

I’ve read both and highly enjoyed both. I read The Martian after I saw the movie and I still recommend it even if you saw the movie already

Highly recommend the audiobook version of Project: Hail Mary. You really get a lot more out of the experience. Plus Ray Porter is awesome
