What are you reading this week of April 30, 2017? [View all]

I am laughing nightly to Callahan's Secret by Spider Robinson. While wildly funny it is also deeply serious. True, it feels a bit dated as it was written in the 70s, but the secret is timeless. Shared pain is decreased; shared joy is increased. Words I am truly living by these days.

And what MAY you be reading this week?
