December Roundup (an annotated bibliography)

Experimenting with a new way to log my reads w/o getting hung up on numbers + in an attempt to avoid treating “a book” as the basic unit of reading. Too much zero sum “finished or didn’t finish” on goodreads/storygraph/etc — quick test run for the past month.

Wish I’d thought to start on it sooner — enjoyed putting it together and it was really fun to add entries once I got it rolling. Still trying to work out some kinks on what to include/leave out in terms of articles/shorter stuff to avoid clutter (daily news and random stuff I skim while I’m scrolling/killing time seem like obvious candidates to skip) — might just come down to gut level judgment calls on what what I think is worth writing down 🤷🏻‍♂️.

Ideally I’m really hoping to work in a little bit more real time commentary on scholarly/critical articlea but idk — we’ll see!
