Reading in the intersession

Another year! Jeez...

Hey, what to read this academic intersession? There's so much good stuff!

Oops. I mean:
Feel free to post how you're getting there, if you have room in your vehicle, or if you need a ride. Bathtub, away!

Did you do good reading?

Man, first day back to school. Is it all downhill, or uphill from here? What about plateauing? Nobody talks about plateauing.

Are there good books to read? Did you read any of those over academic intersession?

Let me imagine you at a windowsill, under a quilt pattern drinking spiced tea. What good reading did you do at that time?
