I feel caught out by this article, but in a good way! 😊 My usual reading time is in bed just before sleep, so I tend to read a LOT of good but not very challenging SFF books--because I want to sleep after reading, not get myself worked up! But I should set aside some time during the day to read more nonfiction books. I have an Amazon list of them as long as my arm that I keep not getting to. Braiding Sweetgrass is definitely on there! Here are a few of mine:

Currently reading: Chokepoint Capitalism, by Rebecca Giblin & Cory Doctorow

Stamped from the Beginning by Ibram X. Kendi

No Time To Spare: Thinking About What Matters by Ursula K. Le Guin, Karen Joy Fowler

The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration by Isabel Wilkerson

An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz

Debt: The First 5,000 Years by David Graeber

Having and Being Had by Eula Biss

A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities That Arise in Disaster by Rebecca Solnit

Oh wow I am looking over them all....so many...and I want to start reading them now.... 📖 🥰
