Couple of weeks ago I was flipping channels, stopped at the local PBS station right when Daniel G. Amen, MD was making the point that Psychology/Psychiatry was the only medical field where the physician doesn't exam the organ/structure that's causing the problem. For example, if you have a problem with digestive system... the Gastroenterologist will x-ray, CAT … etc... etc... scope your guts. Bone or joint issue... Orthopedists will x-ray, CAT, MRI... etc... etc... your bones. Psychologist/Psychiatrist still (for the most part) make their diagnosis and decide on treatment based on symptoms alone. I thought... yeah, that's true. I became intrigued and bought the book connected to the show...

Feel Better Fast and Make It Last: Unlock Your Brain’s Healing Potential to Overcome Negativity, Anxiety, Anger, Stress, and Trauma

I'm only a couple of chapters in and it's very interesting!

Come with Me by Helen Schulman



From Helen Schulman, the acclaimed author of the New York Times bestseller This Beautiful Life, comes another "gripping, potent, and blisteringly well-written story of family, dilemma, and consequence" (Elizabeth Gilbert)—a mind-bending novel set in Silicon Valley that challenges our modern constructs of attachment and love, purpose and fate.

Got it as a gift, looks good...

Jill Soloway's book which just came out, She Wants It. Is the first time I read "my story" about being nonbinary genderqueer in a way that really gripped me. I am not talking about her fame or her trans parent or the show. I am talking about her evolution to a butch identity and feeling not male or not female.

Default Murakami


"Killing Commendatore" by my favorite
author Haruki Murakami...his latest came out in Oct 2018
is 700pgs if that means anything to you...it is a book to
be read slowly...it is one to savor in this Winter...and it's
just what I'm doing...date a girl who reads?
oh yes, and love a girl who enjoys reading Murakami...smiling
...terrific surreal...magical realism...if you enjoy these you'll
enjoy this novel.

It's interesting that Murakami writes his novels in Japanese
his native language and then they are translated into other
several languages. I sometimes want to learn Japanese to
understand what may be missing from the English
translations...better yet I will begin reading these in my
native language...now that would be interesting...

good reading, Greco

I finished Elaine Pagels' Why Religion? about a week ago. It's the memoir of a professor of religious studies. I had read a couple of her books back in the day, so I thought I'd try it. It was good. A lot about grief.

Now, Sigrid Nunez's The Friend

"Killing Commendatore" was an intense and satisfying read.
If you enjoy going down mysterious, supernatural "rabbit holes"
than this Murakami novel is excellent.


Reading "Digital Minimalism" by Cal Newport non-fiction
and gives much, much "food for thought".

With ears: The Last Black Unicorn by Tiffany Haddish.

With eyes: Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

Not a fan of Love in the Time of Cholera. The author should not have attempted to write the interior sexuality of ANY women, and the treatment of the black women is gross.

It's for book club though so i will press on. I guess the Tiffany Haddish book provides some balance at least.

The Terror Dream by Susan Faludi. Remember Backlash? The saga continues.

Economics by Ha-Joon Chang. Fun book for a stuffy subject. Or I just love economics and will read anything about it.

I just finished "Where the Crawdads Sing" by Delia Owens. I loved this book and highly recommend it.
