#MentalHealthMonday a day late !
1.every day is crazy day.I have much to do but the pain & cruelty coming down in this political scene is toxic.
2.music is always a great idea!
3. I was pretty edgy in my choices as a young adult, I find myself in this crazy time gravitating to the pop/rock of my childhood for comfort!😁I am diehard NPR usually, but can‘t take the ridiculous crap all day long.

Leftcoastzen @Ruthiella indeed! My radio just played Huey Lewis and the News !😄 1mo
Kerrbearlib I agree, the pain and cruelty is toxic. It can be so heartbreaking to read the news and so hard not to slip into despair. Love your book choice. What are some of your favorite groups from the 1970s? I've been listening to more music from that decade and really enjoying it! 1mo

Leftcoastzen @Kerrbearlib oh so many, the Stones , the Who, when I was young so much was top 40 . The Kinks , Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Springsteen. I just had to stop & listen to Lean On Me by Bill Withers yesterday, let it wash over me! 1mo
Leftcoastzen @Kerrbearlib listening to For What it‘s Worth by Buffalo Springfield often! 1mo

BethM I‘m so glad I got to see the Stones with my dad a few years ago! 1mo

Pickpick

Absolutely essential writings of our nation's founding. Poetry, memoir, letters, reportage - it's all here from the triumphal to the horrific realities of Black life in early America. I took my time with this one dipping in and out over the last year. Baskerville has built a solid collection.

This is actually my first experience with a Library of America title (imma Penguin Classic girlie) and I was genuinely surprised to see it as an ARC.

This had many well-written stories from writers young and old. Many genres were represented. Points galore for #WGWordSearch.
