First though - The grab bag books.
I started "The Terminal" right away. I am about halfway through the book. Again, this is my first Stephen King book. I won't say too much, but I feel the 2nd half will go quickly. He has that easy-to-read fast-paced style that draws you in.
The "Eye of the World" (Robert Jordan) is going slower. I am out of touch with listening to books on CD. or CDs in general. I've finished the first of 25 discs, and I am curious to uncover what CD-playing resources are available to me. I realize I can use streaming audiobooks, but for now I want to try the CDs. I have one of those retro style all-in-one turntable/radio/cd players which I enjoy. I just need to hopefully connect my Bluetooth headphones to it and I can listen on the couch.

The story itself is one of those epic novels that spans millennia. I already know it is the starting book of a series.
Secondly - the books I was already reading. I am fine reading several books at once. I'll write more when I finish them

- "Meditations" Marcus Aurelius - I've been dipping into this for a long time but have not read it through. I always feel stronger after I've read in this.
- "Down to Earth" Rhonda Hetzel - I read her blog (which she recently ended) off and on and she was inspiring. She writes about sustainable living and lives in Australia.
- "Unaging" Robert Friedland - a book bought on a visit to a local (Louisville) true bookstore. I enjoy learning about what helps our brains stay alive through aging.
- "Make, Sew and Mend" Bernadette Banner - my daughter and I watch her You Tube channel regularly. She sews by hand and a foot-powered sewing machine. She shows you how (and why) you can sew just about anything. I love that she uses repurposed fabric.
- "Sidney Chambers and the Shadow of Death" James Runcie - I've been following the PBS adaptation of his books on Grantchester. Mystery is probably my favorite genre.
