Not totally sold on the George Saunders hype but will check this out

still moving thru Wheel of Time series.. up to book 6

think ill get this book Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness Are the Keys to Understanding the True Nature of the Universe
by Robert Lanza, Bob Berman

The theory implies that death of consciousness simply does not exist. It only exists as a thought because people identify themselves with their body. They believe that the body is going to perish, sooner or later, thinking their consciousness will disappear too. If the body generates consciousness, then consciousness dies when the body dies. But if the body receives consciousness in the same way that a cable box receives satellite signals, then of course consciousness does not end at the death of the physical vehicle. In fact, consciousness exists outside of constraints of time and space. It is able to be anywhere: in the human body and outside of it. In other words, it is non-local in the same sense that quantum objects are non-local.

Reading The Green Child by Herbert Read.. then The Third Policeman by Flann O'Brien..

Also got some interesting gardening books from the library I'll flip thru

Green Child sounds pretty interesting, just checked out the wikipedia and now i'm going to add it to my list, i see it's free on archive too archive.org/details/greenchild030736mbp

I have three books lined up for the summer, Death On The Installment Plan, Society of the Spectacle and one other that is somehow slipping my mind now

I've got some non fiction ready to go, but not much in the mood for it ATM..

Age of Anger and J is for Junk Economics amongst other older more radical ones

im in the mood for some easy reads lately. more emotional than thinking type books. get lost in a story and all of a sudden time to get off train.

of course kindle makes it easy to switch it up in an instant as the mood suits

Currently reading A Weed by Any Other Name by Nancy Gift. A botanist from Cornell. A look at our lawns and how to love our unwanted plants.

Beautiful book totally in line with my thinking. A chapter n hawkweed or Devil's Paintbrush. I mow around them too..

And Hemp Dogbane, what a name!
