Then you're my kinda gal. Have you read "The Library Book" by Susan Orlean or
"The Bad-Ass Librarians of Timbuktu: And Their Race to Save the World's Most Precious Manuscripts" by Joshua Hammer. I would recommend both of them - in between the time you spend working and commenting on various Substack columns. 😉

I haven't, but I'll definitely look for them on the Zon. I've been mostly reading political autobiographies and biographies, watch speeches, read 60 or 70 articles a day and read results from FOIA requests I've made when the government is willing to hand it over. I don't have the money for FOIA lawsuits. I just finished Reagan's book. It was extremely interesting. I had no idea how truly prepared he was for the Presidency. The media treated him as an uneducated and rather silly man and while he was a genuinely funny man, he was well educated and had amazing life experiences.
Remember when he was waiting for Gorbachev to get on the phone about East Germany and joking around, said, "Russia, the nukes have been launched. You have 30 minutes to take cover." Suddenly, Gorbachev's voice comes through all panicked and says, "What!?" Reagan laughs, a bit embarrassed, and says, "Uh, just joking! Now about this wall.." The Democrats lost their minds but I thought it was hysterically funny. 😂 I loved Reagan.

I thought he was a terrific President.

He called a spade a spade.
