I divide my reading time between psychology books (going from one to another without any direction) and fiction. I tried keeping up with my "study" books in the evening, but that doesn't work for me. I need fiction to unwind and get away from reality. Right now I'm reading Jeff Vandermeer, who is just crazy enough for me.
Your books seem quite interesting, especially the one about Musk.. still trying to make up my mind about him. But, as I have trouble keeping my mind away from everyday politics and problems, I prefer to get lost in post-apocalyptic worlds populated with various monsters. At least those I know are not real.
I really feel for you and your tiny balcony. Not that mine is some great terrace... The downside is that it's too hot outside these days so it's not all that pleasant in the afternoon.
Fiction is a great escape, it can be like a vacation. The Musk biography is one of the best I've read and really like the fact that politics are left out. In many ways Musk is apolitical, he''s just not a fan of the direction the Dems have taken. I'm a fan of Isaacson's work though and have connected with quite a few of the biographies he's written.
This condo and its little balcony has been a life lesson for me. Lol. When we first bought this condo we didn't plan on spending much time here and just using it as a home base for travel. That seemed to be working out until the pandemic and then just when we were starting to travel again last year life threw us another curve ball that's preventing us from traveling for the foreseeable future. We're looking for a larger place now, probably somewhere out of the city with a big yard and more room. We have sweltering heat in a lot of places in the US too! Ohio was very hot/humid when I was down there, Phoenix just broke an all time record for heat yesterday. I bet your balcony is nice in the morning or late at night.
