I’m just explaining why parents might opt for a larger car especially if they have multiple children. It used to be mini vans, now it’s SUVs or crossovers which are probably not much bigger than station wagons.

Also car seats are enormous and don’t fit well into compact cars unless the passenger side seat is all the way up and maybe not even then. Good luck if you have more than one kid that needs a car seat too.
I’ve read or started to read 10 of them. I had a hard time getting into a Master of Djinn and didn’t finish. All Systems Red is fine but not great. I didn’t care for Name of the Wind or Binti. I loved Seveneves, The Fifth Season, and Ancillary Justice though.
Tofu scramble might be nice, easy to mix in soft veg.
It really bothers me that the bench is not under the tree.
I used to have a boring data entry job and I listened to audiobooks every day. It was great. Now I mostly listen in the car or while doing chores. I kind of miss having those long lengths of time to listen.
I recently bought the audiobook for Gideon the Ninth. Glad to see another recommendation.
I don’t really have a criteria. If I read the blurb and like it or someone recommends to me I’ll probably pick it up. I also have no problem ejecting after a couple chapters if it’s not interesting though. The library makes this especially easy because I have not invested any money only a bit of time.
It was interesting. You don’t really think kids are that exposed to diet culture but it’s in everything.
Fat Talk: Parenting in the Age of Diet Culture by Virginia Sole-Smith. I just started it so no opinions yet.
I just finished up The Locked Tomb trilogy on audio and now I’m reading the dead tree version of The Priory of the Orange Tree. I tried to start it on audio about a year ago but it was too dense for the short listening blocks I have these days. It’s been a while since I read any epic fantasy and I’m enjoying it a lot so far.
