Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties
By: Tom O'Neill
A journalist's twenty-year fascination with the Manson murders leads to "gobsmacking" (The Ringer) new revelations about the FBI's involvement in this "kaleidoscopic" (The New York Times) reassessment of an infamous case in American history.
I started this a while ago and then got distracted by another book. I've come back to it and am just beginning to dive in.
Chaos by
How to Be Perfect
By: Michael Schur
From the creator of The Good Place and the cocreator of Parks and Recreation, a hilarious, thought-provoking guide to living an ethical life, drawing on 2,400 years of deep thinking from around the world.
This one is my current audiobook. I had started it also a while ago and stopped thinking I wanted to delve deeper with the audiobook. But when I saw it available as a library audiobook I decided to go with it.
How to Be Perfect by
Braiding Sweetgrass
By: Robin Wall Kimmerer
Drawing on her life as an indigenous scientist, and as a woman, Kimmerer shows how other living beings—asters and goldenrod, strawberries and squash, salamanders, algae, and sweetgrass—offer us gifts and lessons, even if we've forgotten how to hear their voices.
Another I had started as an audiobook but I didn't manage to finish it before it was returned to the library, and it hasn't been available for me when I've wanted it since then (everytime it came up I was in the middle of another book.) So, this week I picked up a physical copy from Barnes & Noble.

These are books that are at the top of my unread pile. Will they actually be next? No idea.
- The Three Body Problem by Cixin Liu and Ken Liu - Another I had begun as an audiobook and quickly realized the book required more focus and attention from me.
- The Climate Book by Greta Thunberg - We just had the hottest week ever, I don't think we can consume too much information about what is going on and what needs to be done.
- Checkmate in Berlin by Giles Milton - Honestly, this is one I picked up months ago and then the physical book got buried and I lost track of it.
And then this is what the most recent books are in my ebook library:
