It's time for my annual summer reading list, and unlike the the recent AI-generated Chicago Sun-Times list, all of these books actually exist and I have held in my hands!

Now that Summer gets its own branding each year - Barefoot-Boy Summer? Side Chick Summer? - may I suggest that this Summer is coined "Our Summer," a chance for each of us to personalize the next few months. A chance for us to give our bodies exactly what WE need to get the most from …

#Summerreads 2022

On June 13, 2022June 15, 2022 By Andy MilneIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

In a year when I've been physically and mentally challenged more than any other in my career, and I'm aware that I said something similar last summer (!), books have been a constant in my self-care armory.

Summertime is the time for me to read books. Yes, real, sniffable, hold them in your hands and try not to bend the spine too much, books. My morning commute during the school year is filled with podcast listening, but with good weather forecast for the next few months I'm excited to update last years …
