pm--7 A little longer run up around the Canyons. I'm thinking I need to make better food choices. 
 

I finished The Leavers by Lisa Ko. It's on my list of contemporary fiction TBR list. It reminded me of a shorter, better version of The Goldfinch. Deals with culture, language, and finding your place.

am--3.5 Just a few miles at the end of a tired week. Hope I bounce back after a rest day. 
 

I finished The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien. Brutal and funny, the book is a well-written example of meta fiction. I would recommend it.
