The Weekly Wrap - The Weekly Wrap #66
Like what you’re reading? Consider sharing it with a friend. I share information for a living. The general non-fiction shelf on our bookcase is mighty crowded. I want to read it down. The only title that called out to me when I went to pick my next book was Emily Oster’s The Family Firm: A Data-Driven Guide to Better Decision Making in the Early School Years. I, like many millennial parents, find Oster to be a great sherpa in parenting. She provides data, gives you methods for assessment in your own life, and then empower you to act. I read her first two books and loved them. I’m not thrilled with the whole “turn your family into a business” framing of this book, but the actual advice is sound.
I see a lot of book covers in my line of work. I appreciate well-designed work. This is the first cover in ages that completely stopped me in my tracks. This is a thing of beauty. The styling, the graphic design, the hint of story - it’s utter perfection. [Bookshop.org] If you like The Weekly Wrap, I think you'll love Weekly Filet. Every Friday, Weekly Filet delivers a selection of great things to read, watch, and listen to. If you like to see the world and yourself from new perspectives, this one is for you. You probably don’t need another Wordle spin-off in your life. I know I certainly don’t. That said, I’ve fallen hard for Framed. It takes the Wordle format and asks you to identify a movie using stills from the film. So far, I’ve seen a film from the 80s, a modern blockbuster, an Oscar Best Picture winner, and a black and white Chaplin flick. I’m going to force myself to make some headway the qualitative transcript coding my research project. You’re a free subscriber to The Weekly Wrap. For the full experience, become a paid subscriber.
