The Weekly Wrap - The Weekly Wrap #159
Like what you’re reading? Consider sharing it with a friend. I land firmly in the camp that language is always changing. Meaning shifts over time, new words arise, slang is fun, and rules are meant to be broken. Grammar and syntax are important but understanding matters more. I started reading This American Ex-Wife a few days ago. While I don’t agree with Lyz Lenz’s implications that all women should get divorced, I agree with her overall point. Marriage mostly helps men and can be a trap for women. Lenz’s writing is a mix of vulnerable, angry, and sarcastic. Reading this feels weirdly cathartic. *Books shared here are affiliate links for Bookshop.org
Look at this amazing picture my friend took! I’m so jealous of her night sky viewing options in Maine. [Not linking to maintain privacy] While I will never advocate to fake reading a book, sometimes you don’t have time to read something cover to cover. BookPecker provides summaries of over 14,000 titles. You can search for a title or browse by topic. The summaries are not linear recaps - they share the essence of the book. Final exams start this week. Requests for help are either feast or famine. You never know what you’re going to get each day. You’re a free subscriber to The Weekly Wrap.
