What are you reading?
If you’re joining us for tonight’s reading party in the Fireside Room at the Sorrento, what are you bringing to read?
If you’re joining tonight’s party virtually — click here for the link to the live broadcast — I’d love to know what you’re reading as well.
Even if you’re not attending tonight’s reading party, I’d still love to know what you’re reading!
Tell me in the comments.
I’m reading The Iliad because I’m taking a class on it right now from Daniel Mendelsohn and NYRB. Honestly, I don’t love The Iliad. Spears ripping apart shoulders, helmets ripping off heads… but I’m finally tackling it. Maybe the bloodshed will warm me up as it snows outside.
I highly recommend the book I was reading last week: The Loves of My Life by Edmund White. Deeply brilliant, sexually shocking, light, funny, and true. Arguably the best book so far of the 21st century.

Don’t forget to add it to the comments. I get the best ideas about what to read next from these comment threads.

Sadly, I’m reading “Strongmen.” Ruth Ben-Ghiat. Frightening, but so well done.
I’m listening to Billie Jean King’s 2023 memoir All In - very good so far. She helped change tennis, sports, and women’s rights so much!
