November 8, 2019, Friday evening -- Reading Elizabeth Kolbert

In the Mission District

She is reading The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History, by Elizabeth Kolbert. She's reading it for her book club at work. Coincidentally, I also recently read this book for a book club that I'm in, too. 

Her favorite author is Kurt Vonnegut and of his books her favorite is Slaughterhouse-Five. She's read it over and over. It's a quick read. The last time she read it was about two years ago.

Something else good she read recently was the novel Steps, by Jerzy Kosiński, which was published in 1968 and won U.S. National Book Award for Fiction. She described it as fun.
