A lot went wrong in 2018, so much that it was easy to lose sight of global improvements in the midst of incessant bad news. But while it may be hard to believe, 2018 was in many ways the best year yet to be a human living on Earth.

Nice! Friended you! I decided I wanted to read twenty books this year. If I can't do that, I died. Heck, it's still 1/1/19 and I finished Kernighan and Ritchie, not exactly a gripping page turner. :)

They don't even HAVE that book on that site. They have a much newer version, and technically I read both of those long ago anyway, so that feels a little disingenuous... Oooo! I should go try to find the French version on goodreads. Ha.
