[changeofthemoon]

Putting together my reading list for the summer to hopefully be in a better spot for proposal writing come Fall. So far I requested these at the library:





So here's the full list. I suppose the order will depend on what I can get from the library and how much depressing non-fiction I can handle before I go batty.
