What I’m Reading, Watching, and Listening To, Early October 2024

Clip art of headphones, TV screen, and cat reading a sheet of paperReading: Books to review, along with my current craft book, Millions of Suns by M.C. Benner Dixon and Sharon Fagan McDermott. Each of the two authors has an essay before the exercise for each chapter, and they’re all wonderful essays combined with stories from their lives, thus far!

Watching: While we were sick, we finished season 3 of Bridgerton, and we’re looking forward to season 4!

Listening To: The usual K-pop. Gotta absolutely recommend “Instead” by Xdinary Heroes, though. XH aren’t your normal K-pop group–they’re K-rock, though their music often has a poppy feel to it. This song, however, does NOT. It feels like the best of 90s or early 00s Cookie Monster metal. (The Cookie Monster vocals are provided by someone who is not a member of the group.) Also, it’s entirely in English. My “kids” (Stick and Red) enjoyed it, both of them finding aspects that reminded them of what they were listening to in the 00s, primarily.
