library

The three of us stopped at the library in Copley Square before going to the farmers market, so [personal profile] adrian_turtle could hand in her summer reading bingo card and get a(nother) free tote back, and so I could pick up a book I had on hold. While we were doing that, [personal profile] cattitude browsed the displays, saw a biography of Terry Pratchett, and checked it out.

At the farmers market, we got red raspberries, blueberries, and heirloom tomatoes. We then grabbed a slightly early lunch at Clover, because the branch across from Copley Square has outdoor tables and it was early enough to not be oppressively hot.

We had a zoom call with my mother scheduled for this afternoon, but she called about half an hour before the scheduled time and asked to postpone it until tomorrow, which we're doing. We didn't so much hurry home because of that appointment, as look at a clock and confirm we had more than enough time.

Is the biography A Life With Footnotes? I read that and liked it.

Came here to ask the same question; I also read and enjoyed it.

If that's A Life With Footnotes it's on the Hugo 'Best Related' shortlist. I enjoyed it very much, but it's very much a public facing biography, and won't suit everyone.
