Or when your team is talking about books from the Summer Reading Guide.

I don't know.

I just love it.

I think part of it is just the ritual of a summer for me and a summer break from work.

And so being able to connect...

fun reading into that.

So when I heard that it was time for the new summer reading guide to come out, I was like, I'm just going to go back and look at all of the books that I have in my old printed copies of the summer reading guide.

And I'm just going to do it.

I'm going to treat myself for this day.

And I'm going to fill out the application and see what happens.

We've done it a few years now, and I think the first time, maybe I took the day off of work, and we did the morning version together live, and we just bring some tasty snacks together and fun things.

like coffee drinks and just take notes while it's happening.

And then we talked about it after the last couple of years, we haven't been able to watch it live, which means that then we watch it together, the recording, and then we pause it after every section and talk about every section.

So basically double the time that we spend talking about books and the summer reading guide.

And it's really fun having a group that we know each other's reading tastes now.

And we know what we like.

from the summer reading guide.

So we know which overlapping books that we think will like between the three of us.

Yeah.

So I, this was another fun thing is I just dug through my house to find all of the printed reading guides that I had saved.
