About this Blog

I am calling this blog “This Reading Life”  because I have realized that many of my expectations and guides for living, for better or for worse, comes from books and reading. My topics will range from various fiction (mostly, I read literary novels and memoir, though occasionally I like to read some fantasy and “popular” literature) to health (nutrition especially) to parenting to women’s issues, particularly birth activism, self-help, and spirituality (particularly Buddhism & Taoism).
