I'm currently wading through Salman Rushdie's Quichotte. Loving it, but I'm not making enough reading time available to myself, so it's not at great pace.

More importantly, I like to think I'm not gender-biased. But I do read more from male writer than from female ones. That said, I LOVE the books by Elif Shafak. I need to expand my reading. WIll work on that after finishing the one I'm reading now.

I will probably take some inspiration from the book I'm reading from now and then to my kids: Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls.

Impressive that you're reading Swedish now as well. Is that hard? I can sort of make sense of Danish as a Dutchie. But only the written version. The way the Danes pronounce their language confuses me.

Yes. The research is fascinating, and the book is well-written. Although every now and then I hit a paragraph that requires several readings. If you're interested in neuroscience and our amazing brain, I highly recommend it. I'm a little more than half way through the book. I probably need to squeeze a good fiction book in after this one.
