Sgt. Bryant Johnson, Justice Ginsburg’s personal trainer, honored her by doing push-ups in the U.S. Capitol, where Ginsburg is lying in state. For nearly 20 years, and throughout her battles with cancer, Ginsburg followed a demanding exercise regime at Johnson's instruction, leading her to describe him in a 2017 interview as 'the most important person' in her life.

Oh dear Nonny-who-calls-me-by-name, bold of you to assume I read those physical things with paper + covers! I love them, I really do, but/and the incredibly well-written AFTG fanfic out there has me deep under its spell. However, look: list o’ books!I love these three recently read YA works: 

The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas (If you see the movie, read the book too; they are complementary)

The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice + Virtue by Mackenzi Lee

Aristotle + Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Saenz (when is that sequel rolling out?!!)

Four of the non-fiction books I’m in the middle of:

So you want to talk about race by Ijeoma Oluo 

Women & Power by Mary Beard

The RBG workout by Bryant Johnson

Together is Better by Simon Sinek (the start with why guy)

On my wish list: 

Becoming by Michelle Obama

Decolonizing Wealth by Edgar Villanueva
