Link Round Up | Friday Reads

Currently Reading

Bridge of Spies – Giles Whittel (audiobook) – super interesting look at a spy exchange during the cold war, and the careers that led up to it.

Leviathan – Scott Westerfield (ebook) – World War I steampunk. So cool!

Death at Victoria Dock  – Kerry Greenwood (ebook) – the next Phyrne Fisher novel. I’m enjoying the books but I think I actually may prefer the show.

Links I’m reading/emailing/tweeting to everyone 

If you haven’t ever read Anne Helen Peterson’s pop culture coverage, may I direct you to her piece on Angelina Jolie’s masterful PR strategy.

Being the New York Times food critic. And for a #TBT, that Guy Fieri restaurant review (bookmark for referencing on bad days).

The Rumpus last week, on You’ve Got Mail aka the best movie ever. Do not fight me on this.

This week I’m listening to…

In addition to my audiobook, I’ve been catching up on Criminal. It has a similar tone to This American Life, but looks at a different crime each week.
