Welcome to the Books And Articles newsletter. Thanks for all of the quality posts.
The usual suspects provided the territory’s top posts this week. @plebpoet created a seasonal meditation video which I really enjoyed. You can hear her talk about it on this week’s SNL live.
@denlillaapan had three of the top posts this week, led by his latest installment of the Jordan Peterson Bookclub. It’s always worth checking out @denlillaapan posts.
@cryotosensei gave us a deep look into a Japanese book store. I have always loved book stores, and they aren’t too many left where I’m from. I really appreciated the post and the many photos.
Happy reading!
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.

This is another great post by @Bit_Alb that didn’t get the attention it deserved. It is a book review of “The Transparency Society.” I really hope we see more posts and reviews from @Bit_Alb. This one is worth your time.

if you subscribe to the territory you never miss a thing :)
I was thinking of you when Darth started talking about One Hundred Years of Solitude. Are you watching the series? Were you a fan of the book?
haha i thought of myself too! well i was just speaking with a friend last night about Marquez as well as Pablo Neruda and Octavio Paz, I was lucky to come across them in my literature studies, but I didn't take as much time with Marquez as with the others.
I'm currently getting through Silicon Valley, so I hope to start it next!
I am going to rewatch Silicon Valley when I'm done with this series. I enjoyed it so much, and I really want to convince my wife to watch it too. I am still surprised it didn't run another season or two. Those characters still stick with me. Did you watch the videos of TJ Miller at PubKey? He was doing some promos for bitcoin pizza day. Someone told me he was a regular there.
oh man I didn't know that, would be crazy to bump into him. The worst character, in my opinion lol
