THE SIRENS OF TITAN

by kurt vonnegut i spent so much of last year reading research based nonfiction that i forgot i could read for FUN and boy is this book a fkn ride quality, humorous science fiction written in the 50s. of course there are some unsavory snags because of the time period in which it was written, but all in all it's a fantastic cheeky commentary that feels as relevant today as it must've then. if u like sexy aliens, love (?) triangles, and anti-war comedy, this is a good one!

Sounds wild and broken by david george haskell

this book, written by biologist david george haskell tells the story of the evolution of sounds on earth. from the beginning to the present day, from the microbial life to the smallest (sometimes extinct) insects and the biggest animals and their evolutionary principles for making sounds! dr. haskell explains complex principles in a very understandable way. he talks about experiments he read about, partakes in, interesting facts to know and even small things he pays attention to in terms of sounds to be heard in nature and urban environments. a big part of the book's charm is the writer's genuine appreciation for life on earth. it showed me the importance of standing still and listening to the sounds around me.
