Sproid stopped reading Cuando era puertorriqueña by Esmeralda Santiago (Vintage español)
If you like fiction stories about isekai (character being transported or reincarnated into a fantasy world or parallel universe) and inevitably ask yourself if you would remember any useful knowledge to bring and apply to a less develop civilization like much protagonists do? My answer is probably not. So I bought this book. So far the book is very amusing, entertaining, and educational.

Otherwise great overall message and brings awareness of the small rituals that everybody do, or can do living a secular life. Life is full of meaning.
Sproid started reading The Magic of Reality by Richard Dawkins
Recently, my child started asking the existential questions and I knew I needed to get my hands on this book. This book helps reorganize my answers and give more or better examples. I also notice is an easy reading probably with pre-teens reading comprehension in mind.

"Independence days are not biological like birth or death. They are not astronomical like the solstices and the equinoxes. But they spring from the same human impulses that fuel scientific discovery. Political revolutions and scientific breakthroughs require the same unwillingness to accept authority on blind faith. They are born out of the same question: Why are things as they are? They celebrate our ability to evolve in the figurative sense." --Sasha Sagan
