3. I normally prefer physical books and support my local library.

However, since the pandemic, I've made the switch to using Libby to borrow books. It's just more convenient for me right now.

My first experience with Mr. Berry was his essay, A Citizen’s Response to the National Security Strategy

and I have read others of his essays, but not all yet. Fortunately, there's a large body of his work available.

I was delighted to come across Hannah Coulter, and then to see he'd written this single series of fiction. It took me away to a different place during a very turbulent time.

I love him very much. He's the one person I've looked up to who hasn't in any way disappointed me.

Edited to correct typo.
