I’m reading “All Her Little Secrets”.

One By One by Ruth Ware. On a totally different note I finished Code Talker last weekend and it was fascinating.

Moonflower Murders by Anthony Horowitz. Delicious whodunit in the style of Agatha Christie.

Just finished The Invisible Valley by Su Wei, which is a wonderfully weird book set in late 60s China, about a student sent to work on a "re-education" project in the backwoods who accidentally gets married to a ghost. Not sure what to go for next.

Here’s a hypothetical:

Company considers the woman a riskier bet due to possibility she’ll take maternity leave — and considers the man less risky for his ineligibility to take as much leave. 🤷

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)

This was the most pertinent book which I picked after getting rejected from all of MBB at the resume stage or never hearing back from boutiques like OW despite getting in all the networking, resume review sessions and referrals in. The frustration only intensifies absurdism lol.
In hindsight, Existentialists are not the best people to read during dwindling confidence xD. Great book though otherwise
