If you have a little bit longer

Here are some things we enjoy

Watching


We watched the Meyerowitz Stories last week and collectively screamed with delight at the combination of our favorite people on screen. We don’t think there’s ever been a film where Adam Sandler hasn’t yelled and this is no different. If you’ve ever tried to park in Manhattan you’ll enjoy the first scene.

We also saw the new Joan Didion Documentary at Metrograph this week, sobbed our stinking eyes out. Behind every great book of hers there has been a hidden deeply personal journey and this film showcased that.

We’ve been watching the new trailer for Greta Gerwig's directorial debut because she’s a badass and we loved 20th Century Women and Frances Ha.

Reading


This article made us really think about a generation being shaped by a smart phone and what that really means for [reads] and the little humans we’re responsible for.

We’ve also been partnering with Article One for a new collaboration called Farsighted— for people who need glasses by people who love books. Read our Interview with Alison Roman .

Listening


Technology and innovation is very important to us as we build out [reads], we’re listening to this new podcast The future according to now.
 

[reads] offline


We’ve been having an emotional few weeks (really feeling our feelings in a big way) we’re reading A Little Life , and Homegoing and if you haven't read A Little Life we're here for you, to provide all the hugs and emotional support you need. Yanagihara really explores the dynamics of male friendships and what it means to be scared, vulnerable and afraid. 

We’re growing [reads] into a smart business and so we’re taking notes from Intercom on Starting Up.

We went to the September show for Generation Women! “Fake news, what we’ve stopped believing.” Our dear friend Georgia Clarke curates a phenomenal group of women each month from 6 generations and it’s spectacular! This month’s theme is ‘The skin I’m in’ You can purchase tickets here .

We’re planning on going to Cory Robin's talk about the second edition of The Reactionary Mind with N+1 tonight at McNally Jackson see you there? The New Yorker has called it the book that predicted Trump so there's that.

This month we are hosting our first of many [reads] literary dinners with Durga Chew-Bose and her latest book ‘Too much not the mood’ . We’re gathering around a table to eat dinner together and to talk books. We still have a couple of tickets left, purchase one here !
