Friday Question of the Day – Summer Book Recommendations?

Some folks have been sharing book recommendations in the rant/revel posts and since it’s beach season – I’m ready for this year’s summer reading recommendations from PoPville. We got some great recommendations last year.

While not the most traditional beach read, I just started The American Porch An Informal History of an Informal Place by Michael Dolan. So far it is awesome.

I’m also gonna recommend a book from one of our own. PoPville contributor and Petworth resident Eric Nuzum has a new memoir coming out in early August called GIVING UP THE GHOST: A Story About Friendship, 80s Rock, a Lost Scrap of Paper, and What It Means to Be Haunted. I was lucky to get an advance copy and it is a terrific read.

So for today’s FQotD – what are you reading this summer? Have any good beach read recommendations?

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
