Kristen’s LA Concert Calendar: 7/19-7/25

I tried to run a simple errand today, but I got distracted by a bookstore. I hadn’t been inside a bookstore in many a moon and the excitement born from being in the presence of so many books unread made me a little crazy. I spent enough time in the Fantasy section that I was able to assist two other people with recommendations before walking out with a small stack of selections for myself.  The big win was a copy of My Brilliant Friend by Elena Ferrante. I recently finished the entire 4-part series and already look forward to a re-read. If anyone needs a reading recommendation, The Neapolitan Series by Elena Ferrante is it.

If anyone is looking for a music recommendation, plenty of good stuff live at The Hotel Cafe this week, plus a couple exciting streams on itsaschoolnight Twitch and the debut album from Tones and I, Welcome To The Madhouse are all on my list:
