Home crush

Going through my "desktop sort as of 19 July" file I came across pictures I had saved of Adam Levine's Hollywood Hills home from Architectural Digest.

Summer loveliness, it would be lovely to have this garden, but maybe not enough greenery for my personal preference.

Not sold enough on this that I would have it for myself, but I do enjoy the balcony, carpet, cushions, and coffee table decorations.

Gorgeous Bathroom! Love the marble, and the olive branch is lovely.

Goodreads Rabbit Hole

Looking for new reads, I fell down some rabbit holes on Goodreads, including into this very specific and niche list... Massachusetts Murders !

I also enjoyed the description of New Bedford, Massachusetts in the blurb of the book Shallow Graves: The Hunt for the New Bedford Highway Serial Killer - by Maureen Boyle:

New Bedford, Massachusetts, an old fishing port known as the Whaling City, where Moby Dick, Frederick Douglass, textile mills, and heroin-dealing represent just a few of the many threads in the community's diverse fabric.

Good cover too, reminds me of True Detective, which I haven't watched yet (but want to), but the poster is similar.

Interesting artwork

There was some interesting artwork on the wall behind this person being interviewed in a video I watched on youtube about cohousing. The title of the video can be seen in one of the images.
