Yet another busy week but things have started to settle down, got back to reading properly yesterday and have reached the point where we get some interesting reveals. Very excited about where it goes from here.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

For details on the c/Books bingo challenge that just restarted for the year, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and its Recommendation Post. Links are also present in our community sidebar.

I think so, it's been an interesting read so far. It has talked about various styles and design patterns for different classes of wearers; how kimono makers have used celebrities of Kabuki theater to help advertise their products, along with using fashion books (marketing practices that still exist today); and the West's influence on kimono and Japanese culture as a whole after Commodore Perry's expedition to Japan.
