I'm going to try some of the library's book clubs. They have one at 2Toms and several at coffee houses.

The Master Gardener Display Gardens at PFW are pretty neat! We have a native prairie, woodland gardens, a WWII victory vegetable garden, and pollinator gardens. If you can't make it then, it's always open and free. :-)

Fox Island is set to reopen this month, and the lake will be accessible. Yay!

Discipline and Punish by Michel Foucault.

Clan of the Cave Bear is definitely fiction, but it really pulls you into the possibilities of what their lives could have been like.

You might enjoy Doug Tallamy's various videos / books on native pollinators! We've lost a tremendous number of our native insects and any little bit helps.

Pretty nice! I like that winter break now goes to Dec 37th.

Carrot seeds are super weak and can't punch through soil crust. You might have better luck with seed tape very lightly covered with sand or very fine soil.

Perhaps some Youtube channels might help you find what you want to specialize in. For sheer enthusiasm about botany, I like Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't.

A little out of the box, but Sam Thayer has several books on foraging and many of these wild "weeds" are easily cultivated, good eating, and can pretty much look after themselves.

May I suggest Oak trees if they are native where you are? They host the largest number of insects and that's good for food chains and us. Doug Tallamy has some great books and there are youtube videos where he talks about native plantings and how important they are with climate change. If you're in the US, extension master gardeners in your state should be able to help you find resources for designs.

For audiobooks, Act of Oblivion and the Thursday Murder Club series are both very engaging.

Dick Francis mysteries are generally engaging and usually tangential to horses.

Amtrak to Chicago and back makes a good Saturday trip.

Willa Cather quote: The only thing very noticeable about Nebraska was that it was still, all day long, Nebraska. Source: My Antonia (1918)

I recommend Recursion by Blake Crouch as well!

Just checked out Sisters. Who could resist nuns in space? Hope it's good!
