I wrote about a bunch of books that have helped me to understand Chicago since I moved here. Though there are several more I couldn't include, and more still I maybe should have included but haven't read yet
This is my favorite sentence of the day h/t @dlknowles:
"When you include the suburbs [Chicago] becomes “Chicagoland”, which conjures up ideas of a theme park where none of the hotdogs has ketchup."

Fantastic. I shall put these on my reading list. Been here 23 years and still trying to understand the place better than I do.
(And still have regrets I never managed to meet @vahavb when she had your post.)
