Hmm, sure. Thanks for trusting me enough to ask; don’t trust me too much, though. I'm always learning and strongly criticizing my past/previous perspectives. Something I say often, though: I actually spend much more time reading essays and journal articles, rather than full-length books.
My reading skews more towards history/enviro humanities/geography, but in terms of ecology-adjacent stuff, subjects that i read about: human relationships with other-than-human creatures; extinction; environmental history of empires, imperialism, colonization; traditional ecological knowledge; resistance, fugitivity, and carceral geography; Anthropocene, Capitalocene, Plantationocene; ruins, ruination, haunting, trauma, and emotional geography; islands, the sea, Oceanic worldviews, archipelagic thinking, solidarity across islands/regions; frontiers, borderlands, hinterlands, sacrifice zones, wastelanding, social abandonment, and extraction zones; Indigenous geography/ontology.
