Every year I stack up the books as I read them, take a picture at the end of the year, and then give most of them away, so I can start anew. This is what I read in 2024. Love your thoughts on any of them, and any recommendations for 2025. #readingisfundamentaltofightingfascism

There was a year when Maine had 4 Governors? Yes, there was. Feel free to guess the year below. Otherwise, watch "In The Arena" at storystudio.wmtw.com/inthearena/ to find out about this tidbit in Maine history. @patcallaghan6.bsky.social @wmtwchannel8.bsky.social @terrystackhouse.bsky.social

New episode of In The Arena up soon. Here's a tease where we discuss @susancollins.bsky.social and how formidable Gov. Janet Mills might be as a challenger. @patcallaghan6.bsky.social @wmtwchannel8.bsky.social
