It has been a while since I consumed a book. Paper makes my sick anymore. I think they changed their chemical processing. I'm slowly working on the latest stormlight archive book, as well as a new one, *When the Moon Hatched* I'm too early into it to say how it is.

Per my mother, then mentally when my kids were of that age: "you have to have growing room" When I was 13 I went from a size 9 to a size 11. I stayed there until my early 20s when I jumped again to a 14/15 depending on the brand.

Bike Riding Direction

It depends. If there is a bike path or shoulder wide enough for a bike, you ride with traffic. If there is neither, you ride against traffic. In a city, it is slightly different as there are typically multiple lanes for traffic, making it easier for drivers to pass bikes.
