Socrates in Love - Beautiful Disturbances
An episode in which M talks about a book you've probably never heard of because foreign literature seldom makes it into the US market and even when a book is... Good like finding it. But Socrates in love is one of M's favorite books, so she wants to talk about it.

Within the Wires (Revisited) - Things Worth Caring about (is M one of them?)
M revisits Within the Wires and also the darkest recesses of her mind that she otherwise tries to avoid. You know the kind, the one where you keep all those horrible things about yourself that you are too nervous to confront directly. There (and now here) M keeps the reason why she's remained single for so long as well as her thoughts on the one person she has ever fallen in love with.

Five Centimeters per Second - Is That a Good Speed?
