Djamilla’s Recent Updates

Half His Age by Jennette McCurdy
"Tapping out @ 72%. While this whole book is designed to make people feel uncomfortable and to be graphic, I fear we've crossed a line and it's making my skin crawl reading a specific scene. Will try to pick up again later because I only have 80 pages" Read more of this review »
Self-Reliance by Ralph Waldo Emerson
"
"Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind."


This isn't a book (it's an essay) and it isn't exactly a review (more like my general thoughts) but I read this around 10 days ago and I've been sitting with my thoughts ever since tr" Read more of this review »

Decent short story collection. I’m not really familiar with some of the folkloric inspirations (like the stripper story), but I appreciate the new takes on monsters like the manananggal. There were quite a few stories where the monsters were women, a ...more

The Resurrectionist by A. Rae Dunlap
"Another 6-star read for me!


This book follows a lad who ventures out into another place to enroll as a medical student in a university. Unfortunately, due to circumstances, his family could not afford to send him allowances for his lodgings and payme" Read more of this review »
Losers by Harley Laroux
"Again, knew what I was getting into lol. But this was a good conclusion to this! I liked watching how the relationships progressed and how the plot was slightly more relevant with Manson’s father. The ending was adorable and it was just a no brainer " Read more of this review »

Sohn Won-Pyung
“Ordinary . . .” I mumbled. To be like others. To be ordinary without having experienced terrible ordeals. To go to school, graduate, and if lucky, go to college and get an okay job and meet a woman I like and get married and have kids . . . things like that. Put differently, to not stand out.”
― Won-pyung Sohn, Almond

Anne Carson
“All myth is an enriched pattern,
a two-faced proposition,
allowing its operator to say one thing and mean another, to lead a double life.
Hence the notion found early in ancient thought that all poets are liars.
And from the true lies of poetry
trickled out a question.

What really connects words and things?”
― Anne Carson, The Beauty of the Husband: A Fictional Essay in 29 Tangos

T.J. Klune
“We should always make time for the things we like. If we don't, we might forget how to be happy.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

T.J. Klune
“We get trapped in our own little bubbles, and even though the world is a wide and mysterious place, our bubbles keep us safe from that. To our detriment.” She sighed. “But it’s so easy because there’s something soothing about routine. Day in and day out, it’s always the same. When we’re shaken from that, when that bubble bursts, it can be hard to understand all that we’ve missed.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

Nina Varela
“If the universe were static, I could stand anywhere in this world and I swear my line of sight would end on you. I swear I'd find you in the dark.”
― Nina Varela, Iron Heart
