GETTING DICKED DOWN ON PAGE 5 ALREADY ? (excuse my language i'm baffled)

i have VERY mixed thoughts about this

i too might fuck around and write the most heartwrenching events that happened in my life to pass down to a friend i have gotten close too only recently. spicing up life a little bit 😌

i have finally created a youtube channel and i am beyond excited to post on it !! my account is @persephoneofalexandria and i have already posted a video on the books i am bringing to paris if you are interested !!! (russian literature, nabokov and delightful french books) <3

we got a (stupid) change of logo before half stars rating, where is this world going

i ran to the woods under the snow today after reading her beautiful verses on her love for nature !!! praise be to mary oliver

i want this book to last forever

hey so this book might be changing the very fabric of my brain and reality ??

i hate finals i hate finals i hate finals i just want to read

this boy makes me laugh so hard, someone get him a Valium i think he needs it

sometimes all you want is to go to museums, bookstores and cafés with a friend and gossip about anything and everything whilst still holding intellectual and brilliant conversation

(it is my version of manifesting a new friend in Paris, do not mind me)

you know life is a mess when you start re-reading normal people

when i say i would read elena ferrante's grocery list you know i mean it

i created a little amazon wishlist just in case any lovely soul would be so kind as to fund my obsession !!
the link is in my bio now <3

(knowing how i'm now fully independent because of hectic family relationships but still a medical student who's not able to work full time, reading and buying books feels more like a luxury than before, so if anyone would love to help, it would be much appreciated ...)

all i have to say for now is that the chapter headings are so pretty 🤭

let it be known, i totally stalk your little instagrams in secret everytime i find it in your bios <3

he didn't just verbatim tell her that he was happy she was insecure because it made him feel like he could have a chance with her. i must be dreaming

"And I know I look good in the gray leggings, brown boots, and tight burgundy turtleneck I chose for this night"

what in the tumblr 2014 era outfit is that ? and for a reading at Politics and Prose ??? girl. be serious for a second

he literally thought « i could say i’m mentally preparing a brilliant apology » but instead i’m looking at « her boobs. both of them »

i’m done with men. especially this one

"Your mother left me because I slept with her best friend. My personality had nothing to do with it"
hum what the hell

why is that everytime i put a book in "currently reading" i am exponentially less likely to actually finish the book ???
it doesn't even psychologically make sense for god's sake

"I worried that my decision to abstain from self-destruction was turning me into a bore"
felt like a kick right in the solar plexus 🙃

i will reiterate, that 5000 friends limit is the second stupidest thing on this app, if not the entire world (the first one of course being the inability to give half stars)

choose your friends wisely kids, mine is literally making me read filthy bakery smut 😭

i'm begging on my knees rebecca, more showing less telling, it hurts my soul that there's no subtlety in that book 😭

we love to see a boy with male hysteria, poor nerves and a weak disposition <3

i'm giving amanda lovelace ONE last chance, if it ends up being bad i will simply abandon 🙂

some shameless self-promotion, but here's my bookstagram account (@ofbooksandart) if you want to talk about books, art, studies or life in general <3
