i can only imagine what society would be like if tolstoy ever got to the point

i didn't know what to expect with this book just bc i didn't know what could come out of another story in this universe, but i really liked it! just like "they both die at the end," this was a surprisingly sweet look at the concept of death

really makes me wonder what i would do if i knew it was my last day

i love u love and i love u bell hooks

so. good. im. screaming.

so glad that andrés ordorica came to ic to read his new novel, bc it meant that i got the chance to discover it and devour it

there were some things that i kinda wish i didn't know going into this novel (but knew bc of what was discussed at the reading), but it didn't detract from my experience at all

lovely, book. hmu if any of u wanna borrow!

this book taught me that i dont really care abt the history of venice

well it really is a dark play

also a man play

really interesting premise!

i didn't realize this would be a book about grief until i found i needed one

cute, sweet, nostalgic

lets go directing ii play!

it took me a second to really get into this play, but by the end i was INVESTED

idk if the modern vernacular really worked for this play, but i liked the message and i thought there were some great lines in it!

this one was...hard to get into ngl

i liked the first one in this series, but maybe olivie blake just isn't for me

such a cool project!

not what i usually find myself reading but very sweet and heartwarming :)

"Dramaturg? The holy grail of American theater titles.
What is that?
No one knows."

such a sweet, sad story

cute merging of the universes!

i picked up this book bc i found it in a bookshop in virginia and it featured my hometown :)

i wish i knew more about the characters by the end, but i still had a good time reading!

so real

soooo english women in the 90s

cute ending!

very serious subject matter, but wright uses such a whimsical tone that makes for an easy read

also.. so interesting to see someone write about the future of plagues from their comfy seat in 2017!!!

told through poetry so fun!!! quite a few of the poems felt like they were the same to me though

anthropomorphic animals <3

it took a second to get into it, but i love to learn!!!

oh my god i love this trilogy

so so so so so so so good

OH MY GOD SO GOOD

jillian recommended this one, and now im recommending it to my two (2) friends on this website

historical fiction and also heartbreaking

this was recommended to me by a friend back home! it is soooooooo girlhood

i won an uncorrected advance proof of this book, and i liked it!

it was a bit long, and i'm not sure how i feel about the actual romance between nelly and jay, but i still liked the mystery :)

it would be cool to see this in real life! i have questions
