i love vonnegut!!

i will finish it this week i promise

thought daughtering

shoutout suad for the rec

love when authors write about books, i need to read hemingway

i was telling asmaa about this book and she was like “so between the world and me but for white people” and yeah basically

i’m embarrassed it took me this long to read this book

when toni morrison says something is required reading, you have to read it!

getting through this slowly but surely. and yes i’m reading three books at once, leave me alone

he describes dubai as “the mostly empty, half-built construction site it always was” so i already love this book

i’m only one chapter in, but it’s really well written so far and so so heartbreaking. i feel like i’ve been pretty apathetic to american politics for the past year or so and coming off of this election season i’m realizing it was never actually apathy it was just anger- like instead of talking about anything meaningful regarding gun violence during her campaign harris just made jokes about being a gun owner

so much valuable info and this book def was an instrumental part of the reform we’re seeing now in elite women’s gymnastics, i have so many thoughts but i’ll save them for when i finish reading

the first time i really experienced grief was about a year and half ago and i think similarly to the author i correlated whatever was going on at that time to the profound sadness i felt and that sadness was one i never wanted to forget or get over and that led me to holding on to friendships or things that had developed over that time long after they had run their course, we live and we learn

this is actually not good so far like the main character is a HATER and not even in an entertaining way
