Y’all don’t know how long I’ve needed this exact kind of book

“On the foundation of his knowledge civilization had been built. Prometheus’ words, deep-running as roots, had waited in me all this time.

‘We bear it the best we can,’ I said.”

“If you had asked me, I would have said I was happy. Yet always I remembered.

Cold smoke, marked with my name.”

“The thought was this: that all my life had been murk and depths, but I was not a part of that dark water. I was a creature within it.”

Before I begin, it is worth nothing that A LONG WAY IS MY NOT JUST MY FAVORITE BOOK BUT ALSO MY BIBLE

Reading this book on an empty stomach was a mistake !

“It is a lazy thing to not know whose world you live in”

I’ve been thinking about that exact fact since Hidden Figures.

This book is delicious 😄

What a good book for my first reread

I’m listening to the audiobook this time :)
