every time I see a person reading something cool in public I think we should bring back missed connections, like: “To the girl who was reading Eve Babitz alone at the Thai restaurant…are you local? Can we be friends?”

hi long time no post, but need to wish a happy pub day to one of my current reads!! she’s blurbed by Raven Leilani AND Kaveh Akbar so what are you waiting for…? @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social

threading my 2024 reading wrap-up 💖

everywhere my reading took me in 2024 💚

I’m convinced that the movie referenced in one of the opening scenes of Misrecognition is Call Me By Your Name which means I’m stuck picturing Timmy Chalamet for the rest of this book 🙃

going no contact with my in-laws in 2025 👋🏼 [my partner’s 11yo niece called me a book nerd at Christmas]

guess what time it is 💛 #intermezzo

I missed my rainbow shelves 💖

on my nightstand 🌙 #currentread

a hot new bookshelf has entered the villa ✨

this right here is my love language 💖

ok I love Terry Pratchett as much as the next person, but can a girl get some chapter breaks? The “entire book is one chapter” thing is not cute 🙃

would you believe me if I said this is my kitchen table? 💖

currently reading & listening ✨

manifesting a California tour stop ✨

it’s a good thing Spotify wrapped is coming out this week bc I’m about to listen to ‘doublewide’ 1000x in a row

the tree is up which means it’s officially Terry Pratchett season ✨ current read: Mort #booksky

I want to read poetry but every time I pick it up I feel like I am perhaps unqualified to read poetry…? 🙃
