Not an optimist or a pessimist but a secret third thing where you look up at the sky and scream a lot

You know when you’re just sitting there minding your own business and you get like a full-body shiver out of nowhere? That’s a demon jumping in to possess you and then jumping right back out after he’s had a quick look around like nooooope

My favorite quote 😍🧐 📚💙 📚💡 📚⏰ #booksky #nonfiction #fluentforever

Just finished my reread of Fluent Forever by Gabriel Weber after making “Learn a New Language” a goal for 2025. Now the hard part - choosing what I want to learn first! #booksky #nonfiction #foreignlanguagestudy #fluentforever 📚💙 📚💡 📚⏰

Every. Single. Day. 😩🫠

One of my favorite audiobook narrations of all time is Mary by Nat Cassidy! While Susan Bennett really brought this book to life with all the characters, her Aunt Nadine is 👩‍🍳💋… 🎧📚 💙📚 🩸📚

Just finished “A Passionate Mind in Relentless Pursuit” and really enjoyed Noliwe Rooks’ insights as they related to Bethune’s life and pursuit of liberation. It’s a fantastic (and quick) read that will leave you wanting to research more about her efforts and general history! #booksky 💙📚 #nonfiction

I needed to see this at this exact moment in time. Framing the power of reading as a way to “refocus and lock in” instead of feeling like it is a distraction that keeps you from being able to achieve things big or small. 🥰📖 #booksky

I think one of my favorite lines from the article is “…there is also such a thing as having enough information.“ We all know it’s awful, now what are we going to DO about it?

“You can d­iscourse and quote-dunk and fact-check until you’re blue in the face…We don’t need any more irony-poisoned hot takes or cathartic, irreverent snark. We need to collectively decide what kind of world we actually do want, and what we’re willing to do to achieve it.”

I only completed one of the extra 500 books I started in January since my last reading update. I’ve read four books for the year so far 🥳 I like using multiple book tracking apps because I get to see subtly differences in how things are categorized. #booksky 💙📚

I went to reread Two Awesome Hours and was greeted by a note to myself… I can’t remember why I felt bullied by this book, but I’m about to find out (again) 😂😅😬 #booksky 💙📚 #nonfiction #productivity

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

You know when there’s only like 15 pages left in a book and nothing’s been solved and you get that weird closure anxiety like “okay there’s no way any of this is gonna be wrapped up in a way that makes any sense to me”…that’s what everything feels like all the time now

Practice walking into a room with the confidence of a vampire lord who has spent centuries planning what happens next 🧛🏻‍♂️

My husband also says I become loathsome at dark…. 🧛‍♀️😂😐 #booksky 💙📚

Between @thestorygraph.com and Fable here’s how my January is going so far! I’m hoping to finish at least one or two more books by Friday. #booksky 💙📚 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 Deadly Animals ⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Night Guest ⭐️⭐️ Universal Harvester

You either get it or you’re wrong.😜🖤 #HorrorTherapy #HorrorLover #YouWouldntGetIt

This book has me in a CHOKEHOLD! I’m only an hour in so far but it feel like 20 (in a good way). I have a few other Blake Crouch books collecting dust on my shelf while I ignore my TBR, but if this is the norm I’m gonna have to bump up a few of these novels because…….. 😳😱🤯🫠 #booksky #scifi 💙📚 🚀📚

At this point, I’d be happy being reincarnated as ANYTHING in a bookstore. With all my anger issues, I’m pretty sure I’d be the best milk steamer on a coffee machine. 😂 💙📚 #Booksky
