Flipping through pages upon pages upon pages. . I’m almost done with I Am Yours and Normal People. I’m making head way on NW, but have put a pause on The Lonely City and Orlando.

Reading “I Am Yours” a memoir turned call to action by @reemazaman, which was gifted to me by @amberjackpublishing (thank you!). I am excited to share a full review with you guys later in the week, but until then here are some thoughts: I’m about half way through and loving it. Zaman’s prose is beautiful, sweeping me up and taking me on an unforgettable ride. Each page is a combination of heartbreak and empowerment as she navigates life and learns to find her voice. . I am so excited to see where the rest of this book takes me. What are you reading on this Monday? Let me know below! . #partner #IAmYours #ReemaZaman #AmberJackPublishing

“She likes to read, she reads all the time, and she prefers to be reading several things at once, she says it gives endless perspective and dimension.” —Ali Smith, Autumn . Shhh, don’t tell anyone...I’m reading all three of these right now, plus I Am Yours by Reema Zaman and Orlando by VW. . I’m in a restless place in my life right now: waiting for graduation, to move back home, to start looking for jobs, to start being a “real” adult, but I have to be patient, stay at school, do school work, go to class, go to work. I think that’s why I’ve been reading so many books at once—I’m restless for a different situation, a different perspective, a different dimension to the world in limbo I seem to be living in. So, I’ve been enjoying dipping in and out, opening here and there, and letting the words and worlds of each take me where they will. . (Disclaimer: I know I’ll miss college. I know I’ll miss it so much already that I’m planning on going back to grad school a year from August, but right now I’m craving the time off, to step away, to do something different.)

This isn’t a new photo and these aren’t the books I’m reading, but I got some sad family news today and I am struggling with it more than I thought I would. So instead of wallowing, I wanna hear about you all; tell me something about you, like: How are you doing? What are you reading? What is your favorite “pick-me-up” book? What are you happy about today? What makes your heart full? What’s your favorite daydream? Tell me whatever you would like below 💗💗💗 . . A few of my answers: -I’m currently in the middle of NW, The Lonely City, and Orlando -my favorite pick-me-up right now is Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. It always makes me smile and remember my old self. -looking at pictures of my dog, Bingley, makes me happy every single day. -writing makes my heart full. I love losing myself in stories as I sit in front of a blank paper -I love daydreaming about travel. Particularly to the UK or moving to NYC one day.
