Loving the view much more than the book - I loved Forty Rooms so hard that maybe disappointment was inevitable?

This is my July birthday book so I‘m hoping to finish it before the month ends (I get twelve books for my birthday each year - one for each month). Treated myself to a new ring today and am spending more time admiring the stone (Rosetta Jasper) than reading. #spoiled
Dear book: I‘d love to stay in bed and read you but the long weekend is over 😭😭😭

And my last post! Top left, moving clockwise: Ani Difranco, The National, Death Cab for Cutie, & Vampire Weekend!
Y'all, if you ever have the chance to hear Matt Berninger of The National sing live in person, you best go do it! His voice is perfect. His band is pure talent. They actually sound better live than on album! So phenomenal! Ani was wonderful, interacting w/ the audience a ton, & the other two were solid!

Top to bottom: Cursive, Two Gallants, The Get Up Kids
All three of these are some of my favorite bands and they put on some of my favorite shows! They all happened to be at smaller venues, so I had the opportunity to meet them all, except for Cursive(though I did meet their openers, Beach Slang, which is an absolutely wonderful pop punky type band!)

Left to right: G-Dragon, Elton John, & Childish Gambino!
G is a Korean rapper that I love. It was one of the most dynamic shows I've ever been too! Total shock he came to Houston! Elton was a last minute invite from a friend. The show was phenomenal, I absolutely cried! One of the best gifts ever! Gambino is a hands down fave. He is an incredible performer! I took my son with me as his high school graduation gift!
My first #LiveMusicLove post includes, from top to bottom: L7, Mephiskapheles, & The Wombats.
I never got to see L7 as a teen, but about 2 years ago they came into town & I got to fulfill one of my teenage dreams! Mephiskapheles is a satanic ska band I loved & saw live as a teen. For their first show back to Houston in nearly 20 years, I sure as hell made sure I was there! The Wombats was a gift. Their performance was stellar.

Play along with @vivastory and me! We'll be sharing a series of some of our favorite concerts we've attended! Share some of your favorites too. I know we're not the only bookworms who are passionate about music! #LiveMusicLove
I helped cull my list by only sharing shows that I've personally taken pictures at. Otherwise, my series would be WAY too long!
It was a great evening. Such a nice atmosphere and really great music 😍💕
New additions to the TBR. I promised myself that these are the last books I will buy for myself this year. I've got an addiction!!!
When he came home that night, pale squares of windows swam through the darkness; the sky was already holding its frosted breath in anticipation of a new day.
