I picked up this short story collection on a whim, having never read Moore before. These are fantastic. So dry and witty and all within the theme of self-help, interpreted in many ways. I‘ll be reading more of her short stories for sure.

Going a different way with today‘s #Royals prompt; a list of Lorde‘s favorite books, link below. Books are a good way to live a fantasy. The tagged book is one off it that‘s also on my TBR.
“And baby, I'll rule (I'll rule, I'll rule, I'll rule)
Let me live that fantasy”

Thank you @Eggs & @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks for a fun month of prompts that I actually kept up with! 🖤🤍
Help!! I am in desperate need of a lovely gentle book! Preferably a novel. Looking for something beautiful and restores my faith in the world. Thanks for helping my mental health.
Next up in the lineup... essays! I haven‘t read many essay collections until recently and I have to say that I‘m loving the genre. Bite size stories that keep me coming back for more. 👍🏻😊
Many of Lorrie Moore's short stories are HILARIOUS, in a slow-burn, slightly dark, brilliantly witty sort of way. Moore is definitely my favorite short story writer—if you haven't read her yet, Self-Help is a great place to start (if a short novel is more your style, Who Will Run the Frog Hospital? may very well be my favorite book of all time!). #lorriemooreevangelism #funnybooks #augustofpages
