If you are looking for a linear narrative, you won‘t find it here. These sparkling vignettes told by a generous, sparkling, and restless soul are beautiful to behold while sometimes feeling hard to follow. May she rest in love and beauty.

Kendzior always writes beautiful prose that has a hint of melancholy for the future we no longer have. I loved this because it is a love letter to America and like she says, you love the good parts and tell the truth about the bad that way your love is honest.

Yesterday‘s op shop purchases after my 3 hours of ballet for the grand total of $39. So relaxing. Nowhere to be and the only thing to do was go home for a wine and a stretch and seafood salad for lunch. Love my weekends.

Rolo and I are enjoying the tagged before summer temps make it impossible to enjoy the outside. Kendzior is an amazing writer and it feels right to read this in the outdoors.

This book. 💔 I love memoirs written in unique ways, and I love Sarah Moss‘ fiction; learning about her life experiences gave insights into some of the components of her novels. She so accurately captured for me the relationship between body, food and control, and how the line past which you‘ve taken it too far can be easy to cross. I loved all the discussions of works by female writers. The audio was fantastic.

sarahbarnes @youneverarrived it was definitely intense at times and I can see why you did that. Hopefully you like it if you get back to it. 💕 2w

We only have one dog at the moment and have never had three at a time; THIS USA “MOTHER” Day, I am thinking of all my kids, my canine kids; they are top of mind 💖 Reading this because…. I somehow love a good grief story. Pic is Copper with my “new” iris from a neighbor. #DogsofLitsy #CopperBopper #WHPG #GriefLit

Pictures of myself are hard. This book was hard. I wish things could be different for her, for me, for my mother & sister & grandmother & aunts. Until then I‘m going to do what Moss does: send a good, bright wolf back in time to provide exactly what is needed ❤️ I‘m going to start by choosing to love the body that houses me

StaceGhost @AmyG you are so kind! And that‘s T Swift looking moody with a cat and a guitar— it was the most gothic merch I could find lol we were presenting at our graduate symposium on Swift scholarship and they took about 10k pictures of all of us 💀 ⚰️ 🪦 2mo

Thanks @Megabooks for putting this one on my radar. I finally got around to reading it a year later! Cameron Russell is a model and recounts her experiences with creeps and feelings of guilt for the unsavory nature of the fashion industry and her profits. She discusses her political activities and relationship with her mother. A quick listen!

Megabooks I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this! 2mo
Chrissyreadit My daughter has had some amazing experiences with modeling- many of the sets have been amazing- and I know it is because of the hard work of the models that came before her. I was terrified when she began tbh. 2mo
