“Justice is not guaranteed. It must be demanded. Not once. Not twice. But repeatedly... when we stand up as a larger collective and persevere together we can eventually wear down those in power to do what is right.”

I have this rule that I have to read the book before I see the movie.. can‘t wait to see this one at the end of February!

“Present Moment Awareness + Non-Judgement of Thoughts, Feelings, and Experiences = Mindfulness”

ending my day with my new mindfulness journal! just a few pages in and I already have a few new strategies to practice mindfulness for myself, and with my students, tomorrow 😌

still unsure about this book...

• The back and forth of Tessa and Hardin‘s relationship was repetitive, exhausting, and somewhat problematic. Very frustrating, and sad, to read.

• Parts of their relationships, some interactions they had didn‘t sit right with me.. yet I could not stop reading.

• I was also was not expecting how graphic this book would be!

But THE ENDING. Definitely need to read the sequel just because of that cliffhanger !!

currently listening to: The Last Black Unicorn. Love that it‘s read by Tiffany Haddish; I think I‘m enjoying the book much more because it‘s read by the author!

about to mail this one to a friend, I loved it so much! dragged a little bit at certain points, but overall a good read!
