This book is a web of artists' affairs, relationships, and friendships. It's absolutely fascinating - did you know Marilyn Monroe used her fame to get Ella Fitzgerald gigs? Or that Gore Vidal and James Baldwin had a fling?

Anais Nïn had so many lovers she has her own foldout page!

Perfect snow day. Finally starting The Wild Robot - one of the best book covers of 2016, hands-down.

this is what winter break was made for

wrapping presents
eating donuts
reading books

(all from my bed, of course)

"And so I fell in love with a color - in this case, the color blue - as if falling under a spell, a spell I fought to stay under and get out from under, in turns."

(and so I fell in love with this book)
