thanks to your suggestions, especially that of akykl, i just read for two uninterrupted hours! i completely lost myself in an old favorite, now i‘m 100 pages in and planning to finish it tonight 🥹 i‘m filled with nostalgia in the best way.
best part is, when i was trying to order the book online, i discovered there was a sequel i had never read and i’m so looking forward to learning more about this character, why i connected with her in the first place, and what messages i can take away from the experience for the remainder of the year <3

I finished reading my book but dont have the next in the series yet so I’m rereading a book from my shelf from hs that I have fond memories of. It’s so nice revisiting books. 16 year old me had such a different experience than 23 year old me is having now and yet I find myself finding the magic of it all and peering through it from 16 year old me’s eyes. also challenging myself to finish this in three days or less, that’s something younger me excelled at and It’s honestly such a good feeling to read through a book and not want to put it down >_<

I bought a book that caught my eye from a bookstore in Boston either as a high schooler or college student. As a busy, unmotivated ex-reader, I could barely get past the first 10 pages.
For at least four years but probably more, I’ve picked up and read the first few pages a few times. It’s come with me to every apartment and most vacations.
I read some books for pleasure last year, the first since middle school, and felt like a baddie. Then I started a meh book and fell off the reading train.
I brought this new book on a trip this weekend and started it over yesterday. It is so good. I just finished it. I knew it was worth taking everywhere. Am very proud of myself :,)
