Rec'd on 📖 3/12: ONE (1) OF YOUR FAVORITE BOOKS
Kite runner by Khaled hosseini
The first book I ever had to read in the secrecy of the bathroom when my parents deemed it too grownup for me to read at the time. Turns out the knew the whole time but decided to not spare me the trauma of reading it. The pages in my copy are still stained with my tears from all those years ago

A series of unfortunate events (the book series)
first read these when i was in elementary school. i’m on the last book now of my early-20s reread. the writing is clever and emotional. i’m just shocked by how much depth and language play is contained in these—things i surely missed in my first read. i recommend reading or rereading these at any age!

Reading in bed
dunno how old i was and it obviously wasn’t the first time i’d read but i believe my brain turned on to make a memory of gleefully poring over a kid fantasy for a reason— stories opened the world for me even as a little’un

Still life with bones by alexa hagerty
It's a real life account of an anthropologist who worked with forensic teams to investigate the mass graves from genocides in Latin America and it's pretty fucking interesting yet heartbreaking

pair of earrings and a nose piercing
I've had the earrings since I was about 5 years old, never taken it off unless it was to clean them. Recently got a nose piercing last year so i haven't changed the stud out yet due to many warnings of infections that will follow but I'm planning on changing it out for a hoop in the next few months
