I finished my self paced Developmental Editing course! Now to practice practice practice!

I’m almost done with reading this, and honestly, it has been such an insane ride. To think that someone can experience so much in their life and at the end of the day still search for happiness….my brain chemistry could never.

I DNFed this book at 50% I wanted more bookshop and a little bit faster pace. I think cozy books just might not be for me #reader #dnf

I started being consistently active on insta in 2024 for bookstagram, and this was reluctantly so because my brain has never liked insta as a social platform. My page was taking shape. I was getting comfortable! BUT the change to the grid messed up all my graphics. I’m ready to jump ship immediately

Oh to be a ratkin who inherits a bookshop!

I have just started this book, and let me tell you, it is not for the weak of heart. There is enough trauma in the first two chapters to last several lifetimes. I feel like I owe it to Charlotte Roberts to witness her story and triumph from such a life.

#Bridgerton Simon: you’re my wife, I own you! You’ll do what I say. Me:

Violet Bridgerton giving the worst birds and bees speech ever

Simon: I can’t have children (lying) Daphne: You’re enough (also lying) They deserve on another. And I’m dying. JUST TALK TO ONE ANOTHER!

Drama drama drama. Everyone in this book is a dramatic ass hoe

There’s too much chuckling. These people do nothing but laugh, and smirk, and cough to cover their mirth. #bridgertonthedukeandi

I listened to The Kite Runner a few days ago, and I remembered my time in AFG, the history and culture I studied to get ready for my deployment, and the people I met. I wondered what AFG would have been if it had been left to thrive instead of picked clean by political and religious vultures

I was in Afghanistan in 2013. The very first time I left base I was in full kit, in an up-armored truck, and behind a gun. In the town outside the FOB there were people living their everyday lives, and I will never forget the children doing fake karate and playing soccer. Yet I was afraid.

Started the first Bridgerton audio book, I’ve watched all the seasons. I think the adaptation for the show was so smart. This is a fun fake dating historical romance novel, but as it is wouldn’t translate to TV 1:1 and be nearly as interesting.

I’m going to see MCR in 2025. Im so excited!!!

Ooooh Andy and Lilly are messssssy MESSY! #booktalk

Fan art of my favorite character from Envoys of War by @dlawsonauthor.bsky.social , Tobias Stinton!

Have any of you guys read this? I loved the movie, but I can already tell it’s going to be different! But good different or bad different? #thedevilwearsprada

#freebritney but also maybe get this woman some intense therapy because she has been THROUGH IT.

Finished this up today and oh man was it a doozy knowing that little less than a year after releasing this memoir he would succumb to his addiction.

I got some #bookmail this week and I loved it!!
