call me insane, but i like to graph the number of pages i've written in my journals as the year progresses.
during these past few months i lowkey lost interest in writing though, as shown below.
hopefully i'll get back into it this year, if not, i honestly don't mind that much

I read Ken Kesey's 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗙𝗹𝗲𝘄 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝘂𝗰𝗸𝗼𝗼'𝘀 𝗡𝗲𝘀𝘁. I thought it was a nice story about power and systems of control; there are some passages throughout the book about women that made me feel icky though, especially with a certain line at the climax in Part IV (?). #booksky

I read Aldous Huxley's 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱. I found it a little boring until halfway through when John was introduced, so you can see why I acted like THAT (see quoted post) when I got to the last chapter. Despite its flaws prose-wise I thought its ideas & worldbuilding were interesting 🏝️🇮🇸. #booksky

I read 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗙𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 after finishing the thematically similar 𝗣𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘄𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗕𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 a few weeks prior. I was surprised to see how nuanced this was regarding views on the white men and Christianity, especially with how the dynamic Okonkwo and Nwoye had was influenced by them.

Tonight I finished 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘯-𝘎𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘭𝘭-𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘴 by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah whilst trying not to cry at a Middle Eastern coffee shop. Not only is it an engaging hunger-games-or-squid-game-esque novel but I also learned a lot about the US Prison System as well!

It was 2018, and my closeted 15 y/o self asked someone to buy Aciman's 𝘊𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘔𝘦 𝘣𝘺 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘕𝘢𝘮𝘦 after watching the movie. I finally read it and… I'm not saying it's bad, but ig adult me isn't into romance books nowadays. Plus I watched the movie 3 times so I knew what'd happen LOL

Finished 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘰𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘸𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘉𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 by Barbara Kingsolver last night. So many layers to this one, tackling themes like guilt, colonialism, and religion! Kinda slow but it does pick up the pace. Also features characters you’re gonna LOVE to hate!

Thursday evening. Finished just-released 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘰𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘎𝘭𝘢𝘥𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 by Ocean Vuong. Kinda nostalgic and slice-of-lifey. Can get dark and emotional but there are also some parts that made me giggle. Reminiscent of my grandmother who passed away. Miss you Lola!

Finished 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘺 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘦 by Yoko Ogawa. Man, this book is too current for me and I felt absolutely awful by the end of it. Probably b/c of how everyone’s complicity towards the disappearances reflects our own behavior. I still loved it though! 4.5/5! #booksky #dystopian #literature

I enjoyed it, but this is possibly the most graphic thing I've read since 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘗𝘴𝘺𝘤𝘩𝘰. An interview reveals he was fascinated with Marquis de Sade. Figures.
It won a Lammy so that’s pretty cool.

May or may not start a series on where I go on semi-stream-of-consciousness style rambles as I recall the drives that I go on, and the thoughts that were going on my head during that time.

Now there's a way, and I know
That I have to go away 🎵
