chronicles of finishing an entire book in one sitting:
• getting something to drink
• finding the perfect sitting position (preferably one that breaks your spine after 5 hours)
• finding the right way to hold your book
• actually reading
• gasping, wheezing, sobbing, laughing, clenching your fist, furrowing your eyebrows, wiping your tears with your shirt, putting your book down for “a hot minute”
• grabbing your mug and realizing that you’ve finished your drink 4 hours ago
• finishing the book
• staring into the abyss
• what is life
You know you’re a real book nerd when you’re moving out and your friend asks you what all you have in order to decide what size U-Haul you’ll need,and the first thing out of your mouth is books… 🤦🏻♀️😂
It's been a while. I am thrilled to be back to make this announcement: My poetry book, Sweet Nothings is NOW AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE!
"May the heart, in its exhaustion, remember to rest and indulge into the sweet memories of love songs resounding from its yesteryears.
These are the soft rambles that filled your mind as you lay awake in bed at the early hours of dawn. Those austere longings that snared your heart, relentless as the wind blowing on the trees, swift as the waves kissing the sand, tenacious as the rain chiming in with the beat of the music coming from your stereo, they are here—neatly scribbled and compiled into an anthology. These are your stories. The love notes you hastily jotted down at the last page of your high school textbook, the poems you composed during your weekend getaways, the letters you struggled to ink on stationeries while ardently wishing that one day, the love of your life will find and read them.
They are finally here. The long walks on the beach. The late-night conversations. The sultry kisses at the back seat of your car. The lingering glances. The love songs. The promises. The sweet nothings! They are all here, captured in prose and poetry. So, dear reader, bury your nose on the pages with utmost gusto. Whether you are a sojourner, a bold and willing settler, or a classic runaway in love, you’ve had your own share of sweet nothings, I am sure. Allow yourself to remember. Allow yourself to rediscover your youth, relive the love stories that ended, make peace with the pains they caused. Above all, allow yourself to breathe and celebrate the love stories that won over the years and stayed."

Readers are the best weightlifters, then.
“Books have to be heavy because the whole world’s inside them.”
— Inkheart by Cornelia Funke
It happens way too often.
In fact, it's the best way of living life
Strolling aimlessly in a bookshop is selfcare
I honestly think that crying over a book is one of the most prominent sign of compassion for humanity. You’re crying over someone who isn’t really there, doesn’t really exist, but you still feel for them as if you have known them your entire life.
