I cannot express how much I adore dappled shadows formed by sunlight in paintings and photography and in real life

obsessed with mass market paperbacks. their pleasing rectangular proportions. how they fit badly in a hoodie pocket so you can drag them around everywhere with you like a temporary little buddy. the way they fit in your hand because they're MADE for human hands and not as bookshelf decoration. the way the pages feel when you riffle them gently with your thumb. How pristine and crisp they look when you get them and how creased and folded they look when you're done, even if you try to be nice to them. how that wear is okay, how that's correct actually, because they're made with the philosophy that books aren't meant to be PRETTY, they're meant to be read. that little ripple new ones get on the left side from where you hold them when you're reading, the way the ripple only goes as far as you've read, because u change stories by reading as they are changing you. how you can find thousands of these creased and folded and loved little dudes in every thrift store and used book shop and neighborhood library and you can instantly see the ones that someone carried around in a backpack for weeks or read to pieces or gave up on halfway through because they wear being read like fresh snow wears footprints. I love these poorly made, subpar little rectangles so much. truly the people's books.

#cannot stand hardback books most of the time #only way i bear them is when the choice is buy hardback now or wait for uncertain amount of time until paperback is printed #hardcovers dont wear out prettily like paperbacks do #biggest pristine book hater here #show me pages that have been loved #reading #books #booklr #commreads

take figures out of their boxes btw. sew patches on your favorite jacket. go to bed with your favorite plushes. wear the pants you usually save for special occasions. draw something cool on your wall. put a sticker on your laptop. dye your hair and pierce your lips. glass is meant to break, metal is meant to rust. items are meant to be used. that's how the world knows that somebody loved them.

#i annotate all my books #little lines scattered here and there proving that i lived in these pages #dog ears on chapter starts because i dont have time to sit through a book in one go anymore #not like i used to #the oils from my fingertips stain the paper #i am happy to have been there #i am happy to exist #damage is sacred #booklr #bookblr #books #reading #books and reading

Finished 2:30am, Tue 30 April

Individuality, agency, and the importance of moving forward/permitting self-evolution in the face of fear.

#informal review: what the fuck did i just read (pos) #and the ENDING??
