Since I Laid My Burden Down | 
pickI read this book in 2 day‘s. I couldn‘t put it down. Definitely a book to read for the month of pride 🌈 best quote from@the book 📖 is:
“You know baby people think life is all about the big battles, but it‘s really not about that. Sometimes it‘s about finding enough self-love just to get through day‘s chores done. If you do that much every day, life gets a little easier every day.”
pickThis is a quick read about growing up gay in the Deep South. I felt for the main character in the loss of several important men in his life. I could feel his restlessness and drifting. I would have liked to see a different ending, but also respect the author‘s view.

It‘s a good morning for snuggles and starting a new book by an author I saw speak at #TXBookFest last weekend.

Here‘s my probably overly ambitious TBR for November. My MIL will be here for Thanksgiving week, so I probably won‘t get to read much then. I‘m already a good chunk of the way through both the Owl Post and Bibliophile. I‘m also partway through Dread Nation on audio, and plan to listen to Florida and Severance as well.
#SelfCareSaturday ✨ Giant iced coffee + good book = better day. This has been a really good read so far. Purnell has a really distinct writing voice that makes me keep turning pages. It feels so natural and funny despite covering difficult subject matter.

Barista noticed I was having a really bad day so he drew me Ms. Marvel on my coffee cup. 💛❤️
I'm looking forward to reading this short book! It's recently out from Feminist Press and looks like it will be an amazing but emotionally heavy read.

My very ambitious list for 24in48 readathon. Realistically I'll finish Doves and read the one tagged, and then start one more. But my partner is laid up with a badly infected tooth, and our plans for tomorrow got nixed, so I have nothing else to do. #diversebooks, #queerbooks.
