“To live in this world
you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal;
to hold it
against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it
go,
to let it go."
- "In Blackwater Woods", Mary Oliver

„In these unsettling times, every flash of breaking news is enough to crack the human heart.“
How true💔
Do I need more books? No. Does that stop me from buying them? Also no.😂
There arrived today and I‘m looking foward to reading them! I‘ve read a book by Sorokin last year that I‘ve enjoyed lots and the other two also sound so good🥰 (they have also been cat approved🙊)
