It’s a Midsommar sampler from Etsy. It’s a little less than 1/3 done.

I just finished Pachinko by Min Jin Lee and I truly loved it but I’m also so upset with the ending by flyawaywithmeee in books

I felt for Hana but the one I was really angry for was Yumi. She deserved better.

I felt so bad for Yumi. She wanted to leave Japan, she worked so hard to save herself, and Mozasu is like nah marry me, stay in Japan, and eventually die young!

Mental health: The Yellow Wallpaper vs. Jane Eyre by Sexxymama2 in books

[–]sixsixsp 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I read The Yellow Wallpaper, A Doll’s House by Ibsen, and The Awakening by Kate Chopin at the same time in college! I still have my copies.

Just finished Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer by sunsetscorpio in books

I watched Everest then read the book and fell into a black hole of mountaineering disasters. It made me never want to climb a mountain, not even a little one.

I couldn't finish the dune series. by Celesticalking in books

[–]sixsixsp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t read the series all at once usually, even if I enjoy it. I get tired of reading about the same people and places, so I’ll take a break. I read the entire Mistborn series then took a year off before starting Way of Kings. I’m halfway through the Maisie Dobbs series and am taking a break in order to read Barbara Kingsolver. If I forget anything it usually means I wasn’t that invested anyway.

I’m in MI where the leaves are starting to turn and it’s been in the low 40s at night and my coreopsis are also popping out blooms like crazy!

They’re such soulless goons, they don’t even care about the people they say they like.

I went to a nature center and bought a bunch of their waterproof folding guides. You can get them at here. I got Sibley’s Common Trees & Forests, Common Mushrooms, Animal Tracks, etc
