"Of all things, I liked books best."
- Nikola Tesla
so, i came back to tumblr, after all! weird to be here, i've disappeared almost everywhere, the queen of ghosting. it was for a good reason. i've been dealing with a long period of crisis, gave up 2 semesters at uni, been stuck in my bed 23h/day (not a hyperbole). finally, i feel like coming back here.
in this whole period, i haven't done too much. couldn't read, watched not so many movies/tv shows, but i did listen to a bunch of music. that kept me a bit less depressed.
i feel like i have something inside of me that is trying too hard to get out, but i don't know how to do it; it's a feeling of creation. only a few people actually feel this, like they need to create something, to put it out, but haven't found a way yet. it's stuck, and it's a whole interwork.
AND altho i know that not many people follow me, neither know who i am or whatever, but to anybody reading this and going through something bad, i hope you get better. focus on your health. it'll pass, doesn't matter when, just be strong and keep fighting. this isn't a coaching shit or self-help bad book, but for experience of someone who's dealing with way too much. everyday is a new day to begin again, until you get it.
have a really muthafuckin great day, guys. much love to you. (that's for the 2 people maybe reading this lmfao thank you for being here) 🌧🤍
these are some books that i've bought recently. expecting lispector and camus of me should be common sense by now. and of course, literary theory. 🤍
1am, i'm reading 'hiperculturalidade', and it's so good. probably, i'll be finishing it on thursday or friday.
also, i read today 'blue horses' by mary oliver and liked it. wasn't too invested tho, but it's great.
and in the morning, i was able to read a lot of 'the idiot' by elif batuman. this book is making me so happy! her writing is amazing and just to be in selin's mind is fascinating.
be kind to yourselves 🤍🌧
continuing this one today! i'm still on 10% but really enjoying it. it's funny and brings some good questions to think about.
other than that, i apply for next semester's classes. hope i'll be accepted at all of them.
i'm trying to think more about the projects i'd like to work on.
i hope it rains today. 🌧
Life's not fair, i should be paid for existing and reading books
The Wives by Tarryn Fisher
This entire book has you believe one thing, then another, then another, and you just never know what's going to happen. I did not expect that ending at all. It was a confusing, mind-bending, suspense lol
I am really tempted to try to take an inventory of all the books I own. It'd be useful for me to keep track of what I have so I don't accidentally get duplicates. And it'd be kind of neat to post it here because I love to see what people have in their libraries.
But.....
I own over 300 books, at least. Probably a lot more. And, due to limited shelf space, I kind of have them stashed everywhere around my house.
It would be a huge undertaking for me just to make a full list of them all. And then organize that list. And I know myself. I would absolutely include details about what specific edition I have. Have I finished them? For the unread ones, have I just not started them yet, or are they dnf? And on and on and on....
So much effort and I'm not sure if I can really commit to it

The cover of my novel releasing in May.
Inspiration comes in many ways. The motivation to write on a subject. Enjoying your own writing, this last chapter, I keep reading thinking I didn't write it. After reading it again, I still love it.
My goal is showing up at a book festival and be one of the headline authors.
A James Bond type thriller, taking a trip around the world to find Moneypenny.
