Andrea Gibson, Lord of the Butterflies
friends to lovers because i understood you before i loved you, i saw you before i loved you, and i have loved you in so many intimate ways before i fell in love with you. because i loved being around you for simple reasons before those reasons became so much more and the relief of you are not just a friend to me is the best thing ever.
i have been eating cereal for dinner for the past two weeks but that’s college babey 😎
Herakles - Euripides (Tr. Anne Carson)
okay the funniest book rec I've ever encountered is officially Lit Hub recommending Jamaica Kincaid's A Small Place for the "globe trotting" reader
yeah man you're gonna learn a ton about Antigua, namely that the locals fucking hate your tourist ass and the colonialist legacy that turns Caribbean islands into playgrounds for westerners. incredible work. this is either a brilliantly placed stealth insult or the work of someone who's never actually read the book. funny either way.
sorry mom, i got a small unpopular blog to run
