Just finished You Made A Fool of Death With Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi and I don’t know why I expected to be able to function afterwards but as with every piece I read from them I am mush. All the feels. All the kinds of feels. I am undone. Yet again. #JustGonnaGoCry

@IMPaulbert We all meow down here.

Me: I like adverbs. @IMPaulbert : They aren’t your friends. Me: I don’t want friends. I want adverbs.

[Ms. Casey Krall @ms_krall]

@IMPaulbert This is the way of our marriage.

[Ms. Casey Krall @ms_krall]

@IMPaulbert Also! To be fair, I suggested a system in which unused “book purchases” roll over to the next month.

@IMPaulbert I don’t know what I’m going to do with myself when we are done with Wanderers and still waiting for the sequel…

My husband sent this to me with “It’s you” and I can’t say he’s wrong…

@IMPaulbert I like that since I’m wearing black and my hair was dark, it just looks like you are kissing a tree trunk in our wedding photo.

Update (3 chapters in): I didn’t think I could love anything as much/more than The Queen of Cicadas. I may have been wrong. I will, for the rest of my life and maybe even after I’m dead, purchase any/everything this woman writes.

[Ms. Casey Krall @ms_krall]

The deeply felt joy of starting a book by an author you love and remembering exactly how much you love that author’s voice… These are things worth waking up for. (The book is Goddess of Filth by V. Castro, btw.)

If we don't have room for immigrants and dreamers, maybe we should get rid of racists and white supremacists and make some room.

[PlanToChangeTheWorld @EdLibPlanBook]

There is a calm stream flowing within us even in the midst of turmoil and chaos. The last two and a half years have been FULL. They have been full of beauty, full of love, full of endings… (1/4)
