Quarantine reading

hi again! back here pretending i didn't say i'd be posting more and then disappeared. i hope there's someone here still, if there's not it's ok, let it be just me and my own tumblr shadow.

BUT if there is, i hope you're ok. been a long time, alot happened, it always does.

i went to the movies to watch one of my favorite movies of the year: 'ainda estou aqui' (i'm still here) by walter salles. it's really nice to see a brazilian film doing so well internationally.

there's a promo going on and i bought these books over ☝🏼 there. as always, camus, clarice and byung-chul han; then, ivan turgueniev, woolf (i've been wanting to buy for a long time), and today i received a dostoievski book too 👇🏼!

unfortunately 2 weeks (maybe?) ago, i got hurt on my left foot. i tried to get better but it didn't work; so yesterday during our very first game in the competition, it got worse. i had to go to the hospital. the result is me not allowed to put my left foot on the ground and jumping around the house on one leg only.

and to wrap it up, i literally just started 'the substance'. don't have anything to say yet cause i'm 10 minutes in - but the photography is insane! really really good. i hope the hype is well deserved.

to all of you, the ones reading or not, i wish you peace of mind. have a real nice december! 🤲🏼🩶

Please please please please please read Ink in the Blood by Kim Smejkal. It checks all the boxes! Cool suave mysterious attractive(?) guy, the most world shattering brain destroying death ever, (fictional) heresy, theater, tatoos, magic, platonic lovers, magic gender, just PLEASE GO READ IT I NEED CONTENT TO GO SLURP SLURP ON AND MY BRAIN HAS BEEN REWIRED

Bonus: my reaction upon finishing. "100000000000/0. Words cannot express the empty feeling I have upon completion. I love it only slightly more than I hate it for twisting my soul into a different shape. Will be reading the sequel."

If you have read the book and are seeing this, my favorite character is Vincent and I will never be the same. This is Cinna/Finnick/Rue levels of dispair. (iykyk)

I may have heard that my friend bought a fuck ton of books and mentally decided to square up...

At least they were on sale?

The Sun and the Star prequel UPDATE

I'm so excited for this we get to see nico and Hazle and Solangelo. I feel like screaming they're all badies

The book will be released on September 23 in North America and the UK
