Iโm 30 days into my 60-day book buying ban, and I find myself reflecting on questions like:
This is so difficult. Why did I decide to do this?
What is even the purpose of this? Just prove I can do it?
Do I actually just hate myself?
Is it cheating if I do 2 separate 30-day book buying bans?
This is what Iโve read so far in 2026. I was hoping to have more poetry books in there, but itโs still been a fun ride so far. ๐๐
Iโm finally free of TikTok ๐ฅณ
After a year of waffling, I finally managed to cut the umbilical cord. I feel more free.
I gotchu, Iโm right there with you. Youโre not alone.

Iโm feeling pretty grief-stricken and hopeless this weekend. These feelings are not new, they come and go. I persist and remain doing what I can in my tiny corner of the world. Hope is not lost, but my whole body feels heavy with grief. Anyway, hereโs Delilah waking up from her nap with her blankie

Personally I like some butterscotch schnapps in my apple cider, but that sounds good too. I might have to branch out.
Iโm so sorry you experienced this. Iโve had this happen a few times and now I wonโt host anything either. Itโs absolutely nauseating when it happens.
Sometimes you just need to roast marshmallows over a fire in a cauldron before doing some midnight magicks ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ฅ

I managed to wake up in time to see the sunrise, but didnโt take any pics this time. It was just for me.

I am unpinned and unhinged
I am outside the box and the circle
Please donโt loop me in. I have looped myself out on purpose.
They excited for a new book in August (magic academic rivals travel to hell to get a rec from a teacher). But then it turned into dumping on romantasy with statements like โif they so much as kiss, it will ruin the whole book for me,โ and then they went on and on about it.
I just had to stop listening to a certain book-related podcast because of all the literary smug superiority. I wanted to just love on all books together, but then they had to go dumping on certain genres.
