IndoorDame @TheBookHippie thanks 🙏♥️ just a flare or maybe a virus I picked up. Haven‘t really been reading or spending much time online, but 🤞🏼I‘ll be back to normal soon enough 2w

TheBookHippie @IndoorDame ♥️🤞🏻Hope it passes soon! 2w

TheBookHippie Happy Sunday! Hope you‘re doing a bit better. 2w

IndoorDame @TheBookHippie thank you!!!!! 💜💜💜 I‘m bouncing back slowly, but definitely bouncing back. I may read this months book slowly and just look back at everyone‘s thoughts cause my brain fog is still pretty intense, but I‘m definitely feeling more like myself every day 2w

TheBookHippie @IndoorDame I‘m so glad you‘re on the upswing!!! This months book is dense! Many of us reading it much slower. 🙃 2w

Cuilin Hi. Just checking in. Hope you‘re good. 💜 2d

Essential Bukowski: Poetry by Charles Bukowski is a good fit for those seeking a thought-provoking and emotionally charged collection of poems that explore the complexities of the human experience, delving into themes of love, death, sex, writing, and the struggles of everyday life with a raw, honest, and often humorous voice. An editor once called him a “passionate madman.”

Haven‘t read my favorite poet in awhile so when I saw this I dived right in. A great collection of some of his most classic and famous poems that are both profound and sad at the same time. I‘ll be thinking about these for awhile.

“What matters most is how well you walk through the fire.”

From my shelves, a book of poems that I‘ve not yet read. This was a gift from a fellow cat lover. 😻

Bukowski is so raw and real. His work makes me want to stay up late, sleep in strange places, and drink whiskey on the rocks - so long as it'll grant me a glimpse at what it's like to write this way.

Visited one of my favorite bookstores and returned with these. Very excited about the tagged - someone in a crit group recently compared my poetry to Bukowski's and I am eager to read his work.

So far Boston has been painful, but we've walked to this loud, smoky dive bar for dinner. It seems like a pretty good representation of the poet, and the menu looks really good. I love finding nerdy literary places to eat/drink.

EDIT: Try the mashed potatoes! Omg!

britt_brooke Love Bukowski and dive bars - have fun! 7y

CocoReads Dive bars frequently have the best food. 7y

Bookcation74 You are right around the corner from a great bookstore - check out Trident Booksellers and Cafe! 7y

GondorGirl @Bookcation74 Maybe we'll try to go there tomorrow! It's waking distance from the convention center. 7y

Billypar Oh no...painful? I second @Bookcation74 - I love Trident. Brookline Booksmith is good too. 7y

GondorGirl @Billypar Dropped a piece of gridwall on my foot and broke a toe. Not the worst I've done at a show, but it's going to be an unpleasant weekend on my feet. In other news, I wish we had free time to explore the city more... I've never been to Massachusetts. 7y

Billypar @GondorGirl Ouch 😬 😬 Take it easy as much as you can, even if relaxing with a book isn't much of an option! 7y

GlassAsDiamonds Oh ouch! Ice and ibuprofen!!! (And food with the ibuprofen). Hopefully the convention will be great fun and make up for it? 7y

Better than Rory Gilmore‘s reading list is Jess Mariano‘s. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he was kind of a jerk sometimes, but I‘d still marry him a hundred times over. He‘d read me to sleep at night. Swoon. https://www.buzzfeed.com/eleventy11/the-jess-mariano-reading-list-15muu?utm_term...

Ross So... you‘d let him kill you? 😂 7y

merelybookish I'm a sucker for Jess too. He's the bad boy I just can't stop loving. 7y

Krisjericho @Ross Well, la petite mort, yes. 😂 7y

Ross Haha Amen, to that. 🤔 but then, when you put it that way, I feel bad for valiant men... (edited) 7y

Krisjericho @Ross There is no lie in my fire ... 7y

My first step in to the world of Bukowski. I didn't know about him till I read 'Every Exquisite Thing'.. now, I find myself searching for his poetry.

saresmoore Ahhh, I feel saner already. Which is ironic, considering the content of most of these books! (edited) 8y

RealLifeReading I've finally started reading Quesadillas and it's a lot of fun! Also this is the second mention of The Stranger in the Woods I've seen this morning 8y

britt_brooke @RealLifeReading Those are both on my TBR shortlist! Glad you're enjoying Quesadillas - it sounds like one I'm really going to like. 8y

Litlady I want them all! 😩☘😩☘😂☘😂☘ Thank goodness payday is just around the corner plus the library. 😍😉📚👍 8y

britt_brooke @Litlady 😁💚💚💚 8y

LeahBergen Nice! I've been meaning to pick up a copy of Quesadillas. 8y

AshleyHoss820 The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie was a fun, light read! 8y

britt_brooke @LeahBergen I've been meaning to crack it open! 😜 8y

britt_brooke @AshleyHoss820 I've seen such good things about Flavia. Need to read it soon! 8y

AshleyHoss820 It came as a recommendation for a Book Bingo I was doing (First Book in a Series) and I wasn't disappointed! I solved the mystery early on (I'm an avid Agatha Christie & Sherlock Holmes reader) but it was well-written and the main character is so fun! 😊An 11-year-old girl solving crimes? Yes, please! 8y
