pickBook haul (+ one record) from Third Eye in Annapolis 👁️ I had so many zines in my hand but made it home with just these three.
I managed to put three other books back in the shelf too. Incredible self-control, I know. I wager those can be found at the library while these cannot, although the Rousseau was obv. for the gold foil cover I also want to read it again for class.

Packing for a weekend trip to Colorado mountains ⛰️
Picked up this in hardcover from the library bookstore to read on the driver (IF I am not being “driver”) #classic #WiaN2025 category Wanderlust
pickThe Paris Wife is one of my favorite books. I'm not a fan of Hemmingways books, I'm obsessed with the women in his life.
Love & Ruin focuses on wife number 3. Martha Gellhorn, a woman considered one of the greatest war correspondents of the 20th century.
McLain creates a vibe that absorbs me fully. Smoked filled rooms, whiskey on the rocks, artistic types with deep feelings, daydreamers immersed in reality. Typewriters, affairs and hangovers.
pickBlume tells the story of Hemingways struggles to get his big break and the story behind The Sun Also Rises. What did I learn? Hemingway wasn‘t nearly as creative as I had thought, in this case using the story of a strange bender with friends as the plot for his book. It confirmed than Hemingway was quite honestly an ass. Yet at the same time, I‘m tempted to actually read one of his books for the first time in over twenty years.

pick4✨It has been a while since I‘ve read anything from Hemingway, but I feel like his books continue to reveal themselves throughout this historical fiction. Farewell to arms being one that was lived by the characters and it brings about the story. The life and love story of a favorite author of mine was fun to read in this fictional depiction.
