"Stories matter. We are composed of our stories. The human heart is made of the words we put in it. If someone ever says mean things to you, don't let those words go into your heart, and be careful not to put mean words in other people's hearts."
My current reading is a novel about the Palestine-Israeli conflict written by the daughter of Palestinian refugees.

I haven't been able to make it to the jungle to get a photo of my current reading, but here is a photo with the vicious couch panther. #kimmiecatjreads #thejunglebook #couchpanther #rudyardkipling #catsoflitsy
I'm glad I read it for historical and sociological knowledge, but I didn't like the racism, the probable misogyny, or all the dead cats. 😾
I haven't mastered the sock bookstagram photo yet.
The graphic novel had lots of emotional moments, and I didn't predict the plot ahead of time.
I didn't dislike the book, but in the movie, toothless reminded me of my last cat, tux, who was a tuxedo. (That isn't tux in the photo). It does have a good message about how sometimes being heroic isn't always the easiest path.
I love what Margaret Atwood did with "The Tempest"! There are many intricate details in the retelling that I'm still thinking about.
I liked this book much more than I expected to. It is an Estonian book that uses Estonian folklore to tell a story where holding on to past customs competes with adaption new technology. And it's funny.
"I would've been much happier if Pärtel had died--then I could have mourned him in peace. But now I knew that he was still moving around in some distorted, defiled form; he existed, but not for me. I had the feeling you have when someone takes your good old trousers and shits in them; the trousers still exist but they can't be worn anymore; they are full of a disgusting alien smell".
I'm really enjoying the Eighth Day books, even on a rainy day with a stomach virus. I recommend them for fans of Percy Jackson.
I decided that it was a good weekend to start a book about science in the military. #maryroach
I really enjoyed the first half of this book, but I got a little bogged down near the end. It is thought-provoking. Reminds me of Margaret Atwood's MaddAddam trilogy.
I am enjoying this series. Aveyard is doing a great job portraying relationship issues, especially with the main character's best friend and her family.
