I decided to start reading The Poppy War today.

I just got to Chapter 21.

Pain.

idk i just wanna sit in a dark library at night in the candlelight wearing an oversized sweater and exchange glances over my book to my lover while the rain pours outside and feel at peace with the world

my personality constantly switches between a pretentious literature professor and a wise illiterate idiot, there is no in between.

It's always: "wanna hang out" but never "hey let's create a secret society and read literature and poetry"

[librislibertas]

Sir please that's my emotional support stack of books that i haven't read

I hate The Secret History but it’s simultaneously one of my favorite books...

just started reading The Atlas Six by @olivieblake because of a dark academia aesthetic post I saw in tumblr and I’m eternally grateful for that post. This book is everything

y’all ever read a book that’s so good it pretty much takes over you for the rest of the day? like, yeah, i’m walking around, doing what i’m supposed to do, but my mind’s still stuck on that one line that absolutely punched me in the gut when i first saw it. my heart’s still thumping somewhere in-between those pages.

Wouldn’t be amazing if you could see all of your female ancestors at like age 25? All at once? Like you walk into a room and they’ll all in order there and you could talk with them all and see the story of your lineage? What were they doing at my age? What did they all look like? Would they be proud of me?

"My child is fine"

Your child is remaking a doomed movie from thirty years ago in which the set burned down and the lead actress died in a fire.

Tumblr is not a social media site, it is a mid-20s crisis center at this point
