Yup. That's right. I'm still reading Lightfall book 2! No idea why it is taking me quite so long. Maybe it's has something to do with the chaos that is life right now. Maaaaybe im savoring the read just a bit more than usual. I love a good road trip! Either I get to read in the passenger seat, or I drive and everyone falls asleep and I get to listen to my audiobook. Either way, I love a good road trip! #currentlyreading #raiseareader #loveofreading #bookcommunity #bookpeople #roadtrip #lightfall #read #readerlife #graphicnovel #getcaughtreading https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp_WIEztc6l/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hello bookish friends. 🧡🧡🧡 This is my first ever Shadowhunter post. Hahaha. I've actually read TID and TMI before via ebook and I am just starting to collect physical copies of the shadowhunter books. Hopefully I get to complete them this year 😅. To tell you honestly, Ms. Clare's works are one of the reasons that I get to love reading esp my fave TID. I think everyone here loves the trilogy though 💖💫 . Also, let us take time and appreciate this awesome William Herondale bookmark made by the brilliant @_quarantineartz 💖🥰 Swipe left to see Will closer and recognize how handsome he is in this artwork. 😍🤗🤩 . ♡QOTD1: Do you like big and thick books? ♡QOTD2: Team Will or Team Jem? . . #shadowhunters #willherondale #jemcarstairs #tessagray #theinfernaldevices #TID #cassandraclare #trilogy #bookmark #bookstagram #bookphotography #bookstagramfeature #mybookfeatures #getcaughtreading #shadowhuntersunday (at London Institute) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO7-h4CLhij/?igshid=1u5w63ve137oy

Get caught reading! May is the month of Get Caught Reading.

In the Persian tradition, whenever one faces a difficulty or a fork in the road, or even if one has a general question in mind, one would hold that question in mind, and then open the Divan (Book of Collected Poems) of Hafez of Shiraz (1315-1390) to a random page for guidance. It is widely believed that Hafez’s poetry will then reveal the answer to one's destiny.

This image shows a young prince kneeling before a sage, who is holding open the Divan of Hafez. The two pages to which the book is open show the initial lines of ghazal (verse) 32 of Hafez's Divan, which read (in Engl. translation):

            "When God designed your features and joined your brows

             Paved my way, then trapped me with your gestures & bows..."

According to guides on how to use the Divan of Hafez for divination, opening the Divan to the first 2 lines of verse 32 gives the following advice:

"The knot of your problems will be opened, provided you are wise. You will not resolve them with impatience and rushing."

This miniature is part of the album of Prince Dara Shikoh (1615-1659), eldest son of India's Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan, who gave this album as a present to his wife Nadira Banu Begam.

The Dara Shikoh Album is now held by the British Library (MS Add. Or. 3129, fol. 18). The Harvard Fine Arts Library has images of the miniatures from this album, recently digitized from original 35mm color slides in the Stuart Cary Welch Islamic and South Asian Photograph Collection. Harvard Fine Arts Library is the only place where you can find all the images from this manuscript digitally.

Have a happy Memorial Day Weekend, everybody. Hope you’ll find some time for reading!

SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT!! It’s Sunday already and today we spotlight a book that is as hot as Houston weather 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! Why should you be a part of this heat wave? The book is inspiring and easily relatable, even if you’re particular circumstances were far different from Viola’s. I got mine @kindredstorieshtx and I wrote ✍🏿 Viola. Davis. She unfortunately internalized some beliefs about beauty and blackness; couple that with poverty and you have all the makings of a very deep hole with life pouring in thick mud daily. To have persevered and achieved her dream of being an actress is a tremendous overcoming and her baring the truth of her journey makes this a remarkable read. No way you come away from this book, without being inspired in some way. It took her some time to find HER! But she did. And as you relive the journey to Viola, you will cheer, sneer, laugh, and cry. At the book’s end you will stand and clap as if Viola is in the room and you’ll say “well done lady!” #ownvoicesreviews #violadavis #findingme #bookpusher #pushingbooksainteasy #makereadinglitagain #bookreviewer #bookreviews #goodblackreads #blackbooksmatter #bibliophile #blackbibliophile #harperonebooks #ebonymagazinepublishing #houstonreads #getcaughtreading #r4 #lovereading #bookstagram #booksaremylovelanguage (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CetMhLjrVX-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

National Asparagus Month

Yep. It's National Asparagus Month because of course it is. It is ALSO Get Caught Reading Month which is a great reminder for me (and probably a ton of other people) to get the fuck off of my GD phone at night and pick up a book instead. Life is so strange right now and it's becoming increasingly easy to get lost on our phones when we don't know what else to do. How else are we supposed to stay connected other than sharing Tiger King memes and trying to learn the "Savage" TikTok dance? TELL ME! #2020problems. 

I've never been a great reader. I'm super practical so I get bored easily with fiction and much of the nonfiction I typically like feels too stressful to read (Johnathan Haidt's The Righteous Mind is fantastic but oh-so-triggering to read right now). The fact of the matter is that I need to get over myself and figure it out if I want to be productive and learn during this time. I welcome the pressure of this month's suggestion that I get lost in a book.

Connor Goodwin agrees with me in The Atlantic saying that reading during this time gives him something to look forward to and that "In fact, it might be the best antidote for the psychological toll of a socially distanced life." He makes a great point. Time feels endless and wobbly right now and many of us are craving something that will demand our attention and make us actually focus rather than just sit on the couch and see how many chips filled with salsa we can fit into our mouths at once. *I'm not eating right now, you're eating right now STOP JUDGING ME*

PLUS, books don't make your pee smell.

I love a good road trip. Whether it's me driving while listening to an audiobook or someone else driving while I read or catch up on social media, it's always a good time. It kind of blows my mind that some people can't read while in a moving car! I've just always done it! Can you read in the car? #getcaughtreading #roadtrip #lucky #booklove #bookstagram #bookcommunity #reader #currentlyreading https://www.instagram.com/p/CnAUUmzuAh5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

May is National Get Caught Reading Month. So, get caught reading!

Woman reading a book Tamamura, Kozaburo, Japanese , 1856 CE- [photographer] Studio portrait. Materials/Techniques: Hand-colored albumen print mounted on cardboard hinged in accordion-fold album. Dimensions: 27 x 21 cm.

Historical: Ernest Goodrich Stillman, the son of American financier and banker James Stillman, earned his BA from Harvard in 1908 and his MD from Columbia in 1913. He worked at the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research from 1915-1949. A generous benefactor of Harvard University, he had many interests, including photography and collecting Japanese art and literature. Regarded as an originator of "Yokohama shashin" for tourists, Tamamura Kozaburo opened his first studio in Tokyo in 1874 and then moved to Yokohama in 1883. For the next 30 years he became one of the most successful and popular commercial photographers in Japan by selling souvenir photograph albums to foreigners and taking profitable commissions from various organizations. He received many awards for his photography before his son Tamamura Kihei took over the business in 1916.

Provenance: Gift of E.G. Stillman to Widener Library, 1930, later transferred to the Fine Arts Library.
