Prompt: struggling to get over a break-up

do you remember the story of chemistlavoisier in revolution-era france?bound for death, in the name of science,he decided to blink in one second intervalsfor as long as he could after the guillotineclaimed him. that dawn the crowd hungered.the blade sang with its sharpness.and after it had been rent from its body,lavoisier’s head, his assistant beheld, blinkedfor as much as twenty seconds. i thinklove is like this sometimes:still present after the severing.

alas i have created yet another sideblog. it's for a good cause i swear (it really isn't). i have gotten out of a pretty bad reading slump lately and i just thought it would be nice to have a blog dedicated to the books i'm reading. this is a place where i'll be sharing my thoughts and reviews on my reads, as well as basically liveblogging my reactions to whatever it is i'm reading. i can't wait to start!
