Good girl! Haha. You know you and I have a lot in common. I purge I have to do the donation right away or else, here comes the remorse! Lol. And I think I have the Tsundoku illness-- I even buy TBR books on kindle thru Amazon because of BookBub daily and their 1.99 books but 2 a day and maybe like 30% of them read. It's starting to add up, lol. I am not so much a bibliophile as I was an English major and kind of had the symptoms because they were forced onto me by that major-- even if I adored it.
As usual, love your writing and your style and love finding things I relate to! This was a great substack letter and also, happy birthday 🎂 glad you got to spend the time with family and friends-- that's what I appreciate most as well. I do try to get in all that self care as well but I also try to take the time for awe.
I'd listen to the Maura podcast! As for books, I jettisoned nearly all of mine when I left Edinburgh. Now I have six boxes containing only the most precious ones, waiting for a time when I have my own walls. Kindle is not the same, but I love it nonetheless. I have to remind myself that carrying thousands of books with me everywhere I go is something I could have only dreamed of! Magic! Hope you had a wonderful birthday 💜
