I've Been Feeling Down Today And It's Been Too Hot Lately. I Tried To Read A Bit More Of 'infocracia'
i've been feeling down today and it's been too hot lately. i tried to read a bit more of 'infocracia' with willow as a friend support, but i had to rewrite an essay for one of my classes. unfortunately, i didn't do that either. i just existed and that was it.
finished chouette tho, and i loved it. i'm very much into magical realism. the writing was definitely an experience!
and i decided to treat myself with a skincare night, maybe i'll try to finally watch aftersun. or just read a bit more. 🤍🌧

these are some books that i've bought recently. expecting lispector and camus of me should be common sense by now. and of course, literary theory. 🤍

i received these three clarice lispector books today! i'm so happy and ready to read her works. i already had other three.
pretty amazing, isn't it? the covers are crazy. i'm gonna start with the second one, água viva - my friend told me so.
apart from that, the days have been a little bit harder, and i can't wait for traveling. i need to get away.
but back to the books: i think i'm gonna really start a booktube. for that, i need to get over my shyness. i might not do it, i always leave projects halfway or 'noneway'.
hope everyone is having an amazing day. take care. 🤍🌧

sometimes it rains and it's like nothing more exists. incredible how rain has the power to make me feel safe. 🌧🤍
