Recently reread this and it was even better than I remembered. There's a lot of Rooney haters and glazers in this world and I'm happy to be in the camp of the latter

the year of magical thinking by joan didion

i've never finished a book so fast in my life. she writes about life and grief in such an intimate way and i could honestly reread it forever. the opening lines are "Life changes fast. Life changes in the instant. You sit down to dinner and life as you know it ends." which, even on its own, is just wow
