i am a HUGE nonfiction junkie, truth is often stranger and more curious than fiction!! my favorite book ever is Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keefe, it’s such an incredibly well-written and deeply researched story about the troubles that i’m nearly certain the new tv show cannot recreate fully. READ THIS BOOK it is a masterclass on long form journalism and research, and it reads like a novel!!

😃game of thrones is RIVETING like just so good, i’m motoring through those books! i also cannot suggest more highly Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keefe and Killers of the Flower Moon (which was way way way better than movie, i think the movie did a disservice to the original story!!)

i’ve wanted to know more about the troubles and the long lasting violence in northern ireland for a while but wasn’t sure where to go to learn about it but i just started this book a couple days ago and it’s really good
im actually not usually a non fiction reader and haven’t really read them since i was like a young child but this is really well written and informative, i’d think it’s hard to retain information from like historical and non fiction writing cause i’ve only really done it recently for classes in school but i guess it’s different when you’re doing it out of choice and your own interest plus you don’t have to worry about having to remember names or dates and you might just pick it up naturally
only coming up to 50 pages in but i’ve already learnt so much, really recommend and ive only heard good things about it in general, want to watch the series of it after

its the perfect blend of fiction and nonfiction. Capote is a journalist and wrote the book after investigating a murder but he writes the book as if it were fiction from the perspectives of the victims and killers. He fills in the gaps with dialogue that may have taken place and the feelings the victims might have had during the home invasion. It’s a true story but very engaging read, plus it has a beautiful cover!

this is the good stuff right here, aquaphor healing balm stick, it’s literally just a thick chapstick that’s for your hands. i was sick and tired of wanting to heal my skin and having to rub all this goop and cream into my hands (getting my fingertips all goopy in the process). this chapstick thing is a LIFESAVER it avoids weird fingertip texture with cream AND it’s incredibly easy to apply to a smaller area or your entire hand!! BUY THIS

☎️i once broke my phone and due to unforeseen circumstances I wasn’t able to get a new one for a couple weeks so I was forced to take time without it, and to be honest, it was beautiful! its nice to say “ah my phone wasn’t on me / my phone was broken so I couldn’t respond.“
since then I’ve done some time intentionally leaving my phone at home when I leave to have a bit of solace and experience the world around me for a moment without needing headphones in or checking notifications constantly. great stuff!!
