I fell entirely in love with SOFT SCIENCE by Franny Choi the instant I started reading. I loved every bit of it, but right now this is the poem I keep coming back to the most. . . #poetry #apoemaday #nationalpoetrymonth #softscience #frannychoi #alicejamesbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/B_IX47zAQLa/?igshid=1b4xndkb9dzrh

I was feeling deeply guilty/inadequate about the amount of time I was making for reading this month. Was part of the problem going down to one physical therapy appointment a week instead of two? Jumpstarting those days reading a book in a waiting room definitely increased my need to find time to read throughout the day. Anyway, now that I am stacking up all my reads for #februarywrapup, it doesn’t look so bad. As you can see my reading was dominated by the #blacklitchallenge, though I am feeling sad about all those excelleny books on my TBR that I didn’t get to. Back to the general TBR shelves they go! I’ve done individual posts on all of those books, but I haven’t talked about the others: . . MOOMINVALLEY IN NOVEMBER was a bedtime story book for my kids, I think also the last Moomin book I hadn’t read. This is a strangely charming book, with the Moomin family away at see, their house is taken over by Hemulen, Fillyjonk, Toft, Mymble, Snufkin, and Grandpa-Grumble, six wildly different personalities who struggle to coexist without the Moomins. It was lovely. . . SOFT SCIENCE was SO GOOD. It’s central metaphor is that the narrator is a cyborg, so it spends the entire book poking at what it means to be human, especially as a woman. I need to write a full review soon, I am still organizing my thoughts. . . THE MAGICIANS: ALICE’S STORY was an impulse decision at the library. I love the TV show, but haven’t committed to the books because I am 100% here for ELIOT AND MARGO FOREVER and I hear they are less central in the books. This seemed like an easy way to dip my toes in. I wasn’t in love with this, but I did feel like I got to know and understand Alice better, which I suppose was the goal. But listen, if there was an Eliot’s Story, I would buy it in a heartbeat. . . #bookstack #themagicians #alicesstory #levgrossman #lilahsturges #piusbak #marchtrilogy #johnlewis #andrewaydin #natepowell #softscience #frannychoi #magicalnegro #morganparker #seenowthen #jamaicakincaid #thegoodlordbird #jamesmcbride #moominvalleyinnovember #tovejansson #kingsleyhart #ifbealestreetcouldtalk #jamesbaldwin https://www.instagram.com/p/B9PZFY0gqam/?igshid=1lu2amjtds3ki

My goodies arrived today! Three books of poetry — Brute by @emily_skaja, Soft Science by @fancyrhino , and The Octopus Museum by Brenda Shaughnessy — as well as The Literary Witches Oracle, written by @taisia.kitaiskaia and illustrated by @goodyhoran (who also happened to have provided the cover art my collaborative chapbook, Every Girl Becomes the Wolf). First card drawn was Wolf (the self without others / a calling / the great expanse). . . . . . . . #booklove #bookworm #booklover #igbooks #bookish #bibliophile #bookstagram #amreading #bookphoto #reading #reader #ilovetoread #readersofinstagram #poetry #poetrybook #poetsofinstagram #poets #poetrycommunity #oracle #literarywitchesoracle #brendashaughnessy #frannychoi #emilyskaja #theoctopusmuseum #softscience #brute #witchythings https://www.instagram.com/p/B22vubzBkjq/?igshid=ttm1uu0i47ru

My #februarytbr. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. . . So, what happened was this: As usual, I have way too many books out from the library, plus I was in the middle of a few books, and then I started pulling books for #blacklitchallenge. You know, at first I thought I should winnow down my stack to something I could more reasonably finish, but then I decided to leave the stack huge so I could pick and choose according to mood. I will absolutely not read all of these, but I hope to make a big dent! . . I do also have a Black history book on order that should come in this month that I am excited about and will do a post when it comes in. . . Yes, I know I am ridiculous. . . #bookstack #octaviabutler #jamesbaldwin #nickydrayden #jamesmcbride #tonimorrison #chimamandangoziadichie #yaagyasi #jamaicakincaid #owendavies #morganparker #frannychoi #johnlewis #sallymwalker #levgrossman #ginasiciliano https://www.instagram.com/p/B8E6IS5gNNn/?igshid=vok6jyyc6dru
