"We accept the love we think we deserve." - The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Yesterday, I listened to a musician named Sufjan Stevens. Here's a playlist of his music I created if you don't know who he is.

April 2024:

Beautiful Boy: A Father's Journey Through His Son's Addiction (David Sheff)

Haven't had much time to read because of college finals.

I try not to, but sometimes I can't help myself.

Currently hoping to read at least 18 books this year. Let's see what I read.

The 1930 film adaptation of All Quiet on the Western Front is a classic; and although I can't say it's a favorite, I do like the 1981 film version of Lady Chatterlay's Lover

Well, I'm more than half-way through if 50 books is the standard.

Started reading The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway yesterday.

A film that's in the public domain itself!

I can't say it's a favorite, but I do like the 2015 film adaptation of Madame Bovary starring Mia Wasikowska and Ezra Miller.

Currently reading Madame Bovary by Gustave Floubert and The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.

Finished reading Wuthering Heights today.
