a friend recommended this book to me recently and i now consider it the book of my life. i think it's become very important to me lately. i'm rereading it now, digging through each passage to find the moments i felt touched by it. i'm going to reread this book the way i rewatch my favorite comfort shows and movies. it will help me through hard times, i think it already has. still is. i really want to savor this book. keep it close to my heart.

feeling overwhelmed with a few emotions right now, so i'm hurrying to write this post. this is part 1 of many, because it's only from the first 8 chapters and there are 20 in total lmao.
