Au Revoir, Adieu
I have changed my mind.
My heart is in telling new stories.
I leave you with the hope that you may learn from me.
Go and become who you want to be.
Queen of the underworld, goddess of spring, Persephone.
Come home from the upside down. It’s cold here, and Australia burns.
It’s very exhausting to eat an elephant
-I have a lot to do
Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis
Technically speaking this one is for school… but I finished it early?
I’m trying to stay on track with a book a week and this was a crazy week, so here we are, with a schoolbook instead of a pleasure read.
It’s all good though.
I give this one a 4/5
Lewis is a great communicator, I was just not quite interested in it.
Write hard and clear about what hurts.
You know what hurts?
Not being able to name what hurts.
Knowing there’s something but just being stuck in the cycle of pain and sadness… what do you even do with that?
You know what hurts?
Being yelled at.
Being helpless.
Needing something and being unable to ask for help.
Asking for help and being shamed for it.
Desperation.
You know what hurts me most?
My friend’s pain. The pain I can’t do anything about.
That desperation.
Helplessness.
Helplessness hurts me more than anything else.
But I have bigger problems.
Life just feels better when you actually eat three meals a day.
-Why do I not do this
Dr. Doolittle (2020)
My DEAR Doctor Doolittle I am so VERY pleased to make your acquaintance, I am a fan of your books I’m DREADFULLY excited about your movie.
I loved this movie.
Is it perfect? no.
Did I find any fault with it? yes.
Would I recommend? yes, 10/10
For anyone who can stomach a couple medical procedures (none of them bloody,) a whiny gorilla, a little potty humor, and a fiery dragon, GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!
(spoilers across the line, be ye warned)
{{there’s not much to be spoiled though it’s pretty predictable once it gets going but WHO CARES}}
Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
Three stars.
Did not enjoy.
I am greatly disturbed.
And somewhat annoyed.
And also in awe.
Okay WHY is this a classic and WHY, when I feel it is poorly written, is it also so absolutely horrifying and thought provoking?
#spoilersbeyondthispointproceedatyourownrisk
You know what hurts?
Broken promises.
Someone saying they don’t want you.
Not being able to save everyone.
not being able to save everyone
not being able to save everyone
– I can’t even save myself
or
– idolization of heroics
