Two years ago today I started my bookstagram - a hobby that’s connected me with other readers and teachers, incited conversations about everything from shows to social justice to shoes, exponentially grown my TBR, and brought me joy during a year lived mostly in isolation. It’s almost 8pm and I’m end of the year teacher tired, but I didn’t want to let the day pass without marking it. Thanks for being here, for sharing books and beauty and TikToks and pieces of yourself, and for being a part of my community. If you need me, I’ll be here, wearing bookish tees and reading (lately, it’s been this beautiful addition to my collection from @a.thousand.literary.lives) and always, always encouraging everyone to read more books! 💛 via Instagram https://instagr.am/p/CPWuNJDLm0m/
