The 7 Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

One of the few good books to come out of booktok imo. Themes of queerness, betrayal, and discovering one’s identity, but without being too therapy speech-y if that makes sense. Just feels like a real person experiencing things, not an author trying to teach you lessons. Also, the DRAMA of it all just makes it endlessly readable to me.

Piglet by Lottie Hazel

Spiraling female rage driven novel Piglet Has The Job, The House, And Her Dream Man (Plus His Parents). Just As The Soon-To-Be Wife Feels Comfortable, The Life She Worked So Hard To Build Crumbles Beneath Her. She's Alone, Stuck In Denial, And Coping With Insatiable Hunger. The Sobering Reality Sets In A Little Too Late. Some Descriptions Go On Too Long And The Ending Was Slightly Disappointing. I Wish She Gave Us A Little More Insight, Though Still One Of My Favorites. Themes of gluttony, existentialism, and betrayal

start a zoneout hobby

Even if you have other creative pursuits that require your brain to work, it’s fun to have one that requires very little thought or attention. I started crocheting a couple years ago and it’s perfect while sitting in front of the TV or listening to a podcast or just zoning out. Makes me feel productive even as my brain melts out my ears, and makes me feel creative even when I’m not doing any cooler, more challenging projects that require more of my energy.
