Bought this on a whim bc of the Hilma af Klint painting on the cover ! Such a beautiful book and a really moving exploration of how artists have used creativity to explore spirituality, science, and human consciousness

Also this book is AMAZING. Really changed the way I look at not just fungus but the world. i read the standard text version, but he then released an illustrated version with photographs and diagrams and illustrations and im soooo jealous people get to experience it that way for the first time.

Love is not an exchange, love is an art!!!!! The Art of Loving gives insaaanee insight into how we undervalue love & how we [incorrectly] navigate relationships. Lots of hard pills to swallow w/ Fromm’s theories but I find myself agreeing with most :o one of my fav works ever 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I know The Secret History is the most popular Tartt novel, but this one should be hyped so much more than it is!! It's a super long read, but it genuinely changed me as a person to sit through. It really spoke to me about the meaning of art and human connection and what it means to try to be a good person, even when you are convinced you have already messed up too much or have done everything wrong. I haven't been able to be as interested in many other books since, because nothing seems to be able to affect me as deeply (So I guess it kinda cursed me LOL).

This was going to be an anti-rec about not making out to Beach House with someone you’ve only known three weeks bc you’ll think of them every time you hear Beach House but then I realized that actually life is too short to not make out to Beach House
