fantastic written analysis of everything having to do with columbine from the events before and after and working to parse the motivations of the shooters a topic filled with speculation and misinformation amazing book go read it if you have any interest in true crime

its the perfect blend of fiction and nonfiction. Capote is a journalist and wrote the book after investigating a murder but he writes the book as if it were fiction from the perspectives of the victims and killers. He fills in the gaps with dialogue that may have taken place and the feelings the victims might have had during the home invasion. It’s a true story but very engaging read, plus it has a beautiful cover!

Basically birthed the true crime genre / creative non-fiction genre. Capote was a problematic figure, even as he wrote this book, becoming entangled with his subjects in a compelling way. And his writing is beautiful.

complimenting strangers is such a fulfilling experience thats adds some positivity to both you and a strangers day, i think a lot of people are afraid of the other person thinking that they're weird or smth but how many times have you received a passing compliment and thought it was weird prolly not very often not to mention you'll prolly never see them again and you only live once

there's a deep sincerity that comes with talking to someone new to a scene or meeting new people in a hobby or space you enjoy that i feel is lost in the cynicism and inherent negativity of most social media platforms (present company excluded) and i think getting outside and meeting new people in your community is a really beautiful thing that more people should do
