LOVE Stephen Florida.

This book was already on my radar, but your comparison has leveled up. Thank you!

As a very casual fan (if that), I am completely obsessed with the new Gorillaz album The Mountain.

Sounds great on vinyl too.

I know there are like...7000 more important and vital things going on.

But just once, I'd love for a device to remember that I've clicked on "remember this device for 90 days" (in the realm of bypassing 2-factor authentication). Like...why bother if you're not gonna remember?

A photo of Lily King’s Heart the Lover.

A photo of a page of the book with the following text:

β€˜What good is any other virtue without love?’

β€˜In literature love is a weakness. Othello is easily manipulated by lago because of his love for Desdemona.Anna Karenina throws herself under a train.'

Othello places his trust in lago, not Desaemona.
Anna Karenina's society does not allow her to be with Vronsky. Love is not the weakness. People get in its way.
People are weak and perilous, not love.'

She pursed her red lips and moved on. β€˜I have read in several interviews from years ago that Independent People is one of your favorite books. Is this true?

'It is. Maybe my very favorite.'
There was some spontaneous clapping from the
audience.
'Why? Why this one about a miserable s
farmer?'
'You know how you can remember exactly when and where you read certain books? A great novel, a truly great one, not only captures a particular fictional expe-rience, it alters and intensifies the way you experience your own life while you're reading it. And it preserves it, like a time capsule. Even though nearly everyone in the audience is Icelandic and English is not their first language, I can feel that they are with me.”

I love the Lily King Writers & Lovers expanded universe!

Read this in only three swift sittings!
(And teared up a touch the last stretch.)

So good.

Chapter 1 of Moby Dick, page 1 

The phrase β€˜Call me Ishmael’, the first sentence of the book, is highlighted in blue, with careful highlighting on the very big C at the start. Above this, written in ballpoint pen β€˜His name’

Thank you! I was at first super excited about the triangle of the sky to fit in the glass, and then the other components ended up being even more "perfect" for the arrangement.
