[@JungianHeights]

I met my first boyfriend this year, we were long distance and edited a magazine together. He recently passed from Cancer which has devastated me and I am totally numb but through the year, he introduced me to some great authors. He introduced me to Jean-Paul Sartre and Beauvoir and the existentialist movement. These authors are incredibly enriching and they added to my personal philosophies on life. I was introduced to Honoré De Balzac and Jan Potocki (The Manuscript Found In Saragossa). We had a wonderful time discussing the politics and philosophies of these novels that so greatly enriched our lives, all the while enriching each other’s lives through our love and connection. He sent me so many books to go through and he was the pinnacle of intelligence and beauty. All of these books greatly improved my personal thought and I went on to discuss these in my personal essays and poetry.

[@gracesull78756]

I know I’m like a month late to the gig but I wanted to add my fave books of 2020 because I hadn’t seen them cropping up on booktok/booktube and I felt that they deserved some recognition ya know 1. Soul Tourists (Bernadine Evaristo) 2. A Monster Calls (Patrick Ness) 3. Call Me By Your Name (André Aciman) 4. The Children Act (Ian McEwan) 5. If Beale Street Could Talk (James Baldwin)
