Childhood bedroom book unhaul 😥📚🙌

[@PageTurnersWithKatja]

I never got to do this. My mother gifted all my childhood books (mostly Nancy Drew and the Hardy) boys to a school when I was 16, i got home, and my shelves were absolutely empty. I was devastated for weeks and by the time it no longer popped to mind regularly at 18 I had an 11 year old approach me at my school going "are you the Katja whose name is in so many books at x school?" I felt like a minor celebrity 😂

60 books is fantastic, Alexis. It must feel pretty cathartic.

Oh wow, I don't blame you for being devastated! That's so nice that at least you got to see your books being passed on too others. It was really cathartic, even though it doesn't look like I cleared much space! xx
