cubitum eamus? @aptedo2 - Tumblr Blog

fuck yall who dont believe in dog-earing your books or writing in the margins or whatever. youre telling me a book whose spine isnt even broken in is cuter than one thats been loved? hm? youre telling me that circling passages in a literary frenzy cause you cant contain your passion for what youre reading isnt a “book lover” trait? bet you wont even buy books second hand, either. scum.

#im genuinely kidding do whatever you want with your books #a kid just told me i shouldnt disrepect my books by writing in them as though he didnt just fail our final #probably cause he dosent know what active reading is #literature #light academia #bookblr #dark academia

25 Black-owned bookstores you can support right now

while i don’t claim to be a “book blogger” by any account (more of a cranky publishing-person blogger most days), i know a lot of people have followed me through my book posts, so i’m taking advantage of that captive audience to boost these bookstores. shop them through their own websites and if you’re local, look into curbside pickup to minimize shipping costs and overhead. okay that’s all thanks bye stay safe.
