[ 1st august, 2023 - 1/30 days of summer ]

some of the books i brought with me to the countryside and part of my tbr for the next month. i'm super excited to get to all of them and can't wait to share my thoughts, but also hear what everyone else has to say. slightly scared of The Brothers Karamazov, but i really want to get to it because it'll be useful for a humanities class i'm taking next semester. have to finish The Priory of the Orange Tree first, tho <33
