But why is Percy Newton literally the sweetest angel bean in existent? Like he’s so observant of Monty and all of his intricacies. He knows how to understand where Monty is coming from and goddammit, he’s so ungodly patient. MY HEART

Hi Cory! Read any good books lately?

Oh dear Nonny-who-calls-me-by-name, bold of you to assume I read those physical things with paper + covers! I love them, I really do, but/and the incredibly well-written AFTG fanfic out there has me deep under its spell. However, look: list o’ books!I love these three recently read YA works: 

The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas (If you see the movie, read the book too; they are complementary)

The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice + Virtue by Mackenzi Lee

Aristotle + Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Saenz (when is that sequel rolling out?!!)

Four of the non-fiction books I’m in the middle of:

So you want to talk about race by Ijeoma Oluo 

Women & Power by Mary Beard

The RBG workout by Bryant Johnson

Together is Better by Simon Sinek (the start with why guy)

On my wish list: 

Becoming by Michelle Obama

Decolonizing Wealth by Edgar Villanueva 

How about you love? Which books are you reading? (Oooh, and who are you dear one?!) XOXO, Cory

Can we also agree that Monty will worry about getting the perfect gift for Percy. ESPECIALLY since it's their first holiday officially together. And Percy probally thinks the same and worries that his isn't special enough to truly express his love for Monty.

25DOB: Best Debut

The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue | Mackenzi Lee

“God bless the book people for their boundless knowledge absorbed from having words instead of friends.”

There is so much diversity and relevant social commentary packed within this one short novel. It’s so funny, full of shenanigans, but it also deals with very serious issues from homophobia, racism, ableism, and more. I love Monty’s character progression, Percy is just the sweetest human being, and Felicity is amazing.

Henry Montague and Matty Healy would get along change my mind

Supremely chaste in all but thought.

Think I can borrow this as the title of my autobiography?
