It’s actually so jarring how when I look up and see the moon, it seizes me so wholly and immediately. Like walking home from the train at night and being like, “Wait why is it so bright right now?” and looking up and boom, clear sky, blueish half moon. Even just now, I was just opening my window and there’s this weird luminous presence above me so I look up and boom. Moon. It is so bright and seriously there.

Anyway, here’s a list of books I read last year.
