"One thing about me, though, is I love a capitalist trap. See: pumpkin spice lattes." I LOVE THIS!!! Perfection. Also you better submit your ballot to the official bookstagram form!! Don't want your luminous picks not to be counted.
What is this list? I need to look it up. I am definitely not texting you and Traci at the crack of dawn every morning to discuss results and then all day long after. Nope, nope, that doesn’t sound like me at all. (Memorial and Heavy 4Lyfe, babeeeeeee)
Such a good list! My biggest takeaway from all of this is that I NEED to read James. So far I’ve been able to whittle my list down to 10 fiction & 10 nonfiction, but here’s my attempt to trim that down even further to ten total (alphabetically by author’s name for the same reason you couldn’t rank yours, haha):
