Books 4/10: Alex, Approximately by Jenn Bennett Ra

Books 4/10: Alex, Approximately by Jenn Bennett
Rating: ✩✩✩✩✩

I've had this Jenn Bennett book on my bookshelf for a very long time. I've read a few of her other books, but this is one that my best friend would always ask if I had read yet. Well, I finally read it. And it was the cutest read! I love me a good contemporary YA novel!

This was the week U2 dropped their first surprise

This was the week U2 dropped their first surprise EP of the year. I listened to Days of Ash on repeat and had to document it in my Hobonichi Weeks because it affected me (and I love it) so much. It even got me ranting on about the state of our world on the internet, which is something I don't normally do. But it's a mess; we're a mess. "We" as a civilization, I mean. "It" as in the World.

The songs on this particular album had me feeling all the things—sadness, anger, despair, and light, love, hope. It’s a shame that all of these feeling are true at the same time. I can never understand how we can all call ourselves human when we’ve collectively lost our humanity. (I’m generalizing here, but the last couple of years have felt like a global extinction of humanity.)

“There is no us, if there is no them.”

What makes humankind so beautiful is our differences and I can never understand how most can’t see we’re all the same in that. There's so much division and one too many sides. We all live in the inbetween, in the gray space, the "And Space" whether we want to admit it or not.

Whatever you believe in, I don’t care which side you’re on. What’s happening in Palestine, Israel, Ukraine, Russia, Iran...is wrong. What’s happening in the US is more of the same. Wrong, wrong, wrong. There’s no taking sides here. It’s all wrong no matter which coin you flip. All sides can be right, but all sides are wrong too—and that’s what people get stuck on. But when it’s innocent human lives being taken in the guise of faith, whatever faith…Fuck politics. This is all a morality war. And we need to stop being so mean to each other and learn compassion. At the end of the day, most of us want the same things anyway. There shouldn’t be an “other.” No one is above or beneath you. It’s just us, all of us. xx

I'm absolutely obsessed with the May 2026 Field Notes and Florals @cocoa_daisy kits! I added on the Creative and Deluxe Journaling kits because I loved this collection so much. I can wait to use these bits in my journals. I'm seriously going to try really hard not to hoard it all! xx

I'm still catching up on sharing all of my pages in my Hobonichi Weeks. I used the very cute @cocoa_daisy March spring kit to decorate these pages, only to document the biggest blizzard of the year in the northeast lol. xx

Books 3/10: Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan
Rating: ✩✩✩✩✩

I've been on a reading kick lately and have been picking up books about books. This was a very nice read after The Starless Sea. I really do like stories about unique secret libraries that hold various meanings of life. Mr. Penumbra was a nice modern take on that. Worth a read!
