If Beale Street Could Talk by James Baldwin...wow. love when a book just ends on an absolute bombshell of a reveal. no more pages lingering on it, u just have to sit with what u just read. blew me away.

james had his finger on the pulse. i was first introduced to him via Sunny's Blues. what does it mean to be an artist nowadays? is it this feeling of the ice in your veins? ice that's starting to melt because you feel the passion of your work, of your dreams? i really liked Giovanni's Room... i think we all had that lover that we kept quiet in a room somewhere. maybe if the world knew of this love it would become tainted in a way. the vulnerability of this short but sweet book. if you have to hide your love ~ is it love? pour one out for james.

libraries are a super important part of our communities as a haven for knowledge and entertainment! you can check out a multitude of books or other media by owning a library card. using your library card can also show that members of the community (including u) find the library to be valuable, which can possibly lead to more funding opportunities for them. support ur local library!!!
