melmeli · a reading shelf
my dear books
born to read, always mid-something. a shelf of favorites and the lines i keep, along with the ones that break me a little.
the shelf
my dear secret
The truth about the shelf is that it is less about the books and more about the parts of myself I found in them. Somewhere between Jude refusing to be small and Evangeline believing in a second chance, I started keeping the people I love the way these stories keep hope: badly, but forever.
