Here are some of my top favorite books, in no particular order...
1. Me Talk Pretty One Day by David Sedaris
"Hugh consoled me, saying, 'Don't let it get to you. There are plenty of things you're good at.' When asked for some examples, he listed vacuuming and naming stuffed animals. He says he can probably come up with a few more, but he'll need some time to think."
2. The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
"Better never means better for everyone...it always means worse, for some."
3. American Psycho by Bret Ellis Easton
"All it comes down to is this: I feel like shit but look great."
4. A Tale for The Time Being by Ruth Ozeki
"It made me sad when I caught myself pretending that everybody out there in cyberspace cared about what I thought, when really nobody gives a shit. And when I multiplied that sad feeling by all the millions of people in their lonely little rooms, furiously writing and posting to their lonely little pages that nobody has time to read because they're all so busy writing and posting, it kind of broke my heart."
5. Bel Canto by Ann Patchett
"Most of the time, we're loved for what we can do rather than who we are. It's not such a bad thing, being loved for what you can do."
6. Night Film by Marisha Pessl
"God, the boring relative everyone ignores-no one calls, no one writes-until they need a serious favor."
7. The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
"If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed."
8. We The Living by Ayn Rand
"Life, undefeated, existed and could exist. She smiled, her last smile, to so much that had been possible."
9. The Hundred Secret Senses by Amy Tan
"Too much happiness always overflows into tears of sorrow."
10. Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susann
"Never judge anyone by another's opinions. We all have different sides that we show to different people."
I'm currently reading Theft by Finding: Diaries 1977-2002 by David Sedaris, what about you?
Join me on Goodreads, lets be friends! I also have a fun Pinterest board dedicated to reading.
Now, lets get to the postcards! So, I have only a small collection of book-related postcards, only 14, but here are some of my favorites!
