A wise woman once said… “if you want to publish a book, you’ve got to write the damn thing first.”

So this is me holding myself accountable, and pushing myself to hopefully one day live the life I’ve dreamt of since I was a little girl ✨

Lots of amazing memories to look back on! Got Calvin Harris tickets this month, saw MKTO in concert after 12 years, visited some beautiful bookstores with bestie @lovebugreading and ate a lot of yummy food 😋

What’s your 𝓡𝓪𝓲𝓷𝓫𝓸𝔀 𝓜𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬 𝓕𝓪𝓲𝓻𝔂 ? 🧚‍♀️💖

I’ve seen this little trend around recently and it’s just so adorable that I had to show off mine as well. I do in fact chew a lot of gum tbh so this matches just fine 😆
I’ve tagged a few friends that I’d love to see what their fairy is 🫶🏼

💭 Did you read this series growing up?

1 year of the literary gals club 🌷✨

what started as “should we start a book club?” turned into a whole year of showing up, reading together, and having the best conversations with the best company

some of you have been there every month, some have popped in once or twice and it’s all part of what makes it work

no pressure, just good books and even better discussions

thank you to all the gals who’ve joined us, and to the bookstores and cafés who’ve let us take over your spaces, we appreciate you more than you know

if you’ve been thinking about coming, this is your sign ✨
