Georgia O'Keefe and "doing nothing all summer,"--two of my favorite things. I appreciate this write-up, Grace. :) Hope you're well this week? Cheers, -Thalia

Yu & Me is my absolute fav independent bookstore in NYC! As usual your taste is impeccable. Loved Margo and can't wait for the tv show—I think Elle Fanning will be perfect in it. I enjoyed the first part of Breasts and Eggs, but definitely found the second part more challenging.

Agreed! I had a really hard time moving forward in the 2nd part of the book and I can't put my finger on why. Looking forward to the tv adaptation of Margo as well! Thank you for all the kind words, Claire! Hope you're doing great!

Yu & Me is a great book store! I will happily send you that shirt if you'd like, I love supporting those folks.

I also really loved the friendship-centric story of Babes and as someone who has lots of friends going the baby route while I choose to remain baby-less, the story felt very personal. I really wanted to see Thelma but I missed it while it was in theaters - absolutely can't wait to watch once it's streaming somewhere.

You are so kind! The encouragement in the comments is the push I needed to order it online.

Babes felt really personal to me too and the same with Thelma. I was pleasantly surprised to see Thelma available to rent on Apple TV, but I'm sure some streaming service will make it available soon!

You need that t-shirt!!! Incredible. I love niche bookstores.

I am a very hot sleeper... intrigued by this comforter!!

A rule I live by (that I will never shut up about) is no videos or facetimes without headphones, unless I'm alone! It's so rude!

TOTALLY AGREE! I'm always stunned when I encounter people who play their stuff out loud with complete disregard for others!
