My unhinged birthday month TBR so far. So far, because I have not yet gone to the library to check out books for this theme, and what says "motivated by joy/delight" more than a dozen (or more) books fresh from the library?
(The two library books already here are holdovers from June)
The stack so far:
Voidjunk, Issue Zero
I Never Liked You Anyway by Jordan Kurella
The Book of Delights by Ross Gay
Bluets by Maggie Nelson
I Wore My Blackest Hair by Carlina Duan
Record of a Spaceborn Few by Becky Chambers
You Should Be So Lucky by Cat Sebastian
A Rulebook for Restless Rogues by Jess Everlee
Something That May Shock and Discredit You by Daniel M. Lavery
Heaven Official's Blessing, vol. 5 by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu
A History Maker by Alasdair Gray
The Nineties by Chuck Klosterman
Fake Dates and Mooncakes by Sher Lee
Take a Hint, Dani Brown by Talia Hibbert
The True Deceiver by Tove Jansson
White Noise by Don DeLillo
Fluxo-Floema by Hilda Hilst
You Are My Sunshine by Octavia Cade
Patient Zero by Lydia Kang & Nate Pederson
Be the Sea by Clara Ward
There is clearly not enough poetry on this list, so I may add a Chen Chen rereading to my July plans.
To be clear, to be in this stack the book could be about/full of joy/delight, or when I picked the book up in my hands I was filled with joy/delight at the thought of reading it.
