    I love seeing you and Alex together. What a beautiful friendship 🤎 Also, LOVE LOVE LOVE your hair in a bun. All your features just shine! . . . I wholeheartedly agree with you about going outside. No matter the weather, I'll read outside, go for long walks, sit at an outdoor cafe (even if briefly), and I always feel better. (And I live in a very cold and gray climate.) It's been my remedy against the winter blues for as long as I can remember. Sometimes it's hard to motivate myself to do it, but once I'm out I don't regret it . . . Lastly, I bought a graphic novel about Billie Holiday for high school students. (I'm a librarian) And they absolutely loved diving into history through this format. They were more susceptible to learning about her because of the beautiful illustrations, than if they would have had to read a textbook. I'm all for exploring different genres to spark joy and curiosity!

      @ of course! And yes I have read that one too. I think that one was my third favorite of all her books. Sooo good just love her style of writing it engulfs you and makes you think a lot! At the end of it all is a standalone even though some characters from her sun series are referenced a few times. I would say it’s a slowish burn, sports romance. Also her books are usually in 3rd POV (which I generally don’t prefer but it works for her!) but this one was in 1st POV which was also interesting and a pleasant surprise. I won’t say too much more though for fear of giving spoilers.

    If you can't afford designer bags and feel a certain way about expensive designer bags, then don't watch this video. Like do you read a video title before clicking on it? The title makes it clear that the video will be about designer bags. I find these types of videos very helpful and although I can't afford these bags yet, I know one day I will. I wanted to know which designer bag was truly worth my hard-earned money and one that I would get the most out of. That being said, if you're reading this, thank you for sharing this video with us and please make more videos like this. Maybe kislux is your next choice?
