Time and it's rapid persistence have kept me constantly bobbing between clarity and anxiety. In a recent moment of stillness I realized that I have 2,843 days left of being in my twenties; I began to consider, in what ways would I like to have grown by age 30?
Books. This is what immediately came to mind. I want to know my classics, discover the best novels of our decade, and fall in love with new authors. In what other time of our lives will we have so much freedom to indulge in 500-1000 page novels, or actually spend time appreciating those books we "read" in high school? So welcome, welcome to The Floral Book Case, a blog dedicated to drafting "the perfect reading list", with updates on my favorite quotes as well as my thoughts following the completion of each book. Journey with me as I dive into poetry, essays, screenplays, novels, autobiographies, and short stories from authors that range from Charles Dickens to Tina Fey.
