Reposting @seedsofconsciousness_:⠀ ...⠀ ""Most of the luxuries and many of the so-called comforts of life are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind." — Thoreau.⠀ .⠀ ⠀ Henry David Thoreau (1817 – 1862) was an American essayist, poet, and philosopher.⠀ A leading transcendentalist, he is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay "Civil Disobedience", an argument for disobedience to an unjust state.⠀ Thoreau's books, articles, essays, journals, and poetry amount to more than 20 volumes. ⠀ Among his lasting contributions are his writings on natural history and philosophy, in which he anticipated the methods and findings of ecology and environmental history, two sources of modern-day environmentalism. ⠀ His literary style interweaves close observation of nature, personal experience, pointed rhetoric, symbolic meanings, and historical lore, while displaying a poetic sensibility, philosophical austerity, and Yankee attention to practical detail.⠀ He was also deeply interested in the idea of survival in the face of hostile elements, historical change, and natural decay; ⠀ at the same time he advocated abandoning waste and illusion in order to discover life's true essential needs.⠀ Thoreau is sometimes referred to as an anarchist.⠀ Though "Civil Disobedience" seems to call for improving rather than abolishing government—"I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government".⠀ Thoreau died on May 6, 1862, at age 44 after having suffered from tuberculosis since 1835.⠀ Towards his end, his friends were alarmed at his diminished appearance and were fascinated by his tranquil acceptance of death. ⠀ When his aunt Louisa asked him in his last weeks if he had made his peace with God, Thoreau responded, "I did not know we had ever quarreled."⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀ #henrydavidthoreau #thoreau #transcend #poems #poet #emerson #waltwhitman #philosophy #writing #art #nature #humanity #enlightenment #history #philosophyquote #life #wisdom #knowledge #literaturelover #stoic" — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/3cC9bQZ

(Allllways loves #vonnegut and his #storydiagram FIND WHAT MAKES YOU AND PURSUE THAT RABBIT HOLE ENDLESSLY. Neglect the coping/comfort yearns of our addictively “entertaining” and hypnotic world to become a daily or weekly student/practitioner of all things related to your growth and the growth of your vision/projects🎬🧠Like college with the degrees.. it’s ok.. accepted.. and encouraged that you switch majors and disciplines as you grow📚🎟This is but one of many ways in how you transcend being the person that’s not serving your future you anymore.. confidence issues fade.. and you peers/friends/partners enhance exponentially, but not limited to🚨🖤Happy #writerslunchtimetips 💎🎟💎) . Repost @ldmichelsen @tonyay84 @jacquelinethefrostqueen @junglejuice40 @crystal_tribe111 @poetic_outlaws ・・・ Once upon a time there was an American author named Kurt Vonnegut. For his master’s thesis in anthropology for the University of Chicago he had an idea about the structure of stories. The basic idea was that a story’s main character has ups and downs that can be graphed to reveal the stories. He said once in an interview that the thesis “was rejected because it was so simple and looked like too much fun.” I came across this while doing research for my BA thesis and thought this was interesting. It’s a different take on the structure of stories. I didn’t realise the similarities between the New Testament and Cinderella 😅😂 What do you find most interesting from or about Vonnegut’s story shapes? 📖 Disclaimer: Photo designed by Maya Eilam (mayaeilam.com) Sources: A Man without a Country and Palm Sunday by Kurt Vonnegut . . . . . #ldmichelsen #shapesofstories #kurtvonnegut #kurtvonnegutquote #literaturelovers #storystructure #storyteller #writer #writinglife #writingcommunity #athomewriting #igwriter #screenwriting #selftaughtscreenwriting #screenwriterspirit #scriptchat #screenwriterslife #dyslexicscreenwriters #storybreachtv #indiescreenwriter #screenwriterslife #writersoulsupport #justkeepwriting #indiehollywood #writersbynight #screenwriter #writersworkoutbuddy #storybreach https://www.instagram.com/p/B8uGHIGg56S/?igshid=410kxqjttzs5

✨and Pub Day!!✨

The Hurricane Wars by Thea Guanzon

@theaguanzon

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Talasyn has always been a soldier in the Hurricane Wars. Growing up without her family has taught her to fight for her country, but to hide her light magic. Alaric is the heir and prince of the Night Empire, which has sought to conquer and destroy Talasyn’s home for the past decade. His shadow magic is the equal and opposite of hers, and in a deadly battle both of their powers converge and create a greater force. Will these two sworn enemies survive when they are faced with an impending threat to their world, or will joining Light with Shadow be the only way to end this war?

Thea Guanzon has truly outdone herself!! I have been a fan of hers since she first started on AO3, so I was SO excited when she announced her first book. THW is every bit Reylo mixed with Filipino culture/setting and enemies to lovers that Thea is so great at writing!! It does take about 5-7 chapters to get the world building out of the way, but it’s worth it to dive into Talasyn & Alaric’s story. The banter, sexual tension, and Filipino influence are my favorite parts (plus every reference to Alaric looking like Adam Driver🤤). The Hurricane Wars is out now, so run to your bookstore and get it!

Read if you love:

⚔️: Romantasy

🖤: Enemies to Lovers

🛶: Southeast Asian inspired setting

💍: Arranged Marriage

✊🏽: Brown representation

Thank you @harpervoyagerus for gifting me with an arc! 💜

🌙 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰🌙

Ace of Spades

Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

This book is accurately described as Gossip Girl meets Get Out. With dark academia vibes this mystery/thriller dives deep into issues like high school drama, homophobia, racism, and more! Popular girl Chiamaka has nothing in common with musical prodigy Devon but when a masked bully starts attacking them both…they must find out what it takes to bring down a hidden nemesis!

How do I put into words what this book means to me and how it had impacted me?!😩 I’ll try! The writing in this book is incredible. Chiamaka and Devon are so complex, with flaws but also the capacity to grow which they do by the end of the book! And the THEMES!!!!! I want to have an in depth discussion with Faridah (or a book club lol) about all the subtle/not subtle themes throughout the book—like the LITERAL SPADES!

*spades are so poignant in Black culture!*

I could go on but I won’t spoil anything! Addressing issues like systemic racism, homophobia, etc. is very tough and uncomfortable for people to talk about, but in this book it is digestible in a way where you can see how it affects these two main characters so radically. I strongly encourage everyone to read this book!

*also I got this beautiful Revolution Card Deck that I thought was so fitting for this book! It features different prominent Black leaders throughout the deck🤍*

𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 (+): Black representation, LGBTQ+ representation, audiobook narrators are great!,

𝐧𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 (-): none

𝐂𝐖/𝐓𝐖: mention of death

🌙 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰.🌙

legendborn by tracy deonn

@tracydeonn

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

(no spoilers)

this book is the epitome of black girl magic!✨I was hooked from page one, and the incredible writing plus the twists and turns kept me under this book’s spell. secret societies, demons, king arthur & knights of the round table, slavery, grief, romance, and sassy banter! it’s no wonder this book has jumped to one of my favorites—book two is being ordered as we speak!

although I loved the setting of fantasy/secret society of this story it was the characters that touched me—Bree, Nick & Sel. they are so complex, amazing, brave, tortured, and resilient. I can’t wait to see what happens to them next!

(+) 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬: instantly captures the readers (my) attention, LGBTQ+ representation, authentic black/brown people representation (!!)🤎

(-) 𝐧𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬: none lol

𝐂𝐖/𝐓𝐖: description of slavery abuse, brief mention (not descriptive) of sexual assault, mention throughout story of grief from death of a loved one.
