Welcome to the Moratorium Library!
The Library opened on May 1, 2022. It was initially born of my determination to curb my spending, save some space in my one-bedroom apartment, and read the many, many, many books collecting dust on my assorted shelves. The goal was simple: stop buying new books and finally read all the books I already owned. The blog, I was sure, would keep me honest.
Check in every Sunday for book reviews, updates and insights from my life, and a list of the books I inevitably purchased that week. Spoiler alert: I routinely break the very first rule of the Library. What can I say? I love a bookstore.
New? Lost? Start here: Opening Day (and Some Ground Rules)
The Spark of Inspiration
I’ve been thinking about how to incorporate more manuscript and writing content.
Five-Star Reread: An Ode to ‘American Woman’
But the book is important enough to me that I decided it deserved its own dedicated post.
And Eve Was Weak
I have no restraint, and I believe that (some) rules were made to be broken.
For the Love of Lived-In Notebooks
I moved home after college and spent the four following years living in my childhood bedroom, collecting stuff.
Addendum: Billy Joel at the Garden
I forgot to mention the most exciting part of last week. Yes, this deserved its own post.
