Thank you for everybody who sent me cards to my dorms, I really appreciated and loved them all! My finals have now finished and so I have returned home. Here are the last two cards I got before leaving!
Thank you to u/nirelleth for the Anne of Green Gables postcard. I LOVE Anne of Green Gables. As a child, it was a real comfort book for me and a few years ago I started rereading the entire series. So getting this card was a real delight for me! Anne Shirley has been such a comfort character for me and so I was so excited to have this and tape it to my wall. It's funny you mentioned that you're reading Flowers for Algernon, since I have read it in the past. I personally didn't like it because of the way it depicts autism (as someone who is autistic and a lot of autistic people, it felt like it just reinforced some of the stereotypes we're sick of), but if you enjoy it I'm glad for you! I remember even if I didn't like it, I liked the way it was written and its writing style. Enjoy yourself and thanks again!
Thank you to u/WildflowerField90 for the card of a red/orange tree in a snowy field. It's beautiful, with the best aspects of autumn & winter! I also liked the stickers and tape you used on the envelope. I love foxes! I've read a lot of interesting books lately, thanks for asking! For class specifically, I read Bodega Dreams by Ernesto Quinonez, which I thought was really interesting, engaging, suspenseful, and even heartbreaking, as well as The Woman Warrior: Memoirs of a Girlhood Among Ghosts by Maxine Hong Kingston, which I thought I wouldn't enjoy, but found incredibly poetic and hauntingly engaging! I would recommend them both, if you think those are reads you'd like! Outside of class, I read two short story collections (A House is a Body by Shruti Swamy & I Hold a Wolf by the Ears by Laura von den Berg) which I thought were both such well-written stories, even if some of the stories got kind of similar to each other.
