“Until this point, Tiffany had assumed that abusers… must live in denial. If not, how could they go on? How could you hurt or degrade a person when you were fully cognisant of what you were doing? Well, it turned out you could…” ― Stephen King
If you’ve been following my blog, you know that I figured this would be a great place to list all of the books I read from 2013 to the present. I have broken these into multiple posts six months apart.
*Edit: You may notice that I’ve read less than half the books. I normally read over a six-month period. If you are following my Diary of a D.I.Y. MFA blog, you’ll note a noticeable decrease in events attended during this same time period. What happened? Read my poem, “Flashes of Terror,” from Lunation to find out. (*Edit: Added this paragraph on January 23, 2021).
