If Blair and Serena were poor and nomadic and curious. Fashionable and weird, I thought I didn’t like it at first and all of a sudden I had read 100 pages without looking up. An ode to the introspective party girl that I am in my head. 

I have romanticized living a summer in NY like this but I know I do not have the mental wherewithal to function with this kind of unending instability. It is so glamorous and I would not make it. However, this book means a lot to me. Shoutout to my bestie Carla for slipping it into my bag as I left her apartment because she knew I needed it.
