Slouching Towards Bethlehem by Joan Didion

4.0

i love the way joan didion writes about california, so detailed and intimate to the point where i miss my home and family there, even when she's describing another town. "the california we are talking about resembles eden" i am so full of love for california.

also "i hurt the people i cared about, insulted those i did not. i cut myself off from the one person who was closer to me than any other. i cried until i was not even aware i was crying and when i was not, cried in elevators and taxis and laundries" is way too applicable to me
