Little Weirds

What it feels like

Reading this collection feels like stepping inside a greenhouse filled with strange, blooming, and slightly overgrown plants. It is a meandering, deeply intimate experience that invites you to sit with the raw ache of heartbreak while simultaneously marveling at the absurd beauty of being alive. The prose is wildly imaginative, reading more like lyrical prose poetry than traditional memoir, full of metaphors that are as eccentric as they are precise. You are wrapped in an atmosphere that is at once bittersweet and sun-warmed, guided by a voice that is radically vulnerable, funny, and tender. It is a book for anyone who has ever felt bruised by the world but still wants to look at it with wide-eyed, unironic wonder, offering a gentle reminder that healing is a weird and beautiful process.
