Unusual Eulogies | 2023
My reading in 2023 was defined by haunting intimacy and fractured perspectives. I was drawn to voices that spoke from the margins of memory, of society, of reality itself, and to stories that explored the raw, complex anatomy of trauma, love, and identity. It was a year of feeling viscerally, in the gut and the bones, often leaving me beautifully unsettled.

Unusual Eulogies | 2022
2022 was a year of literary deconstruction and raw voice. I found myself drawn to stories that peeled back the layers of storytelling itself — examining classic structures, dissecting narrative power, and marveling at bold, unconventional voices. It was a year spent equally in the workshop and the gallery, appreciating both the blueprint and the masterpiece.

Unusual Eulogies | 2021
This year was all about stories of rebellion and quiet defiance, but told with a haunting, tension-soaked mood. I craved books where the tension wasn’t just in the plot, but in the very air the characters breathed.
