It takes me right back to my teenage years…I can almost relive it. I still remember the awe, the sophistication, that first taste of existentialism, unforgettable.
Nausea by Jean-Paul Sartre
Teenage years, a blur of wanting to connect, to belong, to feel seen. No matter who you were, there was always that quiet void inside. This book understood it before I did.
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
The Outsider — where existence feels both heavy and hollow. Camus captures that quiet ache of being alive, of watching life unfold without belonging to it. I remember reading it as a teenager and feeling seen in the strangest way.
The Outsider by Albert Camus
Shakespeare 🎭
Love. Betrayal. Whispered deceit. Shakespeare at his finest. 🎭
Othello - Entire Play
Macbeth is a story that never leaves you. The weight of ambition, the haunting pull of fate, the echo of guilt, it’s all so human. Every time I read it, I find a piece of myself between the lines.

Philosophy
I was captivated by the author's ability to weave timeless wisdom with the nuanced tensions that define philosophical thought.
