In Invisible Lines, geographer Maxim Samson draws readers into the unseen architecture of our world— curious and yet invisible borders, boundaries, and barriers that we humans take for granted. Yet these places shape our identities, countries, politics, languages, customs and histories. This is an absolutely fascinating deep dive into how lines—both literal and metaphorical—divide, define and disorient us. #MaximSamson #Geography #Politics #History #InvisibleLines #Book #Review #BookReview

Comforting Thought: There are spaces meant for you
“i know you squeeze into tight spaces
with the hope that you may fit
without aching.
there are spaces meant for you
that will not require you to bend
in order to belong safely.”

Book Review The Full Moon Coffee Shop by Mai Mochizuki
This is the perfect transportive holiday reading. An uplifting and psychedelic novel about a mystical and ephemeral cafe-on-wheels that appears on the full moon where gigantic cat waiters serve human passers-by with coffee, cake and an astrological reading of their past, present and future. If it sounds cosy, well it really is! It’s a bit like a Murakami novel but less dark and forboding and more heavy on the kawaii-cute.
