The week is finally over, peeps. The weekend has been summoned. Egyptian God Cards be praised (Yu-Gi-Oh reference, fight me). Catch up on all you need to read and more with Bookstr’s hotly contested picks for bookish tweets of the week. As always, feel free to hit us up @BookstrOfficial with any and all submissions.
Now, unwind with me. (Tsuitta cardo, open).

Saying ‘i’m writing a book’ is

-predictable

-exciting
-feel powerful
