This week marks five years of @nycbookgirl 💛 In the past five years, I’ve visited hundreds of bookstores, met authors I admire, hosted events I won’t forget, worked with incredible partners, and made some of my best friends. I’ve explored the library beneath the @metmuseum, taken over socials for the @bkbookfest, curated a shelf in @westsider_books, and started my own @littlefreelibrary. I’ve made books my job, my side hustle, and my passion project. Being @nycbookgirl has completely changed my life. These photos are a little stroll down memory lane. Over the past five years, I’ve grown as a reader, a writer, a recommender, and a content creator, this space ebbing and flowing along with the highs and lows of life. Thank you to anyone, new and old followers alike, who has ever taken one of my book recs or tried a new nyc spot or listened to one of my playlists or worn a jumpsuit on a Thursday or even just stuck around for Cleo’s escapades. Ily, bookworms ♥️ First photo is credit to @bridgetbadore 📸 2019
