Recent watches, reads...and vacation packing buys + tips

An overdue update!

I started writing this post after getting home from my family’s annual week-long beach vacation, in early December, and when it hits your inbox, it will be a new year. So: Happy new year :)

Our November trip has become one of my favorite weeks of the year, mostly for the uninterrupted reading time it provides me. So without further ado, allow my first recommendation of this first letter of 2025 to be Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors, which hits on the complicatedness of the dynamics between sisters poignantly. I devoured it within the first like, four days of our trip and quickly found myself missing the sisters.
