slaughterhouse90210: “There is a limit to the amount of misery and disarray you will put up with, for love, just as there is a limit to the amount of mess you can stand around a house. You can’t know the limit beforehand, but you will know when you’ve reached it. I believe this.”— Alice Munro

The flip-top cigarette pack is one of the most successful pieces of packaging design in history. TankBooks pay homage to this iconic form by employing it in the service of great literature. We have launched a series of books designed to mimic cigarette packs – the same size, packaged in flip-top cartons with silver foil wrapping and sealed in cellophane. This is awesome. I don’t know why, but I’ve always loved the design of cigarette packs. I don’t even smoke. This is just beautiful design. Would love to see some more books in the series. Maybe some John Steinbeck?

I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once

The Fault in Our Stars

(this is honestly the best description I’ve heard of what falling in love is like)



We are all going, I thought, and it applies to turtles and turtlenecks, Alaska the girl and Alaska the place, because nothing can last, not even the earth itself. The Buddha said that suffering was caused by desire, we’d learned, and that the cessation of desire meant the cessation of suffering. When you stopped wishing things wouldn’t fall apart, you’d stop suffering when they did.

Looking for Alaska

(I can’t get over this book. It’s been a long time since I’ve read a book that makes me think about it so much after I’m finished with it)



Sometimes you lose a battle. But mischief always wins the war
Looking for Alaska
