A LETTER TO MY YOUNGER SELF
Dear Cari, Today is an exceptionally boring day. You’ll do laundry, be annoyed at your brother—although what else is new—and you’ll be sad that you couldn’t get to the Pacific to see it once more before you make the biggest move you’ll ever make so far.

ABOUT BOOKS
Old Books 2017 • Photography: Carissima Keatley There's something wonderful about books, especially old ones. The smell--which many people find disgusting--is like sweet nectar to those who can truly call themselves bibliovores.
