#adifferentdrummer

Jan, 28th || a library haul. One of the things that I love about living in the UK is going to the library and finding all the books I wanna read, and I don’t have to pay a single penny 🙌🏼🙌🏼 . 🌻 How Saints Die 🌻 Empire of Sand 🌻 Eleanor (which I have already finished) 🌻 The Fifth Season (+ the rest of the trilogy) 🌻 A Different Drummer 🌻 A Fine Balance . . What books have you borrowed recently? Or bought? ❄️ • • • #libraryhaul #howsaintsdie #empireofsand #eleanor #thefifthseason #adifferentdrummer #africanamericanliterature #afinebalance #rohintonmistry #canadianliterature #bookishlove #booksbooksbooks #booksbooksandmorebooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BtMC79_Hq9y/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7ri9nlv8a4jr

So excited to pop into the tiny historic village of Corolla and see an @islandbookstoreobx outpost. And even better they had #adifferentdrummer. And so we excitedly talked to Madison and she told us all about her aunt, the writer Mary Karlick. And I look over to see they also had #dem and #adropofpatience!! They also had a really nice selection of kids books and lots of diversity on the shelves. What a warm, inviting place. Oh and I found an amazing #popupbook for me. Did I ever say how much I love #popupbooks? #obx2020 #corollaobx #williammelvinkelley #dem_wmk (at Corolla, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEpQJGdBJWc/?igshid=rsykv7mxp476

Just a reminder that #adifferentdrummer is still being #read and #talkedabout. So #grateful. #repost @wmkelley ・・・ Seeing #kindwords and different #translations never gets old. Ever. #italy #Adifferentdrummer #Bronxwriters #blackwriters #blackhistorymonth #repost @claborzi2 ・・・ "sembra terribile che il massimo che uno può fare per le persone a cui vuole bene sia lasciarle stare" Un racconto che parla di libertà e di catene da spezzare. E di coraggio da trovare. Di schiavitù, di povertà, di fallimenti. Ma anche di rinascita. Di possibilità. Un racconto che parla di tutte le cose perse. E di quando all'improvviso, le abbiamo ritrovate. Bellissimo! Colonna sonora : Redemption song. Bob Marley. #unaltrotamburo#nneditore#williammelvinkelley#librisottolineati#libribelli#libridaleggere#librimania #librichepassione#libridaleggereprimadimorire#librodelgiorno#librerie#libreriebelle https://www.instagram.com/p/B88ZdBrBRyS/?igshid=ouv5ecftmwbz

A repost of a repost cuz it’s just that exciting. #repost @wmkelley ・・・ This is like the best of ALL POSSIBLE WORLDS: 1.) Someone we know. 2.) someone we know who’s traveling to another country. 3.) someone we know who’s traveling to another country AND found a A Different Drummer in that language. 4,) someone we know who’s traveling to another country AND found a A Different Drummer in that language AND snapped a picture in its natural habitat. 5.) someone we know who’s traveling to another country AND found a A Different Drummer in that language AND snapped a picture in its natural habitat AND is reading it in that language. AND all the above, while listening to the US Audio versión that is narrated by another friend. ALL. THE. FEELS!!! #repost @smcampion ・・・ Adding this to my Italian practice, @thebearmaiden! I’ll attempt to read a chapter in Italian, then listen to @jsmooth995 to see how well I understood. 🤞💜 #adifferentdrummer #unaltrotamburo #williammelvinkelley #literature #translations #jaysmooth995 #nneditore https://www.instagram.com/p/B7bjpOOBklK/?igshid=ipzrezzztams

My poppy in 2012. He got interviewed for a magazine that year, and they used this picture. #WilliamMelvinKelley #adifferentdrummer #tenyearsofphotos #endofthedecade #lookingback #instaphoto #canonphotography #retro #2012 #2009to2019 (at Dunbar Apartments) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6zCAT7hlpD/?igshid=1571abi4mwu2c
