hewwo swifties.. since our queen miss swift is releasing a new album tonight here are the updated sorters uwu!!

taylor swift

fearless

speak now

red

1989

reputation

lover

all songs (updated w/ lover!)

everything that happens in those rooms is literally the narrative of those albums.

Red room (red): her man makes her jealous/maybe cheating, the Taylor from the yellow room (fearless) is out of place, lots of friends

Black attic (rep): she holes up with just her lover and private time with nobody else

Pink room (lover): she's happy and close with him but also has happy time to herself here, a balance, happiness

Blue room (1989): when her fame spiked and her life became a fishbowl of voyeurs and any lover she had entered the fishbowl alongside her

Green room (debut): he's just putting up a frame showing they just began, she just plays instruments innocently enjoying her time with her lover, no real understanding of love yet

Purple (speak now): SHE IS JUST IN IT ALONE SINGING & PLAYING PIANO BECAUSE SHE WROTE IT BY HERSELF (they also have the cute dinner and dance in here, like the love she fantasized about on this album)

Yellow (fearless): playing board games and living life upsidedown - this one is the only one im not sure about? maybe that's the era where her life literally turned upsidedown from fame???

This is our place. We make the rules.

And there's a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you dear 💘

Have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years?

Can we always be this close forever and ever?

@taylorswift @taylornation

You're my, my, my, my lover

@taylorswift @taylornation 💘

This our place, we make the call  💘 💘

And I'm highly suspicious that everyone who sees you wants you

Recently Read: A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara

This book was torturous.

Like seriously. Just emotionally devastating from page one. At the very surface level it is about 4 college friends and their lives after moving to New York but what this book is actually about is trauma, friendship, recovery, and the ability or inability to move on with your life after unspeakable horror. Nature versus nurture. Whether or not people actually can change or if their fates are sealed from the very beginning.

I have really mixed feelings about this book. I’m confused because by the first 30 pages I knew it would be one of the best I read all year and by the first 100 I truly felt that it will be one of the best books I read in my life. It is compelling but maybe not enjoyable? Demanding and yet not satisfying. It can be emotionally manipulative and overdone and yet a simple and astonishing story with metaphor about front porch lights and summer honey had me closing the book and wiping away tears. 

“…things get broken, and sometimes they get repaired, and in most cases, you realize that no matter what gets damaged, life rearranges itself to compensate for your loss, sometimes wonderfully.”
