February 2026 Books

* Hamnet ¹ by Maggie O'Farrell - Autumn had been telling me how much she loved this book ever since it first came out. It took a bit for me to get into it, but Hamnet was such a lovable character and his parents devastation at his passing was overwhelming. I'll need to prepare myself if I ever decide to see the film version, because the audiobook had me in tears.

¹ - audiobook
² - abridged version
* - liked
♥ - loved
Any unmarked titles were, in my opinion, so-so.

Before leaving Instagram for good at the end of February, I went through all my "saved" folders and took screenshots and videos of posts that I wanted to remember. The longest list to go through was all the ones I saved from The Aids Memorial. There were so many touching stories that I didn't want to forget. Out of the hundreds I had saved, I selected a small group of ones that stood out most for me. Here's one of them.
