In the Lost & Found

Reading and discovering diverse books.

About Me

I’m Ali (she/her), a Chicana (Mexican American) 24-year-old Southern California native currently living in Las Vegas.

I like reading from any genre, writing, sewing, Animal Crossing, going to concerts (pre-COVID), using too many parentheses, driving ’round until I get lost and finding my way back.

In the Lost and Found will feature posts on what I’ve been reading, what I’m up to in life, my favorite things, and more. I look forward to figuring it out along the way!

 #sowecanglow by Leesa Cross-Smith 💖 I haven't decided how I feel about it yet, but it's really reminding me how magical I and all of my friends were as teenagers, and now as adults. All the magic girl vibes!  I was inspired by the story Girlheart Cake with Glitter Frosting to grab some of the magical femme things I could find in my apartment. I totally did cry reading it- just a list of music, movies, artists, and a bunch of other stuff that I ABSORBED into my personality as an adolescent. Who knew a three-page list of things could be so relatable?! 💫
