Book Nook | March
What is there to celebrate in March? Women's History Month? St. Patrick's Day? The one-year anniversary of life being irreparably upended?
All of the above. For books this month, I took a cross between St. Patrick's Day/luck of the Irish and the symbol that appeared so prolifically last spring when the pandemic first hit.
The Rainbow!
Remember last March when everyone was scared and trying to cheer up. People were openly supportive and appreciative for front line workers and spreading messages of brighter days ahead. Is it me or did everyone seem nicer back then? Now everyone is mad and selfish and plain over it. While most of the world moves on, others are struggling. This marks the anniversary of a loved one dying or the loss of their job and the upheaval of the lifestyle they knew. It's not spring and rebirth, it's dredging up trauma. Most people are still waiting for that rainbow.
Sorry, that got kind of dark. But I take my role as the barometer of negativity seriously!
On the flip side, here are some beautiful books to consider for your shelves. All three are poignant for difficult times with the essential reminder that things usually do get better. With time, patience, and support, there are still brighter days ahead.
I really love Rain Before Rainbows. It has gorgeous illustrations and a heartfelt message. The World Made a Rainbow is a kids book about the global lock down. And How the Crayons Saved the Rainbow is also very uplifting and sweet. All three I highly recommend.
Give yourself some extra love this week if the anniversary of last year brings you stress, anxiety, and grief. It is not always possible for people to "move on" as easily as others and that's okay.
