Lulu Tenney reads sex and rage by Eve Babitz
“I brought a new book because I finished another one, One day I will say nice things By David Sedaris – I had this in my bag today; sex and rage Author: Eve Babitz. I read two pages in the last show and then got interrupted because I had to get dressed or something, but that was the book I was reading. Or I’m trying start read. I will Read it, maybe when I’m not so busy, when I have some time.
Your hair is the perfect place to read a book because the hair dryer masks any noise outside and there’s no one to ask you to move your eyes. I’m definitely trying to avoid doomscrolling – I feel like during fashion week you end up checking your shows on Instagram and catching up on what’s going on. I’ve been listening to a playlist of chants and meditation songs that my friend made and while you’re listening you don’t really want to get into doomscrolling, you just want to zone out and think, so having a book with you helps. “
Matilda Gvargliani Reading pulp Charles Bukowski
“I’m reading pulp Author: Charles Bukowski on my iPad. That’s very important because I would say, it’s a kind of meditation for me. It’s like a healthy form of dopamine production. Yes, it’s dopamine, but it’s healthy and it’s not like scrolling. Did you know that your brain doesn’t respond well to scrolling? Moreover, it is a great stimulus for reading. It’s slower – almost like green tea instead of coffee. “
Maura Ponte Reading Crown of Midnight Author: Sarah J. Maas
“I’m from Argentina and I’ve been here for a month now and this is my first season in Paris and my first show ever, so it’s kind of crazy. My family in Argentina, they’re like screaming, I feel like I’m in a dream, really. I don’t know a lot of people here because it’s my first show and sometimes I really need to disconnect. I started reading Crown of Midnight This week’s article by Sara J. Maas – very good. I’ve been reading Sarah J Maas; she’s the best. This is the second book in the series, I also read the first in the ACOTAR series, which I consider to be my two favorites in the fantasy genre. “
Sam Saba is listening. wayward pine tree Blake Crouch
“So I’m listening wayward pine tree. It’s science fiction and I’m only halfway through it and I’m so confused about what’s going on because you can’t tell if this guy is crazy or if he’s trapped somewhere. It’s all over the place, but it definitely keeps my mind busy when we’re spending a long time in casting and doing the show. It’s so good. I am too impatient and I think I really need to learn to be patient. Doomscrolling before a show isn’t great, I mean, it makes you anxious. If I’m on my phone, I try to be more proactive and not on social media: maybe I follow the fashion shows that are happening on Vogue Runway, or maybe I build mood boards for myself on Pinterest. I feel like there are better ways to scroll on your phone and have fun without it becoming so toxic. “
