Got my kids asking “Is this Spider-Man?” Every time they show a new trailer at the Xbox games showcase 😂

A stack of books with the top book titled “I Got Abducted by Aliens and now I’m Trapped in a Rom-Com” by Kimberly Lemming in front of a pink phone and a neon sign that says “Leave a Message”

A new romance bookshop opened up in town and I’m so excited to find a local community of book lovers! Got a good haul today

Thank you for writing your story 🩷

Quote from a book: “Lia was only nineteen. Rae remembered turning twenty, spending the day in the grip of furious, uncontrollable tears. She'd raged because so many heroes were teenagers, even in books meant for adults. It felt like the age of magic was over for her, and all there was left to do was die. Nineteen-year-olds could die, too.” Sarah Rees Brennan Long Live Evil (Time of Iron Book 1)

Had to pause after reading this one. I lost a good friend to cancer at 19 and sometimes I forget how young we were.

Book is Long Live Evil by @sarahreesbrennan.bsky.social

There will still be parks and grocery stores and people out with their dogs.

You will just have things you cannot say, places you cannot attend in groups larger than a certain amount.

Meta’s algorithm promotes conflict. I try to avoid threads because it’s so messy!

Every time I watch #whitelotus I think of what it would be like if they featured a family with young kids then I remember that Daphne and Cameron left their kids at home last season for a reason

There’s good books where you can’t stop reading, and good books where you just want to take your time and savor the story. Sometimes I want to rush through my books but at the end of the day I want to make sure I enjoy it my way

Boston Market recently changed their name to Boston MARKET, a move that increased their market capitalization by 500%

Dark Horse takes seriously the allegations against Neil Gaiman and we are no longer publishing his works.

Confirming that the Anansi Boys comic series and collected volume have been cancelled.

Oh my god we’re kindred spirits because 💯 yes

It cracks me up because I’m like “what are Reddit admins doing to do? Hire actual paid moderators?” 😂

I’m not done with Onyx Storm yet but one thing that stuck out to me during Rebecca Yarros’ panel was how she felt a lot more confident writing this book. It really shows and I’m enjoying it more than I did Iron Flame

I am a conflicted Fourth Wing Lover.

However I am also a deeply devoted and fervent Lightlark Hater.

Come say hi if you see me at the Novo for the #onyxstorm event!!

Screen stating onyx storm is ready to borrow

Whoo-hoo onyx storm is finally available to borrow. Getting my hard copy tonight too!!

#onyxstorm #booksky #romantasy

I need my local fire departments to move off of the xitter app 😭 at least watch duty is able to push the updates through

There’s no way they only got one copy for all those holds but they’re usually pretty good about getting the other copies. I’m just being impatient!

I’m getting my hardcover tomorrow night but I wanted to read the kindle version… hoping my libraries get more copies soon

#empyrean #booksky #onyxstorm

I thought I’d start early but I’m just trying to remember what I can from Iron Flame without getting too sleepy 😩

Would love to join if there’s room!

I loved the Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi and I’m excited to read the Daevabad trilogy down the line. Love your other book suggestions too, I’m always searching for my next read

Screenshot stating “In regards to identity, Shannon is a white convert to Islam; a faith and community in which she's found great solace and one that has significantly influenced her work. At this point in her career, she prefers to keep her personal and family life private, but if you're interested in reading more, you can do so here. She should not be considered for lists of BIPOC writers.”

I love this list! Just thought I’d point out that SA Chakraborty has asked not to be added to these types of lists www.sachakraborty.com/about.html

I tried but it’s really hard on a reread. You already know what happens so it’s harder to ignore the flaws. I’ve been dreading the Iron Flame reread because of it

Finished my Fourth Wing reread. Its flaws are so much more glaringly painful on a reread. I don’t think I’ll finish Iron Flame before Onyx Storm but I do want to try avoiding the internet as much as possible tomorrow so who knows how far I’ll get 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m absolutely in love with your home library 😍 goals

Where are my #booksky people at? I need more book friends. Here is a picture of my home library so don’t get lost. It’s cluttered at the moment because I need more shelves and I’m running out of space. #booklovers #booktok

I’ve been added to various starter packs just by asking! Best of luck

I just checked. All you have to do is click past a popup that basically says “thanks Donald Trump” and kachow! The US Congress has no more legislative authority!
