In This Exclusive Excerpt From The Ground That Devours Us, Two Sisters Train to Kill Vampires In Post-Apocalyptic Charlotte Read the first chapter of Kalia Harris's debut The Ground that Devours Us, a dystopian enemies-to-lovers vampire romance

@pastemagazine.bsky.social‬ runs an exclusive excerpt from @kallanharris.bsky.social‬ 's debut THE GROUND THAT DEVOURS US out June 3 from Entangled Teen:

AHHHH!!

The Ground That Devours Us is available for request on Netgalley, so if you’d like to read it early before it hits shelves, be sure to request it! (There is a picture of the cover on this graphic)

My chaotic slayer girl and her annoying hot vampire are up on Netgalley, so run don’t walk if you want to read it early before the book hits shelves! (Actually, sprint as fast as you can because otherwise you may or may not be sucked dry by a vamp)

Weird how my WIP is garbage at 10pm and not garbage after some sleep and some coffee. Almost like pushing myself to keep working while exhausted is a bad idea. *stares into camera*

ROBBIE MCNEIL'S HIT LIST By Brianna Heath Imprint: Sourcebooks Brianna Heath's ROBBIE MCNEIL'S HIT LIST, a mystery romp following a contract killer who wants to run her karaoke bar with her queerplatonic soulmate in peace, but when one of her targets vanishes without a trace suddenly all of her rules go out the window, to MJ Johnston at Sourcebooks, in a two-book deal, by Jenna Satterthwaite at Storm Literary Agency (NA).

The vague era is over! I'm beyond excited to share the news that my debut novel will be coming to you in spring 2026 from Sourcebooks/Poisoned Pen Press. I'm so thrilled MJ gets my vision for this book & grateful to the amazing @jennaschmenna.bsky.social for helping find a perfect home for it ❤️🧡🤍

can i restart the holidays? not the stress (I need a holiday from the holiday, iykyk) but the part where I don’t have to work/write and rot in bed with Reese’s peanut butter trees and watch an ungodly amount of trash tv

Hey, psssst, want to stay in the know about the incredible debuts coming your way in 2025??? We've got a starter pack for that! go.bsky.app/H13XQTN

An update: I wrote half a page. And now it’s time for a Smallville rewatch 😎

should i write or should i write*

*watch tv

Muddle isn’t even the right word for this but alas what do you people expect from me, I AM JUST A BABY

I’m finally off deadline through the holidays, which is actually MORE terrifying because…now I must continue to muddle my way through an outline that has been baring its teeth at me like a raccoon peeking out of a dumpster at 3am ever since I reached the midpoint

I think aspiring trad authors should be more aware that rejection doesn’t stop when you get your first book deal—and that for 99% of us, you’ll have to face even MORE.
