Book cover of Scorpion Deep written by CG Drews showing a portait of a boy with a concerning amount of red corals growing from his face.

Cover reveal! Happy to say CG Drews keeps writing lush queer horror YAs and I keep getting to illustrate them ✨

😂

Yup. Something told me to say something, but I didn’t listen to my inner voice.

Thank you.🩷

I thought it was odd when they didn’t start an IV, but I was so happy not to have one that I didn’t question it. Learned my lesson there.

They really are. I’m most likely going to have to repeat my brain and full spine that I had done 2 months ago because my NP meant to order contrast and forgot to.😭

Some of my reads to start off November. Thank you to @netgalley.bsky.social @ayanagray.bsky.social @julieleong.bsky.social & Kylie Lee Baker for the eARCs. #booksky #arcreader #novemberreads

Yes, it is. Now if only they could make MRIs as quick…

It definitely was.

I had one back in June and I swear I was only in it for 2 seconds lol. Now if only they could do something about that awful contrast.

Don't make Sailor Mars do Fire Heel Drop on your ass

Isn’t it. I was lucky enough to be sent a physical arc and I love it so much. It’s a terrific book too and perfect for fall/Halloween reading.

Hugs to you both.🩷

Some more of my October reads. October has been an amazing month of reading for me. I’ve read some absolutely amazing books.

Ty to @jcageauthor.bsky.social @edenroyce.bsky.social Charlene Antrobus & Cait Jacobs for the arcs. I’ve loved them all. #booksky #fallreads #arcreader

The illustrated cover for Enchanting the Fae Queen, by Stephanie Burgis, shows a mischievously grinning woman with long blonde curls, a moonstone crown, a pink dress and bare feet, sitting perched in a tree teasing the uniformed general who stands before her, his expression determined and one of his hands around her closest leg while she pokes his strong nose with one finger. Vines of leaves sweep magically out from the tree around her to draw him towards her. The tagline reads: All’s fae in love and war. The text beside and below it reads: “I take it you abducted my travel trunk at the same time you abducted me?” he asked wryly. “It was the only polite option,” she assured him. “You see, none of the men’s clothing left with me across the years would have been nearly large enough to fit. You wouldn’t have cared for it at all.” His expression was skeptical. “And you were, of course, terribly concerned about my preferences when you chose to abduct me.” “Of course!” Lorelei said piously. “I might be wicked, darling, but it’s never necessary to be cruel.”

This week's Friday snippet comes from Enchanting the Fae Queen, which you can preorder now: stephanieburgis.com/books/enchanting-the-fae-queen

Lime. I grew up in South Florida so I love a good key lime pie.

Some of my October reads so far. These 3 books were all amazing. While wildly different from each other they were all incredibly written.

Cursed Daughters gutted me. Slashed Beauties was beautifully done feminine rage & The Graceview Patient captured the pain & trauma of chronic illness. #booksky

THE KEEPER OF MAGICAL THINGS IS OUT NOW!* *in the US. The UK has to wait until Thursday, sorry! (special shoutout to my dog Kaya for helping announce. she is very concerned about all this catdragon talk and needed reassurance.)

PSYCHOPOMP & CIRCUMSTANCE is out today!

This is a Southern Gothic fantasy with family secrets, Gullah funeral traditions, a beautifully strange house, and a generous sprinkling of magic.

In hardcover, eBook, & audiobook

Available wherever books are sold.

I think you’re right because I did tell my husband that I’m not going to get another cat anytime soon, but if the cat distribution system finds us so be it.😂🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t think Willow will be my last, but who knows. My own health isn’t great and finances are a concern too. This is the first time since I was 5 that I haven’t had a cat and I hate it, but it is what it is I guess.

That I do. It’s sadly one of the reasons that I haven’t gotten a new kitty yet. I desperately miss Willow and I’d love a new baby to love on, but I just can’t imagine having to deal with all that all over again if I got another chronically ill cat.

Hugs to you both.🩷
