My fiancé surprised me with the build a bear bat bear I’ve been saying I want. He went and got it made on his lunch break today 😭😭😭😭 #goth #booksky #halloween

I’m already on chapter seven and I’m hooked yet again!!!!

Picture is of a digital ARC of Lord of Ruin by K M Enright

Time to read about my favorite morally grey polyam trio. Still confused that @netgalley.bsky.social and @orbitbooks.bsky.social gave me an e-ARC of my most anticipated sequel this year by @kmenright.bsky.social #booksky #lordofruin #netgalley #ARC #eARC

How the fuck did I get approved for an e-arc of Wild Reverence? #booksky

Working in the events industry while seeing multiple bookish convention controversies is such an interesting overlap of my professional knowledge and my hobbies #booksky

The new Superman being only two years older than me is a really specific indicator of me getting older. Never in my life has a Superman been my age.

My commute to work today was so long because of whatever rail issues Metro was having. Got on at 8:12 and didn’t get off till 9:45. Normally like a 30 min trip 😑😑😑 #booksky #metro #washingtondc

I see that V E Schwab will be at the National Book Festival. So I will definitely be at the National Book Festival this year #booksky #nationalbookfestival #veschwab

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!! I’m so excited

While I’ve been offline for my mental health, I GOT A PROMOTION!!!! #booksky

Finally broke through my reading slump & finished A Treachery of Swans by @abporanek.bsky.social. An absolutely mesmerizing take on Swan Lake. I might be biased since it’s one of my favorite ballets & Barbie movies but this was so good. Full of mystery, friendship, & gay longing #bookreview #booksky

It’s finally time to start The Knight and the Moth #booksky #bookreview

I’m not mad at it. I’m chalking it up to taking care of my inner child lol

The angsty, edgy teen in me took over in McKay’s #booksky #bookhaul

I loved series of unfortunate events and the thoroughbred series

I only knew about it because a friend of mine has hosted events there and said it was something I’d love to go to. She was right

The interactive history of word wall

Writing on wall that says “i before e. Except for those eight weird overweight sovereigns who leisurely deceived their conceited heirs”

Finally made a long overdue first trip to Planet Word in DC. If you haven’t been yet and live in DC or are planning a trip here, it’s an incredible little museum. So fun, so interactive, and so so important right now. The banned book interactive exhibit is so well done. #booksky #WashingtonDC #DC

I have freshly dyed hair and I’m eating Taco Bell. It’s a Good Friday night

Why do I have to risk life and limb to get a Labubu? My five year old nephew wants one because they’re cute and I don’t know how to tell him auntie can’t die trying to get a viral sensation item.

E-ARC of A Treachery of Swans by A B Poranek

I’m hoping a @netgalley.bsky.social ARC of one of my most anticipated reads of the year can fix my reading slump. I’m so excited to get to read A Treachery of Swans early @simonteen.bsky.social @abporanek.bsky.social #booksky #bookreview #netgalley #arc #advancedreadercopy

Have you read The Salt Grows Heavy by Cassandra Khaw? It’s a little mermaid inspired horror novella with a plague doctor. It’s incredible

Thank you!!!!

I have three more meetings today and I want to die

One of my most loved items as a kid was an afghan my great grandma crocheted for my family!

Thank you!!!

I’m still learning but I’m loving crochet. It makes my brain be quiet as I work. I don’t think I’d have to patience to knit though lol
