The library is basically a community knowledge hoard.
Act accordingly.
Defend the hoard.

#booksky #literarycryptid

Friendly reminder that the library is free.

Yes. Still. In this economy.

#booksky

Respectfully, everyone should be a little more feral about supporting libraries.

#booksky #library #bookgoblin

Many people don’t realize that your library card also unlocks free ebooks and audiobooks through apps like Libby and Hoopla.
You can borrow books from your couch. In pajamas. With snacks.
As a book goblin, I consider this a public service announcement.

#booksky #library #libby #hoopla

You deserve access to stories.
You deserve a place to learn new things.
You deserve a quiet corner and a good book.
That’s what libraries are for.
Signing up for a library card takes just a few minutes, and it opens the door to thousands of books.

There is a computer error code named after the book Fahrenheit 451. If you've ever encountered "Error 451" while browsing the internet, you were trying to access a page that is "Unavailable For Legal Reasons". The cause is usually a web page censored by the government. The code was given the number 451 as a reference to the book, a classic narrative about censorship and destroying information.

Seems like an appropriate time to be posting this "fun" fact.

While doomscrolling technically involves reading words on a screen, it is generally considered a form of passive, addictive media consumption rather than productive reading. So...I guess it depends on your view, but I would say no...

Warning: Reading is dangerous. Regular reading can lead to independence, curiosity, empathy, and confidence. It could also improve your health, knowledge, memory, critical thinking, concentration, stress levels, open-mindedness, writing and vocabulary. Consult your librarian if you think you may be at risk.

Reading is Dangerous. 😈

Bookworm? No, no, babes. I am an ink drinker. A literary cryptid. I prowl the shelves seeking that which to devour, let out unholy noises at character deaths and mutter grumbled commentary as I read.

#bookgoblin #booksky

I don’t go hunting for bookish friends. I simply exist ferally with my books and trust the vibes + the universe to deliver kindred book goblins to my doorstep.

#booksky

Excellent vibes! I literally finished that yesterday!

This year any book recs given to me will be evaluated for vibes then placed on the TBR.

(We only take good vibes and happy endings here. The world is still too much of a dumpster fire to be reading sad and depressing books)

Book Goblin Blessing For The New Year:
May your TBR become an ever-growing beast you lovingly fail to tame. May your library card burn hot in your pocket, and every book choose you with maliciously perfect timing. May you read greedily and without shame.

#literarycryptid
#booksky

"May your TBR grow and your library card never cool off." Is the absolute perfect blessing for a book goblin and I accept this wholeheartedly

My 2025:
430 books. Libraries advocacy. Book Chaos. Romance, Murderbot, Dungeon Crawler Carl—all devoured.
The hoard grew. The goblin endured.
Ending the year grateful. Starting the next one feral, hunched over a book at 12:01 AM like the creature of legend that I am.

This year I read 430 books, repped my local romance bookstore at my library, and tried to be loud about library advocacy in every season.
Books came with me on trips, fishing adventures, and cozy nights in.
The local public library is still the place for me. Always.

#booksky

Let me just say, the Dungeon Crawler Carl series is worth every crumb of hype it gets.
100/10 No notes.

Spent the day in the library helping students print final papers, find sources, and survive the last push of the semester… and then the world sent me home to a quiet snowfall and a book. I don’t take that kindness lightly.

#booksky #avidreader #snowday

There is something dangerously powerful about watching snow fall while being deep in a good book.

#booksky #snowday

Snow started falling right after I got home from the early school closure and honestly… that felt like the universe personally tucking me into a reading afternoon.

#booksky #snowday

I contain multitudes, including “calm helpful library staff” and “feral romance reader vibrating for freedom.”

Finals are almost over and my TBR has been singing a sirens call...

#booksky

Everyone else is eating leftovers. Meanwhile I’m over here glutting myself on stories, tangled in blankets, surrounded by stacks like a satisfied little book goblin digesting plot twists.

#bookgoblin #booksky #avidreader

Post-Thanksgiving weekend plans? Nest. Books. Snacks. Repeat. I am a creature of indulgence and these final fall days were MADE for curling up and devouring entire fictional worlds.

#booksky #bookgoblin

I’m not skipping family Thanksgiving, I’m just choosing to spend it with the characters who don’t ask me why I’m single.

#thanksgiving #booksky #avidreader #booksaremyhappyplace

“Are you lonely spending Thanksgiving alone?”
Babes, I have fictional characters, multiple love interests, a dragon shifter audiobook, and a cheesecake. I am thriving!

#booksky #bookgoblin #avidreader

Me, stirring a pot with one hand and listening to an audiobook with the intensity of a dragon guarding treasure: this is my Thanksgiving. This is my religion.

#booksky

Being a mood reader means my TBR is not a list, it’s a cryptid. Some books get devoured instantly, others get left in the hoard for moons until the stars align and my goblin heart whispers, “Now.”

#moodreader #booksky #avidreader

Thanksgiving plans? Oh, I’ll be lips-deep in books and snacks like a feral little book goblin who found a feast in the woods. Family’s far away, so I’ll be cooking for one and reading for… an entire hoard.

#booksky #bookgoblin #holidayplans

Everyone else: “Thanksgiving is about family.”
Me: “Correct.” proceeds to cuddle up with my books, snacks, blankets, and fictional boyfriends who have never let me down once.

#thanksgiving #inkdrinker #booksky #avidreader

I love being a mood reader because I’ll binge an entire series over 48 hours, then let a book marinate on my Kindle for half a year before suddenly finishing it like nothing happened. Goblin consistency: ✨nonexistent✨
