Please choose a book or two (or ten!) and give the authors reviews (or even just star ratings). They help tremendously!! If you can't, a share would help them out too! 🩵🩷🤍

Here are the authors' instagram usernames (please follow them!): Petals & Blades anthology by Xaneria Ann @xaneriaann, Colby Beattley, A.P. Sessler, Katie Leonard, Russell Hemmell, Vivian St. Crow, and Kiley Bishop (sorry about not being able to locate some accounts) Grim Reflection by A. Lawrence @akiwitch Dawn of the Obsidian Sun by RN Barbosa @barbosbooks_ Same alt text as slide one, but now three books are displayed. Here are the authors' instagram usernames (please follow them!): The Silence of Storms by Nico Silver @nicosilverbooks Queer Windows: Volume 2 Summer by Cay Fletcher @cayfletcher The Captain and the Guppy by Noah Bodie @highlycaffeinated.art Here's a bingo card for nonbinary November you can use. The squares say: indie/small press author; recommended by a nonbinary friend/creator; disability rep; your favourite genre; young adult (YA); nonbinary joy; Indigenous author / MC; book in the colours of the nonbinary flag; black or latine author / MC; a genre you don't normally read; fantasy; nonfiction / poetry; horror; graphic novel; 2025 release; a book from a country other than your own. I'm not sure who created this because I've seen a few people posting it. If you created it or know who it was, please leave a comment and I'll update this post to credit them.

ADHD Moments:

A while ago, I downloaded an app specifically to remind me of things!

Then I promptly forgot I ever did that until after scrolling through my phone yesterday...🤦🏻

Just as a reminder, there are so many other books to read that don’t fund the hatred of innocent trans people.
Grow up and move on.

My feeble attempt to put a little gay love in the world. Fantasy sci-fi romance action series. MM. LGBTQIA+. Thrilling, complex & relatable queer MCs. A page turner loaded with action & superpowers. The coven amp up their paranormal gifts to protect Planet Ena from terran threats. Have a read🫶🏽
Book cover of the legendary fantasy sci-fi action romance Guardians Of Planet Ena. Gracing the book cover are the two handsome gay black MCs. A forest is behind them. They wear RayBan sunglasses, jackets and hats as the sun illuminates their faces. Link in bio to all five novels. Book III, Guardians Of Planet Ena. Your hero’s continue their lives on Planet Ena after having prevented a moon-sized asteroid from destroying Earth and its inhabitants. Luka and Makaio stand before Jahi and Bakari having kept their promises. They've delivered their children from Earth and into their awaiting arms. In this story they become acquainted with Bahadur’s immortal child who was abandoned for thousands of years awaiting his father and uncle’s return. We become familiar with the Greater Elder’s ever more so in this intimate story of family and bonds. With profound detail we delve deeper into the lands of the people of Ena including their cultures, art, architecture and lifestyles. The histories of the Enaphim's early developments and scientific endeavors are ascertained. Peaceful human hybrid settlements integrated with pure blooded Enaphim are displayed and spoken of. A greater understanding of who the heroes are and where they come from are revealed. Healing and acceptance from past mistakes with new outlooks for the future is the path to transcendence and inner peace for those who had turned their back on the teachings of The Enaphim. Unspeakable danger arrives on Ena in the form of a portal opened from not one of their own wrecking havoc and mayhem upon the innocent peaceful lives of the immortals. Luka steps in to confront this mysterious evil alone, not allowing his friends to assist in order to protect them. They discover a new race of extraterrestrials on Earth in the process of warring with the new foes. Will they recover or is all lost when they battle the seemingly impossible to protect both the Milky Way galaxy that shelters Earth and the Andromeda galaxy in which Planet Ena resides from an unstoppable force that threatens to destroy all life in both star systems? The ever evolving esoteric world they live in and their strength is tested in ways that it never has, resulting in them losing a precious loved one in the process.

Anyone have recommendations for other books to get into the spooky month? Doesn't have to be the classic setup either, I love monsters and ghosts as protagonists!
