A tiny dragon reading a book. What more could you want?
Grab a book and sit on it, because DRAGON ALONG IS OUT TODAY! 🐲📚🎉
Grab a million copies today like you know you wanna, and let's party once again!
This is the sixth(!) time I get to celebrate this, and it definitely never gets old. I hope you all enjoy Dragon Along. #booksky

Reviewed by Ariana Weldon ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Months after Thorns of War came out I was finally able to sit down and read it. It picks up exactly where we left off, so that was a problem because I had left it…

Saw a local shop called "The Blind Guy" and immediately thought damn, that's either quite offensive or quite progressive. And then I realised they sell blinds and shutters.

It's Valentine's Day, so... hear me out: is there any romance or fantasy-romance book you think I would like? I'm accepting recommendations!
For reference, I really liked the tragic romantic plotline in Ed McDonald's Blackwing.

The country was born in was ruled by fascists until 1974. My parents were already 16 years old when a constitutional democracy was installed for the first time ever.
Needless to say, then, I *know* what fascism looks like, and I know it when I see it. My tolerance for it is 0.

Dude, this new obsession in recent books with taking "show, don't tell" almost literally is making some of them unreadable. Not *every* little detail needs to be shown. It just makes for excessively convoluted stories and really, really hurts pacing. Just move the story along!
