Oh my god This. All I could say in the moment was “GENDER! GENDER!GENDER!” but this is what I meant 🤣🤣
Also!! And this is so important to me!!

It’s a hornily, complexly bisexual book that digs in deep on gender—what we make of it, what it makes of us—and desiring that falls outside the bounds of hegemonic cisheteronormativity, due *specifically* to gender nonconformity and gender transgression.

It’s always so joyous for me to see the authors I know are absolutely fantastic getting recognized for being absolutely fantastic. Like they’re great either way? But I would so much rather see AEH featured on the shelf at Target with her pretty sprayed edges than half the slop that’s there.

Sometimes a book catches you at the perfect moment in time. If you’re lucky, you see it happening and savor the pages as they pass. Sometimes you pause and laugh out loud or wonder at the thread you see being so finely woven.

It was a joy, as always, @alixeharrow.bsky.social .

@alixeharrow.bsky.social … oh my god, Alix?! You mad, magnificent genius, hot DAMN.

The pure joy of reading a book by my favorite author for the first time is so TANGIBLE right now. Here. For. It.

I am desperate (desperate!) to read @alixeharrow.bsky.social ‘s new masterpiece and homage to the lady knight, but first I have to finish this weird and wonderful and so freaking trippy tale, also featuring a knighted lady.

I had to double take and check which of y’all posted this - I love it when author worlds collide!
@premeemohamed.com & I simply love a @banffcentre.bsky.social reunion & it is extra good when it ends with plotting the wildly unlikely location of the next one

Toddler beds are wild, man. Because they’re inhabited by toddlers. You know, the notoriously impulsive maniacs who will be dead asleep one second and banging on the door the next.

… I may one day recover from the shock of trying to share a room with one 🤣😅

I meant to say 75 of 2025 but it was also 75 of 75 - I met my goal for the year with just under 2 months left!! Yahoo!! I’m still going to be reading at the same clip but I’m so stoked to have met my goal with so much of the year left.
75 of 75 @sgj.bsky.social is such master of his craft in so many ways and this story does such a good job of showcasing his talents. Gory, hilarious, heart wrenching, profound… I’ve got a lot of adjectives for it and all of them good. Can’t wait to read more of his books ☺️

www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn... One state’s troops have entered another state without permission from the state’s Governor. This is intent to exercise control over one of the state’s territories. This is an armed invasion. This is authoritarianism.

Oh yeah he’s definitely yours. 😂😘
Child-rearing is great for hearing very eloquent, yet stark answers to universal human experiences. I.e. Do you want the light off? “No. Then I’ll see scary eyes and bodies. And scary mouths!”

Last year I demanded @avec2accents.bsky.social teach me how to speak French on the drive between Ottawa and Montreal and he was like "Let's start with how to say 'I am a writer,'" and I was like great, and he said "You say JE SUIS PAUVRE" 😭😭😭
"Oh, do you speak French?"

NON

But I used to

Unfortunately after I left school I stopped using it and now I am more like Miss Piggy ("Don't tell anyone, but the only French she knows is from perfume labels")

This is the first time in months that I’ve posted my wrap up graphics on time.. proud of me! It was a strange month and I didn’t love everything that I read, but there were a few standout excellent ones. And importantly, I pushed through eye reading burnout Twice and am now started on a great one!
