The cover of Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree (UK edition) Description: Set in the world of BookTok sensation Legends & Lattes, Travis Baldree's Bookshops & Bonedust is a cosy fantasy about the power of good bookshops, great friends and the unexpected choices along the way. First loves. Second-hand books. Epic adventures. Viv’s career with the renowned mercenary company Rackam’s Ravens isn’t going as planned. Wounded during the hunt for a powerful necromancer, she’s packed off against her will to recuperate in the sleepy beach town of Murk – so far from the action that she worries she’ll never be able to return to it. What’s a thwarted soldier of fortune to do?Spending her hours at a struggling bookshop in the company of its foul-mouthed proprietor is the last thing Viv would have predicted. Even though it may be exactly what she needs. Still, adventure isn’t far away. A suspicious traveller in grey, a gnome with a chip on her shoulder, a summer fling and an improbable number of skeletons prove Murk to be more eventful than Viv could have ever expected. Sometimes, right things happen at the wrong time. Sometimes, what we need isn’t what we seek. And sometimes, we find ourselves in the stories we experience together . . . Readers love Bookshops & Bonedust!‘Reading this book feels like being wrapped up in a soft blanket’‘This was really just what I needed’‘It feeds the soul and warms the heart’‘I think I actually might love this more than Legends & Lattes’‘This was all I had hoped for, and more’Perfect for fans of TJ Klune, Katherine Addison and T. Kingfisher. From the Hugo Award-winning author, Travis Baldree. ‘Glorious’ – Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Rivers of London series The cover of The Dos and Donuts of Love by Adiba Jaigirdar - Paperback. An illustration of two asian femme people looking at each other and almost touching hands as thouggh in passing, on a purple background. Book description: A pun-filled YA contemporary romance, The Dos and Donuts of Love by Adiba Jaigirdar finds a teenage girl competing in a televised baking competition, with contestants including her ex-girlfriend and a potential new crush - perfect for fans of The Great British Bake Off and She Drives Me Crazy! "Welcome to the first ever Junior Irish Baking Show!" Shireen Malik is still reeling from the breakup with her ex-girlfriend, Chris, when she receives news that she's been accepted as a contestant on a new televised baking competition show. This is Shireen's dream come true! Because winning will not only mean prize money, but it will also bring some much-needed attention to You Drive Me Glazy, her parents' beloved donut shop. Things get complicated, though, because Chris is also a contestant on the show. Then there's the very outgoing Niamh, a fellow contestant who is becoming fast friends with Shireen. Things are heating up between them, and not just in the kitchen. As the competition intensifies, Shireen will have to ignore all these factors and more - including potential sabotage - if she wants a sweet victory! The cover of Pass Me By: Gone Fishin' by Ryan Danny Owen. Mostly white cover with a dark green ink drawing of a northern american suburban home which has started to disintegrate with debris falling into the white void beneath. Description: A touching and tender graphic novel following Ed, a reserved man dealing with dementia in a small, northern-Canadian town. As Ed's memory declines he loses touch with the present and revisits a past he chose to forget. As he loses more of his present, he finds himself lost more in the 1970s when he toured rural Canada in a glam rock band. A queer, romantic-tragedy. ISBN-13: 9781988903590 Author(s): Ryan Danny Owen Subjects: FX, XA Publisher: Renegade Arts Entertainment The book cover of Cosmic Love at the Multiverse Hair Salon by Annie Mare. An illustration of a circular room with midcentury modern furniture and some houseplants in deep greens and warm oranges, seemingly hovering in outer space. The title is taking up the upper middle in chunky, pastel orange, 70s style block font with a poppy, saturated orange throw shadow that traces into a sturn-like planet in the centre of the background. Description: Tressa Fay Robeson has never been shy, which is how she's made a name for herself as an in-demand hairstylist and social media star. So she can admit that spending her days at her hair salon and her nights with her tight-knit group of friends (and one grumpy cat) is not the kind of exciting life she'd hoped for. When a misdirected text from a stranger leads to a flirty exchange, she surprises herself by suggesting an impulsive meetup. But the woman, Meryl, never shows. Tressa Fay brushes it off - until Meryl's sister and friend show up at the salon demanding to know what's going on. Because, you see, there's no way Meryl could have texted her. Meryl has been missing for a month. Tressa Fay and her tight-knit group of friends soon discover they aren't dealing with a catfish, but a temporal paradox. As they come to terms with the idea of parallel universes, they realise how many times their paths have crossed like this before. But even as they understand the multiverse more and more, nothing keeps Meryl from vanishing. As it draws closer to the moment of Meryl's disappearance, there's only one question left: Have they done enough to change the outcome, or have they done so much that none of them will make it past that fateful day in September?

Vibe coding is working as expected: it'll kill the open-source, secure, and ideologically maintained alternatives to make sure you have to pay the oligarchs to do anything at all, and they can control what you're allowed to make.

As a multiple-time Snag customer. I'm glad they put this out there because if I saw a GenAi ad I'd stop buying from them.

It's bad enough to force Ai ads onto small companies (and the included reputational risk) but also charging them for it! And it makes it harder to tell who is using Ai by choice

Posting this here for reasons 😒

If you happen to see any Finji ads that look distinctly UN-Finji-like, send me a screencap.

If you are someone who writes intelligently about something like "massive company running ai versions of paid ads without small company's consent" idk, maybe reach out.
