I've decided while I'll keep reading trade publishing with the library audiobook loans, I'm switching back to indie published paperbacks. ☺️

I'm finally planning to start a podcast on monster stuff (prob. called "Dr. Monster" because why not have fun).

I'm still sort of working out what that would look like/what people might be interested in terms of topics.

If you have any thoughts or requests, I'd love to hear them!

Some topics ⬇️

This is one of my favorite indie series! I was so excited when Lyra Wolf reached out for an arc review. 😊 The Fire in the Frost is another wonderful addition to the series!

The Fire in the Frost by Lyra Wolf Book Review
The Fire in the Frost is another wonderful addition to The Nine Worlds Rising. Fans of Norse mythology retellings need to dive into this world and read about Lyra Wolf’s Loki.

I have received the beautiful paperback edition of @akairondragon.ca's epic science fantasy debut, The First Sin yesterday!! 🤩💜 With cute stickers and awesome art cards and bookmark!

I cannot wait to read it again! #BookSky #fantasy #scifi
I'm holding the paperback book of The First Sin by Cheyenne Brammah. The cover is a painting-like depiction of a dragon-person with golden and green colors on his body and winds standing in a red desert with his back to the viewer. There's a huge spaceship in the background. And also a moon. A photo of the book on a table, surrounded by art cards, stickers, and a bookmark.

Since today is the crowdfund launch, but I've got hours to kill yet...

1 like = 1 lore drop from The Chosen One Con 😎
The book cover to The Chosen One Con book, book one the Lost in the Aether duology by Trudie Skies. The cover shows a young white man in a long trench coat putting a glowing blue potion in his inner pocket as though stealing it. In the background are factories with chimneys blowing out dark smoke.

Well, I never expected any dark seafaring fantasy tale to ever reach the same heights of Robin Hobb’s Liveship Traders and R.J. Barker’s Tide Child for me, but I think N.C. Scrimgeour just did so with Tides of Torment.
REVIEW: Tides of Torment by N. C. Scrimgeour
This epic conclusion to the Scottish folklore-inspired Sea of Souls Saga truly blew all my expectations out of the water, and I honestly think it’s a more perfect and satisfying finale than you could ...

The writing is beautifully wistful and magical, while the story itself is heartwrenching and charming in an ideal balance.
REVIEW: Fate's Bane by C.L. Clark
Fate’s Bane is a tragedy set in a leafy fantasy setting that adeptly develops its own history and mythos as it goes along, leaving the reader with a knot in the stomach and tear in the eye.

An overlooked gem in the grimdark genre.
REVIEW: Elisha Barber by E.C. Ambrose
Elisha Barber is among the goriest stories ever written about a protagonist who is, at least for the most part, a pacifist.

The conclusion to Jeremy Szal’s space opera The Common has a release date, and after the un-put-downable Stormblood and the expansive Blindspace it’s time to wrap up this story with Wolfskin. Head to the blog to check out an exclusive excerpt.

Relatedly, trans and gender nonconforming friends, please add your books to Pagebound! I'm trying to compile a list of works by trans + nonbinary authors and there are lots of friends whose works are missing.

They're easy enough to add (just search them, click "missing book," then paste the GR URL)
