Someone help Jackson out will ya?
Interested in reading cool books by indie authors. Anyone got recommendations for self-pub stuff that genuinely blew them away? I'm open to pretty much any genre. #BookSky #amreading

This actually sounds mega fun! Going to give it a go :^ )
Writing Tip:
As an exercise, try and hash out a short story in ten/twenty minutes, fast as you can. BUT, flip a coin every two minutes. Heads, the narrative suddenly goes well for the protagonist, tails, something suddenly goes wrong. Try it out!

Currently reading a contemporary romance novel but I’m not sure I will ever become accustomed to written description of the human body in sensual way and I don’t know why.

How does the book sky gang feel about it? Am I just insecure 😔

Books that pass the ‘5 laugh test’?

Aaaand GO!

(A book that made you laugh out loud at least 5 times)

Je me suis aperçu que les choses qui ne sont pas notées se perdent à jamais.
L’écriture garde la trace de ce qui était fragile, passant, et si vital. En cela, elle permet de maintenir le vol même de la vie.

Incredible location. Sadly I am not sure how I felt about the film. I really wanted to like it but nothing really stood out as spectacular
If you thought Frankenstein's Tower in the Guillermo del Toro movie looked cool, check out the real-world inspiration behind it...

Well we might have some pretty huge news coming soon :^ )

Is it cheating, or can you say you read a book when you actually listened to the audiobook?

I was given three choices of book for the next episode. The challenge for @bingewriting.bsky.social - a book where no one dies.
Behind Frenemy Lines by Zen Cho @zenaldehyde.bsky.social

When he told me the title I instantly knew it was this one! Cannot wait to get my teeth into it!

On this, the last day of Samhain, we celebrate the last day of harvest, the slow trudge towards darkness that yet promises light.

What are your most hopeful or agricultural reads to share with everyone?

Ok we need to talk about Heelys as I have an important question.

Yay or Nay on an MC in a fairly serious story wearing them consistently throughout a novel?

I have discovered why this book was sold by its former owner -Stewart’s Melville College library in Edinburgh

‘Good condition’ my arse. But in all fairness it doesn’t bother me, I quite like it tbh. Gives the book character.

If anyone knows what it says on page 121 lines 19-22 of Xenos thenLMK

Another thing an e-reader can never emulate!

I love buying a second hand book and finding the library tag in the front. In an odd way it makes you feel connected to the many readers of this same copy before you.

So thank you Stewart’s Melville College Library!

Been doing some more research on gender and reading. According to the US National Endowment for Arts

‘54.6 percent of women were estimated to have [read a fiction novel], compared with 35.1 percent of men.’

AND THIS WAS IN 2012! I dread to think what it’s like today!

I know what this looks like okay but hear us out!

I wanted to read something @bingewriting.bsky.social hadn’t read!

Turns out, it’s actually pretty good! Join us on the 30th October (day before spooky day) wherever you get your podcasts on the Binge Reading Bookclub.

I may have been living under a rock but I just found out men read far fewer novels than women.

In my group I was the one that didn’t read until recently and I’m glad I picked the habit up again.

Is it just not cool to read or is it other things? The internet can’t seem to give a good answer. 📚💬
