I LOVE art of all forms.
A girl dad fighting for their rights. I want them to know I supported policies that would benefit everyone, not just a select few.

Go watch Good Boy (2025). You don’t want to miss this one.
I am TELLING you, this is one of those movies you should support in theaters.
Creative, original idea, perfectly executed. Spooky! Perfect way to usher in October.
Give this dog Indy the Oscar already.

The End of Loneliness by Benedict Wells.
A story that impacts the heart.
Going in I was expecting an emotional ride and it delivered. It’s important to experience books like this now and then.
I had one issue with this book: how one character’s ending happens.

Katabasis by R.F. Kuang
A dark adventure of a book. I LOVED IT!
If you take Dante’s Inferno and mix some Alice in Wonderland, Jim Henson’s Labyrinth, and a sprinkle of the movie Whiplash… you get this book.
A book worth reading multiple times to find more nuggets.

Finished Wanting by @clairejia.bsky.social
Interesting exploration of desire and drive, but overshadowed by a recurring trope.
Every character is wanting 😏 something and it’s cool to see how that is explored given the different social positions they’re in.

Jade War by @fondalee.bsky.social
Gripping! Completely leveled me a couple of times.
I love the tug of war going on in this book. There are multiple levels of chess pieces moving all over the place, but it never loses you. You feel the triumphs and the losses 💯

Golden Son by Pierce Brown…
In one word: Awesome!
This book FLEW by. I swore I’d just started and I happened to look where I was and I was already 4 hours in. Well written with such a great pace.
Filled with memorable heart-pumping moments.
And that ending… 🔥

Parents who aren’t for gun reform simply DO NOT love their kids.
They choose their guns over their own children.

Finished Never Flinch by @stephenking.bsky.social
It’s aright.
Some things felt forced and relied on coincidences to put characters where they needed to be.
I love Holly Gibney! However, I feel that this one doesn’t reach the same level as her previous appearances.

The Devils by @joeabercrombie.com
A blast!
Stayed up ‘til 4 a.m. finishing this book. It was so good!
Funny, action packed and yet filled with a lot of heart.
I didn’t like where it left some characters. BUT, since it’s part of a trilogy, I’ll see where it goes.

The Shadow of What Was Lost by James Islington.
Unique plot, epic and awesome!
The characters in this were amazing. I was enthralled in their storylines from the get-go.
Will be a 10/10 series 💯, but on its own it does A LOT of foreshadowing to the other books.
