So excited to read this one and this copy is beyond beautiful! 😍

My shelves are bending!

While I’m taking all the books off to deep clean the bookcase, I’m replacing the shelves upside down so they essentially bend upwards…in the hope they will bend the other way and straighten…that’s physics right?

Anyone else had this issue with their shelves?

In the process of removing books from my shelf and replacing them, I have somehow managed to lose one book and not been able to fit them all back on the same bookcase!

How does this even happen?!

I’m doing a deep clean of my bookshelves while I’m off this week and oh my god, taking all the books off my shelves is a workout in and of itself!

And then finding space for them while I deep clean the shelves is a Herculean task 😂🙈

Worked a 10 hour and just getting to enjoy the sunshine now!

Almost finished The First Sister by Linden A. Lewis!

When I say to a friend I’ll check my personal library for a book they want to read and their response is “that could take a few years”…

They’re not wrong 😂

Okay so I finished The Poppy War series a while ago but I needed time to sit with it before articulating my thoughts.

Okay, I love Ava Reid books, but Fable for the End of the World was mesmerising. The prose was so beautiful and lyrical I was just constantly finding myself in awe.

It was just absolutely brilliant. Blending such a Hunger Games style violence with such genuinely beautiful prose…👏🏻👏🏻

The Burning God by @rfkuang.bsky.social was one of the best books I have ever read.

But I don’t think I can ever forgive what happened to Venka and Kitay. I’ll need therapy and I’ll still never recover.

Publishing and poetry people, I need assistance.

I have found a wealth of poems by dad wrote over the years before he died, and I wanted to get them published in his memory.

Any advice on how to go about this? Self publishing? Trad? Any help is appreciated!

I came across a snippet I wrote in my notes app for my book and…it’s actually pretty amazing? Like, that one paragraph absolutely hits!

I can’t remember when I wrote it or what I was thinking, but thanks past me!

I said I was going to read something lighthearted and optimistic…and instead I chose this 😂

But I have read it before and know I loved it! So I got halfway there 🙈

Just finished Death of a Bookseller! It was a great book, it had amazing slow building tension and a poetic ending.

It also left me in such a weird mood. Like the darkness of the book has seeped into my everyday life, which honestly is a testament to the great writing of @aliceslater.bsky.social

Have you ever read a book where the main characters are absolutely horrid people, and it actually alters your mood?

I’m liking the book, it’s a great book, but I feel that since I started reading it my mood has taken a nosedive 😂🙈
March 4, 2025 at 3:58 PM
I am so late to this one, but I’m currently reading Death of a Bookseller by @aliceslater.bsky.social (and wearing my Bleep beanie hat ofc)

Loving the vibes of this one!

I finally got around to reading The Miseducation of Cameron Post, a book I have been meaning to read for years now. And I’m not quite sure how to adequately review this one.

I enjoyed reading it, if “enjoyed” can really be the right word for a book with this kind of content.

I’ve been a bit absent the past week. Haven’t had a day off work so far and been extremely exhausted!

However, I did finish Four Ruined Realms by Mai Corland (thanks @zaffrebooks.bsky.social) and loved it! Very Six of Crows/Among Thieves.

I’m now reading The Miseducation of Cameron Post (finally)!
February 28, 2025 at 7:47 PM
Finished Five Broken Blades and I loved it!

Reminds me of Six of Crows in some ways, but completely it’s own thing.

Reading Four Ruined Realms now!

Thanks @zaffrebooks.bsky.social for the copies 😍
Came home to some very exciting book mail today!

Thank you so much @zaffrebooks.bsky.social for the copies of Five Broken Blades and Four Ruined Realms! And the extra goodies! (I was running out of tabs!)

Okay, it’s that time again. Recommend your favourite books for me to read in 2025!

Any genre. What’s a book you have absolutely adored and think more people should read?

👇🏻👇🏻

I have just this second finished reading The Lotus Empire by @tashasuri.bsky.social and…I don’t even know what to say (i think the tabs speak for themselves!)

I adore this series. This series has broken me in more ways than I can count, but it was all worth it for that ending (1/2)

You don’t want to see how many tabs I have for this book now I’ve almost finished it…

It’s a ridiculous amount.
