Moth and Danny Take a Walk on the new Patreon of @authorlilymayne.bsky.social and Moth has some physical wellness concerns 🗡️👀

This is a flow chart, where every scenario ends with Moth probably getting stabbed (sorry buddy).

A meme of an Always Sunny in Philadelphia character saying, "I have contained my rage for as long as possible." It is captioned, "Einar, the moment anyone other than Matthew opens their mouth to talk."

I don't have enough wonderful things to say about this book. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and then I stared at the wall for a few hours. One of my top reads this year ❤️

Just look at those cuties 🥹

I got so much joy out of reading this continuation of the series. A unique start to a fated mates connection 💚 and the spiciest of spicy phone calls 🔥 🤌🏼

(and ok maybe a splash of violence 🩸)

Did you even know you needed @melaitchess.bsky.social 's new kinky air witch x shifter romance in your life?

What if I told you His Mate by Allegiance comes with a side of violent arts & crafts, and arranged marriage? Hmmm? 👀

Cover of the book, His Mate by Allegiance, by Mel Aitchess. The cover shows an attractive man with dark hair, wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket. The jacket is open and his chest is bare.

There was ZERO need for this paragraph about the power of slow consistent habit formation to be this sexy. I now ship the tectonic plates.
It is the human equivalent of geological pressure. Two tectonic plates can grind against one another for millions of years, the tension slowly building all the while. Then, one day, they rub each other once again, in the same fashion they have for ages, but this time the tension is too great. An earthquake erupts. Change can take years--before it happens at once.

Hurt that makes you flinch just makes retribution that much sweeter.

Glitter by @khalleur.bsky.social hits just right 😘🤌🏼

Me, analyzing books with a wildly quirky author character and trying to figure out whether the writer is taking inspiration from themselves, their writer buddies, or is just extremely imaginative

#MMRomance #Romancelandia #Booksky
Charlie Day from Always Sunny in Philadelphia stands in front of a wall that is covered in paper, spray paint, and red strings to show connections between papers. He has a wild look in his eyes and it looks like an elaborate murder board.

Me, starting any audiobook: Wow, this is incredible! It's so well narrated and I can do other things at the same time. I'm going to read all my books like this, from now on.

Narrator: And she never listened to it ever again.

I tested Rorik & Saffron's popcorn method from Alpha Dragon's Bear by #HawkeOakley and I was 100% shocked it worked. 0% shocked it ended up everywhere, but tested it anyway. For science.

Looking forward to the scene where they spend 5min scooping loose popcorn out of the microwave

Me, trying to tell an author just how much I love their books (and pulling it off with just as much cringe 🙃)

A still from the movie "Love Actually," where a character is holding a handmade sign that reads, "To me, you are perfect."

How to Survive This Fairytale puts the grim in Grimms' fairytales, and it is the best, most horrific thing. Don't spoil it. The beauty is in the details revealing themselves.

It's like being coached through a horror RPG by the world's meanest narrator. I love it.

#MMRomance @smhallow.bsky.social
The book cover shows a swan on a lake in the foreground, with a castle barely peeking over a hill in the background. The name of the author, S.M. Hallow, is at the top. The name of the book, "How to Survive This Fairytale," is written in dripping red text, which looks like blood.

A Jane Austen cartoon for @theguardian.com
Title: Microdosing Jane Austen at the Office Panel 1: A woman sits at a desk which has a computer and a coffee on it. She says "I read a line or two of her writing every hour to keep a mild Regency buzz throughout the day." Panel 2: In a conference room with colleagues, she says "Meetings take on the thrill and romance of a glamorous ball." Panel 3: Typing at her computer she says "My emails are elegant, formal and heaving with restrained passions." Panel 4: "I glance demurely at eligible suitors as I daintily nibble a pret sandwich." she says as she looks across at three men at a different table. Panel 5: She leaves the office and says "It's not all been positive: on Tuesday I read a whole page, and before I knew it, I'd declined three proposals, danced several quadrilles and scandalously revealed an ankle!"

Dear algorithm, can you show my book to readers who enjoy dark urban fantasy stories with demons, gore, action, and MM monster romance (with smut!), pretty please?

Be sure to check the trigger warning, it's a wild ride.

Shifter romance has ruined me, because this is, in fact, the packaging from an electric razor and not dildo-related.

A picture of a piece of cardboard that is shaped to hold a cylinder. There are two round protrusions around the middle of the cylinder. It looks like a dildo with a werewolf knot.
