Booking my annual checkup immediately following a July of haggis, tatties, and whiskey may have been an error on my part.

My 77yo mom was pulled aside by TSA for having a giant carrot in her purse. This is possibly the most on brand event related to her ever.

I was hacked this morning, trying to get my account back to normal! Apologies for any interactions I had while I was not myself! 😱

The new Neil Halloran documentary on Smallpox has completely changed how I see the RFK Jr. version of the world. Neil (softly) argues that realizing that disease isn't the fault of the sick /or/ the fault of the Gods ushered in a new future where we felt the authority to care for each other.

Me *sexting*: I read that book you recommended.

Broken Country by Clare Leslie Hall gets all the stars from me, just the most beautiful historical fiction that will make you cry, plus the wildest twists.

I always joke about playing the type of records that any 1800s ghosts in our house might enjoy, but last night Maria Callas started playing when nobody was near the music space, so I probably need to be a little more diligent about keeping them happy. 😳

My first 5⭐️ horror read of the year! Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng is the dark, gruesome, and powerful story of a woman who cleans crime scenes at the beginning of the pandemic.
Thank you to Mira Books for the ARC; this one comes out April 29th.

I am loving this horror novel with Vietnamese mythology and monsters that may swim beneath us or live within us. It’s written beautifully; I’ve been highlighting like a maniac while devouring it.
Thank you to @bloomsburybooks.bsky.social for They Bloom at Night by Trang Thanh Tran!

I’m loving today’s flight read so far: it’s a raw and gritty coming-of-age story of three young girls in nineties Yorkshire, England.
Thank you so much to @henryholtbooks.bsky.social for the ARC of We Pretty Pieces of Flesh by Colwill Brown!

I will officially be hibernating with this on release date. The Murderbot sci fi series is my happy place.

I blinked and the cute hockey player who was asking how I did on the calculus test is now in my kitchen wearing a full-on Grandpa cardigan talking about our electric bill. Where did forty years go?

What if an heiress you didn’t know was murdered, and shockingly left her generational wealth to you? What if you had no alibi for the night she died?
Thank you to @readlandmark.bsky.social for this juicy locked room mystery with so many twists!

This one scared me, and even more unsettling was knowing that the author wrote this sci fi horror set at the South Pole WHILE he was at the South Pole. 😱

Ahh, ARC approval for one of my most anticipated reads just came through! Baldwin: A Love Story by Nicholas Boggs is the story of how his relationships shaped his work. Thank you, @fsgbooks.bsky.social ! ❤️

All Better Now by Neal Shusterman would make for great book club discussion: a virus leaves those that survive it completely happy, no longer wanting to consume or caring how others view them.
Thank you to Simon and Schuster for the ARC!
