Hi! My name is Sam. I am a stay at home mom, I’m bisexual, disabled, dyslexic and I love to read.

I’m a major mood reader but my favorite genres are horror, romance, litfic, and thrillers.

I read diversity and talk about politics (including how reading is political).

It is crunch time. I am still 145 subscribers away from the subscriber goal I was trying to reach by TODAY. Please help me get this company to a more sustainable position so we can fight for Black and brown authors more effectively. Just $5 will make a difference.

Please keep in mind that many of your disabled friends likely need more accommodations now and in the coming days. AND many of your neighbors will BECOME disabled in the coming days. Don’t wait to educate yourself on how to not be useless.

Share your Storygraph mood pie chart!

Mine as been leaning dark which is normal for me and you can see I’ve been reading 5+ books at once that’s why it’s taking me a whole week to finish anything haha

Reposting this again! Pls pls pls I beg you, use alt text. It helps everyone, not just our low vision/blind friends.

You can change your settings to require it before posting!
And don’t forget about alt-text for GIFs!

Posting this again because a lot of people said they found it helpful! Guide to ALT text: www.perkins.org/resource/how...
ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

Update for Boshra and Mohammad- this is their current sleeping conditions while they are displaced. Both are disabled and have improvised these beds on doors and cement bricks because they cannot sleep on the ground due to their disabilities.

🚨Calling out the white women on BookTok for their performative behavior who claim to be allies but only read books by cis straight authors. Following BIPOC & queer authors isn’t allyship—actively reading books by Bipoc and queer authors and deconstructing your privilege is.

Anyone doubting that the puritanical wave has already stated in online book communities.

Heads up fellow Aro/Ace folks who complain about having sex and romance in media, these people are not our allies.

This is thinly veiled Christofascist CompHet.

Second book of February.

This was such a fun ya horror book and my first Stephen Graham Jones book. He had a very unique writing style and I’m excited to read more.

#booksky #horrorbook
White and pink background: Book Night of the Mannequins 3 1/2 star. Summary: We thought we'd play a fun prank on her, and now most of us are dead. One last laugh for the summer as it winds down. One last prank just to scare a friend. Bringing a mannequin into a theater is just some harmless fun, right? Until it wakes up. Until it starts killing. Luckily, Sawyer has a plan. He'll be a hero. He'll save everyone to the best of his ability. He'll do whatever he needs to so he can save the day. That's the thing about heroes-sometimes you have to become a monster first.
