THIS 👏RIGHT 👏 HERE👏
i am not usually shrill about media consumption as a moral metric. i read historical romances, a genre riddled with colonial fantasies and gender essentialism! but the thing is that none of those authors are billionaires converting my money directly into anti-trans violence

There is no possible way to call yourself a trans ally in 2025 and continue to support that shit. There are SO MANY better fantasy series that aren’t written by bigots!

82 of 2025 No spoilers, but this contains the most beautifully ornate descriptions of the distinct tastes and sensations experienced… while ingesting a human. Not for the faint of heart at all and have your dictionary at the ready. Still, an enjoyable ride! #bluesky

I love my husband. He does amazing things all the time for our family (like driving us 4 hours through a massive winter storm). I’d be lost without him.
But the way that people are always so Shocked to learn we still split the night shift with our sleep-avoidant kids is such infuriating sexism. 1/

81 of 2025: cozy and fun with delightful character development. I loved the action in this one and the quest vibes along with it, yet the heart and soul of the other two books were far from absent. And the audiobook was excellent as always, since narrating them is the author’s day job! #booksky

80 of 2025 I cannot objectively review these books; they mean far too much to me. But suffice to say I am so very happy that I get to live in the age when these books are first released and get to hear things like the magnificent Michael Sheen interviewing Philip Pullman. What. A. Treat. #booksky

Oh my god This. All I could say in the moment was “GENDER! GENDER!GENDER!” but this is what I meant 🤣🤣
Also!! And this is so important to me!!
It’s a hornily, complexly bisexual book that digs in deep on gender—what we make of it, what it makes of us—and desiring that falls outside the bounds of hegemonic cisheteronormativity, due *specifically* to gender nonconformity and gender transgression.

It’s always so joyous for me to see the authors I know are absolutely fantastic getting recognized for being absolutely fantastic. Like they’re great either way? But I would so much rather see AEH featured on the shelf at Target with her pretty sprayed edges than half the slop that’s there.
Good morning to everyone on this joyous morning in America but also to @alixeharrow.bsky.social who's latest book THE EVERLASTING is #14 on the USA Today Bestsellers list.

Sometimes a book catches you at the perfect moment in time. If you’re lucky, you see it happening and savor the pages as they pass. Sometimes you pause and laugh out loud or wonder at the thread you see being so finely woven.
It was a joy, as always, @alixeharrow.bsky.social .

Toddler beds are wild, man. Because they’re inhabited by toddlers. You know, the notoriously impulsive maniacs who will be dead asleep one second and banging on the door the next.

I meant to say 75 of 2025 but it was also 75 of 75 - I met my goal for the year with just under 2 months left!! Yahoo!! I’m still going to be reading at the same clip but I’m so stoked to have met my goal with so much of the year left.
75 of 75 @sgj.bsky.social is such master of his craft in so many ways and this story does such a good job of showcasing his talents. Gory, hilarious, heart wrenching, profound… I’ve got a lot of adjectives for it and all of them good. Can’t wait to read more of his books ☺️
