Tiktok sending me video tips about an illegally bound #HarryPotter #fanfic wasn't surprising, just disappointing. This is why people say #Alchemized can't be separated from #Manacled. It doesn't matter that SLY wanted a clean break from HP, that fandom will never respect their wishes.

Quick review of Vampires of El Norte by Isabel Cañas.
TLDR: Beautifully written historical #horror with a side of a slow burn second chance #romance. Unique take on vampires and a great #spookyseason read!

My quick review of Defectors by Paola Ramos

TLDR: Nonfiction deep dive of how far-right ideologies have seeped into the Latinx community. I gave it 5 stars, definitely pick this one up! #nonfictionbooks #latinx #latino #nonfictionreads #deepdive #bluesky #booksky

I had Carissa Broadbent on my problematic authors list because of her neutral stance on Gaza. This is a step in the right direction, so I'm taking her off my list for now.

Here is my updated list of Problematic Authors and a blurb about what they did. 😮‍💨

Please don't shoot the messenger. I'm human, I make mistakes, if one of these authors apologized and is making moves to do better, please let me know so I can adjust my list

Uhhhh yeah. I definitely recommend pre-ordering Cry, Voidbringer from @binderybooks.bsky.social

@michaellaborn.bsky.social has phenomenal taste 🙌🏻 follow him if you haven't already 😇

I'm about to DEVOUR this. I've been white knuckling my way through the week until I could get out to a bookstore and grab a copy 😍😍😍

If you haven't read this series by @kennedyryan.bsky.social yet, then you need to. ESPECIALLY if you call yourself a #romance reader!!!!

Really tired of seeing male-presenting book influences recommending only cis-het white male authored books. Get some damn VARIETY. It's 2025 ffs.

Allegedly by Tiffany D Jackson disturbed me so much (it's meant to disturb you btw) I lost literally all will to read new books and had to reach for one of my favs

Help me choose! #booksky

I've never annotated a NF book before, so I wanted to start with a book I know I love (def go read it if you haven't already). But I need some suggestions!

Drop in the comments:
1) What categories would you highlight for this non-fiction book?
2) What colors would you use?
