I really enjoyed Outlaw Planet by M.R. Carey. It was not what I expected. At first, it seemed to have disparate storylines, but they came together. Dog Bitch Bess was a complex character I liked. This book is one of the best I’ve read in a while. 💙📚🪐 #books #SFF
Cover for Outlaw Planet by M.R. Carey. The top says “Vengeance Always Comes With A Price” and below the author’s name it says “The million-copy bestselling author. The cover has a picture of a silhouetted fig standing in desert looking landscape between two mountains with a sun rising and a big planet in the sky

Happy #pubday to Joseph Bathanti! "Steady Daylight," out today, is an elegy and praise song to the now-vanished Pittsburgh neighborhood where the author grew up.

💙📚 Beautiful. Terrifying. Heartbreaking. Fascinating. Historical details from the mind of a master researcher, but related with a touch so gentle it sometimes stings. I have faced waves I thought mind end me and know that fear. Bacon brings the story alive.
The Gales of November: The Untold Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, by John U. Bacon Book cover has a dark background with a gold-lettered title, and white-lettered subtitle and author name. A detail from the 1995 painting by David W Conklin titled “Every Man Knew (The Freighter Edmund Fitzgerald)” shows the end of a red and white shipping freighter fighting raging waves under a dark, threatening sky.

Some thrillers turn up the heat.
Cold Zero by Brad Thor and Ward Larsen turns it way, way down ❄️
A sabotaged flight, rival superpowers, and a race across the Arctic ice that feels uncomfortably plausible. Out today. Great read! #BookSky 💙📚
Book cover for "Cold Zero" by Brad Thor and Ward Larsen. The top of the cover features Brad Thor’s name in large, prominent lettering, followed by Ward Larsen’s name. The title "COLD ZERO" is centered in a bold, rugged font that suggests high-stakes action. The background features a stark, cinematic depiction of the Arctic: a vast expanse of jagged, white and blue ice under a cold, overcast sky. A small, distant silhouette of a crashed airliner is visible on the ice, with a lone figure or a small group of figures moving through the frozen wasteland toward the foreground, conveying a sense of isolation and survival.

@louiseblackwick.com I loved this scene in #VivianAmberville where the twins flip reality around them!😅 Reminded me a lot of #Terraria 's Gravitation Potion, where all animals remain upright, but the humans start rapidly falling towards the sky.💙📚

Pub day for Antihero by Gregg Hurwitz (Gregg Hurwitz)! It might be the most human thriller I’ve read in a while. Evan Smoak is forced to pursue justice w/o a body count, & the tension it creates is relentless. Fast, smart, & surprisingly reflective. It's a great read. #BookSky 💙📚
Book cover for "Antihero" by Gregg Hurwitz. The top half features the author's name in large, lime-green capital letters against a twilight sky of deep blues and vibrant pinks. Below, the title "ANTIHERO" is written in bold white letters, followed by the subtitle "An Orphan X Novel." The bottom third of the image shows a silhouette of a man standing at the top of a stone staircase, looking out toward a city skyline under a sunset. The perspective is from the bottom of the stairs, looking upward between two dark, urban walls with green metal railings.

📚 Finished Last Night: The Road
🚸🚸🚸🚸🚸… so many thoughts & emotions after reading. My ultimate takeaway—> the will to live is strong. ⚠️ Many triggers, horrifying. Yet the love b/t a boy & his dad is strong, ultimately giving hope that there’s a better tomorrow, even while preparing for the worst.
Book Cover: The Road, written by Cormac McCarthy. This one will linger with me. Very profound read, horrifying images and yet beautiful in the love of a father for his son and a mother for her son (each making a different life decision) in the most terrible, bleak circumstances. Back Book Cover: The Road, written by Cormac McCarthy. “THE SEARING, POSTAPOCALYPTIC NOVEL DESTINED TO BECOME CORMAC McCARTHY'S MASTERPIECE. A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food-and each other. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, ‘each the other's world entire,’ are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, The Road is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation.”

#booksky 🌈📚 #queerbooksky
The comic book The Flying Ship Volume 1 by Jem Milton with a red, apple-shaped tea mug next to it and surrounded by flowers and little felt pumpkins.

Book description: After being stranded in a forgotten military outpost, grumpy Dobrinia sets out on a quest to marry a princess. But in the vast Tzardom of Glas, where magic has been outlawed, troubled histories can catch up with even a flying ship. The Flying Ship by Jem Milton makes its first foray into print comics! Their fan-favorite story, originally released digitally, is part of the new collaboration between Dark Horse and Tapas.
