Back to my normal book review posting today with The God of the Woods. I really wanted to like this book because so many people reviewed it so highly, but at the end of the day it was just an ok read for me. I honestly probably would have dnfed it if it wasn't a book club read. #booksky

Today I present to you the last TJ Alexander book review: their upcoming release. I was so thrilled to get an arc of this. If you are looking for a sweet, funny, slightly angsty trans regency romance then this book is so for you! #booksky

I’m so tired y’all. The combination of reading a horror book (Blood On Her Tongue) before bed and the creature scratching around in my bedroom wall all night equaled a terrible night’s sleep 😭

More TJ Alexander reviews this week! Today we have Triple Sec, a polyamorous romance. This is TJ Alexander’s fourth book, but the very first book of theirs that I read. I read it for a book club and loved it so much I knew I needed to read everything by TJ Alexander! #booksky

Happy Valentines Day! Today we are wrapping up this post series with my favorite form of love to read about, which I think can be romantic, familial, or platonic as well: pragma, meaning enduring love. To me, pragma is the pinnacle of love. (1/2)

Went to the dentist this morning and in the weird way my brain works I suddenly remembered one of my favorite books growing up (one of the characters is a dentist): Remarkable by Lizzie K Foley. So that’s my random book recommendation of the day #booksky

Onto the cutest form of love today: Ludus, or playful love. These books are predominantly YA romances because Ludus also refers to young love. So these books have young people having a playful relationship with falling in love. (1/2)

Happy Monday! Back to this rec series this week. I present to you Mania, or obsessive love. These books examine love in its most toxic, all consuming, dangerous form. They are also all amazing books that I highly recommend. #booksky

Here are some amazing books with trans characters and/or authors. Reminders: Trans people have always been here and always will be. Trans women belong in sports, and all trans people have a right to gender affirming care and medicine #booksky

Just finished my first #booksky recommendation and it was amazing! Thank you @discobooks.bsky.social for posting about Sistah Samurai by @obeytheauthor.bsky.social and bringing it to my attention. It was phenomenal!

Wanted to read something cute on the train and hit the jackpot with @authordcemerson.bsky.social short stories! I highly recommend both Conflict Mediation and You’re Ours, and I look forward to reading more of their work. Looks like I might have a new favorite author!

Happy February! Starting this month with Serial Killer Support Group, a dark queer thriller by Saratoga Schaefer. It has a very strong concept and opening so far

I’m about halfway through my current read, and I have a long train ride tomorrow. Can I get it finished by the end of the month? #booksky

For February I wanted to highlight books about love. In the past l've done romance tropes, favorite couples, etc. This year I wanted to do it a bit differently to recognize that there are many forms of love. So I've decided to create 6 posts based on types of love as defined by the ancient Greeks.

Took down my Christmas tree today! It’s almost February and therefore Valentines. To celebrate the month I will be posting book recs based on different types of love. I will also be highlighting my new favorite romance author @tjalexandernyc.bsky.social with reviews of all their books. Stay tuned!
