I just cracked open @rosieethor.bsky.social's "Firefly: Aim to Misbehave." WOW! The author has done an incredible job of capturing the voices of these beloved characters. If you're a fan of the #Firefly series, make sure to pick this one up. You won't regret it. #booksky #scifi #fantasy #serenity

Dan Brown is back! You can preorder the new Robert Langdon novel "The Secret of Secrets." And if you head over to @barnesandnoble.com, you'll get 40% off the hardcover. Or preorder a signed copy. And, before you ask, of course I preordered the signed book! 😜 #booksky #danbrown #robertlangdonreturns

What does it say about me that I'm more excited for the release of @travisbaldree.bsky.social's "Brigands & Breadknives" than my own birthday? 🤣

While I'm still holding out hope for a new Mickey 7 novel soon-ish, I was stoked to see that @edashtonwriting.bsky.social is releasing a new standalone novel next month titled "The Fourth Consort." If it's as good as "Mal Goes to War" then we're all in for a treat. Can't wait! #booksky #scifi

I thought I'd share my partial collection of @kevinhearne.bsky.social's Iron Druid Chronicles. I found the first few books in a secondhand store years ago and immediately fell in love. While I'm sad the series is over, I was stoked to hear that we're getting "Oberon's Bathtime Stories" in April! 🐾

Reading the "Janitors of the Post-Apocalypse" trilogy. Now on the second book. Who knew that all I needed in my life was a group of heroes with nothing more than industrial grade Windex and their wits to put a smile on my face. Thank you @jimchines.bsky.social! You are a scholar and a gentleman.

In this New Year, treat yourself to @jaleighjohnson.bsky.social's "The Fallbacks: Bound for Ruin" for 50% off at @barnesandnoble.com. It's a fantastic @dndbeyond.com adventure with a misfit crew. And the best part? The sequel comes out in July! And, if for no other reason, do it for Uggie...

Cannot wait for the third book in @travisbaldree.bsky.social's world of "Legends & Lattes." And that it'll focus on the foul-mouthed, bibliophile ratkin named Fern? Awesome! Will she get her bookstore in Thune next to Viv's coffee shop? What's with the breadknives? So many questions!
