Happy Time Loops & Meet Cutes Day! If you've read the book, you know that June 20 is the day that Noelle keeps repeating. I hope you have a great first day of summer...but I also hope that you only have to do it once!

Sometimes in life you just need to stop and yell in a basket on the sidewalk. Photo from my collection, no date/info.

The dedication for Witchcraft For Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix. The way I snorted πŸ˜‚ It's not my usual genre, and I've seen mixed reviews, but I'm intrigued #BookSky πŸ’™πŸ“š #horror #historicalfiction πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸ©ΈπŸ“šβ³

Time and Tide by @jmfrey.bsky.social is a time slip, historical fiction that sees a modern bi woman thrown back into 1805 via a plane crash. It's my next library read #BookSky #Bookreview #romance #timeslip #histfic #queer #LGBTQIA+ #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube #library πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸŒΆοΈπŸ“šπŸ–‹οΈπŸ“šβ³πŸ“šβ°

Secrets of Rose Briar Hall by Kelsey James is first up in my library haul.

Arthurian retellings! Norse and Greek and Celtic myth retellings! Shakespeare retellings! Fairy tale retellings! Jewish folklore retellings! Literal *dozens* of retellings by me, all in one place, including a whole novella at the end! πŸ“šπŸ’™ #BookSky

Libby suggested The Bangalore Detectives Club by Harini Nagendra as a read I might be interested in, so we'll check it out. Ha see what I did there? #punny #Library #BookSky #Bookreview #cozy #cozymystery #mystery #historicalfiction #histfic #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube πŸ’™πŸ“šβ³πŸ“šπŸ–‹οΈπŸ“šβ°

5⭐ The interconnected stories take us through the journey of a father daughter team of restaurateurs and detective agency as they help their clients recreate specific dishes from memories. A delightfully unique cozy read, complete w/a cat named Drowsy #BookSky #Bookreview #cozymystery #mystery πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°

5⭐ What's not to love about Starter Villain, a fun, engaging book by @scalzi.com? Nerd references galore, snarky dialogue, spy cats, unionized dolphins, evil billionaires w/ cats & secret organizations, volcano lairs, & so much more. If you love quirky sci-fi this is for you πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺ #Booksky #BookReview

3.75/5 ⭐ I enjoy dual timeline books and this was no exception. Ursula's storyline was compelling and well told. I am happy with the way the book ended with some well deserved justice. #BookSky #Bookreview #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube #historicalfiction #timeslip πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ³πŸ“šπŸ–‹οΈπŸ“šβ°

4.25/5⭐ We finally get some revelations into Sylvia's parents & thus this mystery is more personal to the group. Very little moves forward in the relationships, but the draw is definitely becoming more tension filled. A lovely, cozy read. #BookSky #Bookreview #cozymystery #mystery #BookTok πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°

The Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai, translated by Jesse Kirkwood, is my new Libby ebook. So far a lovely, cozy read with wonderful food descriptions and a cute cat! #BookSky #Bookreview #cozy #cozymystery #mystery #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube #Library #FoodSky #CatSky πŸ’™πŸ“šβ°πŸ“šπŸ–‹οΈ

I got this beauty in the mail last week & started my 1st ever buddy read / readalong with the Renergades FB group on Mon. Super excited to start another @authorrachelrener.bsky.social series. The Lightening Conjurer, 1st book is The Awakening #BookSky #Bookreview #fantasy #romantasy #unboxing πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°

The House of the Witch by Clare Marchant is the current ebook. A dual timeline historical / contemporary fiction where the two FMCs must stand up to the abuses of men in their lives in very different, but connected, ways. #BookSky #Bookreview #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°πŸ“šβ³πŸ“šπŸ–‹οΈ

While I'm waiting on the rest of the group to finish shopping, I'm breaking out to read one of my new books from Barnes and Noble: Starter Villain by @scalzi.com published by @torbooks.bsky.social #BookSky #ScienceFiction #SciFi #cats #catsky #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°

Today's #trope - Books that play with a char's reputation vs reality. Not just secret identities, but where a character leverages or rejects how people perceive them. Or someone uncovers misinformation that's become legend. Do you like this trope? Give me any recs! 1/ πŸͺπŸ“šπŸ’™ #specfic #sff πŸ’¬πŸ“š

Can we do this for America?

Once again super late, but finally opening my March book box from @midnightmeadowpub.bsky.social featuring The Sea of Clouds, Imperial Mars #2 by @jennelikejennay.bsky.social #BookSky #Bookreview #sciencefiction #scifi #fantasy #lqbtq+ #queer #bookbox #bookish #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°

4.5/5⭐ More cohesive than the 1st, this is a complete standalone story. Still somehow straddling the line between dark & cozy fantasy, it drew me in from the start & held my attention w/both beautiful imagery & strong plot #BookSky #Bookreview #cozyfantasy #cozy #darkfantasy #ARCreader #ARC πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°

Audible is The Halfling's Harvest, Tales of Aedrea book 3, by @slrowland.com, narrated by @ericjasonmartin.bsky.social & Jessica Threet. I skipped book 2 in favor of this ALC, but they're standalones so I'm not worried about jumping around #BookSky #Bookreview #cozyfantasy #ALClistener #ALC πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺ πŸŽ§πŸ“šβ°

They’re not banning books because they’re dangerousβ€”They’re banning them because they expose the truth. πŸ“š Erased tells the history they tried to buryβ€”& now they’re coming for it. If it’s β€œtoo dangerous to teach,” you need to read it. ⚠️Read it before they ban it for good: stan.store/gxldsociety/...

Next ARC is Songs of Bone, Sin Eaters Tales book 2, by @jsnyderauthor.bsky.social While still following Asher, it is a standalone single story vs a collection of short stories #BookSky #Bookreview #cozyfantasy #cozy #darkfantasy #BookSirens #ARCreader #ARC #BookTok #Bookstagram #BookTube πŸ’™πŸ“šπŸͺπŸ“šβ°

My rereading of Artemidorus has revealed the existence of τυρομάντΡις (cheese diviners) [Oneirocritica 2.69] πŸ§€ and I feel this is an important -mancy to revive? Like why shouldn't my parmesan wheel also tell my future? Please and thank you. [Man grating cheese, ca. 500 BCE, from Rhitsona]
