I read a lot of ARCs—so many that some people call me the ARC queen 😂. Yesterday, I decided to pick up a physical book I recently bought and I also finally want to read the books in this post this year. So, please keep your fingers crossed for me! #booksky #diversebooks #TBR

Some book covers are simply mesmerizing, and that’s certainly the case with Dustin Thao’s YA novels. The artwork is so gentle and heartfelt, and I love how all the covers complement each other so beautifully. @penguinteen.bsky.social

In the last few weeks, I tried to reduce the number of ARCs on my shelf, but that attempt … ultimately failed 😂 . NetGalley showed me so many new, great books I want to gush about. So, here are my latest approvals. Any you want to read? @edwardunderhill.bsky.social @missdahlelama.dahliaadler.com

Scholastic asks, "Do you want to opt out of 'diverse' books at your school's next book fair?" Your participation in white supremacy has never been easier, just uncheck the 'diverse' books box– poof, no problems. 🙄

Yesterday two ‘clean steam’ YA authors offerend me an ARC of their book and the expression clean steam has been bothering me since then. The ‘clean’ feels so wrong, especially in the week of the banned books.

Thank you to everyone who has bought LAVENDER HOUSE! If you enjoyed it, and want to preorder its follow-up... well, let's just say, if even half the people who bought Lavender house preordered The Bell in the Fog... that would make me very very happy. https://tinyurl.com/TBITF
