I was born in the right generation. I love listening to Taylor Swift and reading books about men kissing

If a blurb starts with “yes, daddy!” It’s a yes from me 🙂‍↕️

Post your bookish content! One day you could be flown out to LA to celebrate books and reading with 100+ other bookish content creators, put up in the Beverley Wilshire (like, hello?!), and meet authors like Adam Silvera and R. F. Kuang 🤯

#shelvesandthecity LA was the absolute best 💖🫶

Can I interest you in a dark academia gay fey Romantasy?

This was my first Kellen Graves book and it certainly won’t be my last (and not just bc I didn’t realize this was the first in an 8 book series 😅)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5

Oh and it’s available on Kindle Unlimited! Full review posted on my Insta 🫶

Why is trying to decide what books to read while you’re traveling so stressful?! Like it has to be the right book so I don’t ruin the vibe, ya know?

Day 1 and I’m already straying from the TBR I shared on Substack 😅 being a mood reader is hard y’all

Brock’s Gay Bookshelf @brocksgaybookshelf.bsky.social · Mar 22

Couldn’t decide which book to start next from my Trans rights Readathon TBR but ended up going with TILL DEATH by Kellen McDaniel, a YA vampire romantic horror novel, that I literally just got in the mail from Simon Teen today 🩸

Got some Bookmail from Lush 🤩

They sent me a copy of Dylan Mulvaney’s new memoir PAPER DOLL and their limited-edition bath bomb—the Late Bloomer—which 75% of profits(minus taxes) go directly to trans-led orgs 🏳️‍⚧️ we love to see it 👏

Def adding this one to my #transrightsreadathon TBR 📚

They’re banning our books and defunding our libraries yet people still have the audacity to get on the internet and say that reading isn’t political

One thing about me is I LOVEEE a short chapter 😌

Brock’s Gay Bookshelf @brocksgaybookshelf.bsky.social · Mar 13

Finished reading THE PRINCE OF SORROWS by Kellen Graves on KU last night and then found out it’s gunna be an 8 book series 😳

Brock’s Gay Bookshelf @brocksgaybookshelf.bsky.social · Mar 13

A trilogy is the perfect series length for me 😌 I don’t have it in me for these 6+ book series these days

Brock’s Gay Bookshelf @brocksgaybookshelf.bsky.social · Mar 12

“I have been made a weapon and they plunged me into your heart.”

Recently read THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR and it was gorgeously written 😍 A sapphic love story unfolding across time and space through the correspondence between two rival agents. A short and unforgettable read!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5
