Hi there! I’m Kerie, a 🏳️‍🌈 bookish content creator hailing from Booktok (tiktok.com/@readinginta... ). I hear this is the place to find bookish community, so…if you liked any of these books (or just generally enjoy reading diverse, queer, speculative fiction) let’s be friends! #booksky

October is Substance Use Prevention Month & stories of addiction and recovery remind us that healing is not linear, and that there is no single “right” path to recovery. Representation gives language, visibility, and hope to those who may feel alone in their journey. Here are some recs! #booksky

I don't know why I had to make this, but I had to make this.

Three image tiles. The first image tile is part of the cover for SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN, highlighting the title. The second image tile is Fred Savage sitting in his bed in THE PRINCESS BRIDE, looking wary and asking, "Is this a kissing book?" The third image tile is a xenomorph from Alien, jaws open, looming through steam and darkness, and saying, "...Kind of."

If you are still curating your TBR for Sapphic September and enjoy speculative fiction genres, I have a few suggestions for you…

What other books are on your list for this month?

The @illumicrate.bsky.social 10th Anniversary Farseer Trilogy special edition set is finally here and the ARTWORK has me totally spoiled. Each piece of art detailed a favorite scene or character from this series that literally does not ever leave my mind. I’m obsessed 😍 #booksky

My dream of having a special edition of Black Sun by @rebeccaroanhorse.bsky.social has finally come true, and the in-chapter ARTWORK 😍😍. This series WON A HUGO last week, by the way, for Best Series and it was so incredibly well deserved. I can’t wait to display this whole set on my shelf! #booksky

I was influenced to pick up Tiny Book Shop (a cozy little switch game where you decorate your mobile bookshop & drive around recing & selling books) and now I am addicted 😂 I spent my Sunday playing and listening to The Unbroken by C.L. Clark (which isn’t cozy at all!). How was your Sunday? #booksky

When the real world is too loud, I turn to stories that swallow me whole.
Here are some of the most immersive SFF series to lose yourself in with rich worlds, fierce characters, high stakes, and the kind of emotional devastation we crave. Are any of these already in your radar? #booksky

Book mail days are the best days and this stack is full of genre-bending gems! Thank you to @pantheonbooks.bsky.social @htpbooks.bsky.social @htphive.bsky.social and Page Street YA for the review copies! Which should I pick up first? #booksky

(Check Alt Text for book description!)

The Volcano Daughters: historical fiction meets mythic fury, following two sisters escaping a brutal regime in El Salvador, trailed by ghosts that refuse to be silenced.

Beasts of Carnaval: gothic fantasy drenched in colonial reckoning, ancestral memory, and a mysterious, monstrous island festival where no one leaves unchanged.

Verity Vox and the Curse of Foxfire: cozy-meets-creepy YA with a witch apprentice, missing townsfolk, and ancient magic awakening under the mountain.

A Magic Deep & Drowning: a Dutch Golden Age retelling of The Little Mermaid with secrets, sea bargains, and a slow-burn descent into magic and danger.

MESSY. TRAGIC. GAY. FANTASY.
I’m so in! The Sins on Their Bones by Laura R Samotin kicks off this dark Jewish folklore inspired fantasy duology about two estranged husbands on opposite sides of a civil war & a daring spymaster caught in the crossfire. Thanks PRH Canada! #booksky

Hey Kerie, what are some of your favorite fantasy series? Well, this completed, queernormative, indigenous, epic fantasy for starters! The Between Earth & Sky trilogy by @rebeccaroanhorse.bsky.social!
Mirrored Heavens now in paperback! Thank you @sagapressbooks.bsky.social! #booksky #sagasayscrew

This photo shows the paperback edition of Mirrored Heavens by Rebecca Roanhorse on a wooden bookstore shelf, nestled between other books in the Between Earth and Sky series. The cover art features an image of a woman’s face in cool shades of teal and blue. Her eyes glow faintly, and her hair is an intricate mass of feathers, braids, and sea creature-like shapes. Above her head is a endorsement from R.F. Kuang that reads: “Roanhorse is at the top of her game here.”
