Hi my name is Sara and I make book and media themed macarons for fun! I also occasionally host macaron giveaways for charity/causes I care about 🙌 Here are some of my favorite bookish macarons I've made! #Booksky #Baking #Macarons

Re: #JimmyKimmel & the blatant attacks on free speech, took me ages to cancel Hulu, every time I clicked the "cancel subscription" button the page would just refresh, finally found a workaround by going to the troubleshooting page: help.hulu.com/contact-us/a...

I would sincerely appreciate it if justice-minded readers of SFF would reskeet the below post, I am sincerely trying to fill out this list and right now I have two (2) men on it

which, you know, statistically, would track! but I’d be very happy to be wrong about men being terrible, this one time

Charlotte Moore-Lambert @charlottereads.com · Aug 30

I’m working on a fairly quick and dirty list of pro-Palestine speculative fiction authors and so far everyone I can think of or find is female or gender nonconforming. which is great! but uhhhh where are the men

Another favorite to add to the list who has been very vocal about Gaza is Sangu Mandanna author of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches and A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping 🥰 (I will have to think about the men authors a bit more the first few to come to mind aren't SFF authors)

Had an amazing time last night in Boston meeting Sangu Mandanna at @lovestruckbooks.bsky.social 🥰🙌 I even got to give her some of the macarons I made for A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping

A photo collage of three pictures of Sara and Sangu at Sangu's book signing event.

Picture of two paperback books, A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping and The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches. The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches is open and on the title page it is signed by Sangu Mandanna and also says Thank you for the incredible macarons!

A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping and pink and green macarons with decorations and designs painted on them inspired by scenes and characters from the book.

I'm sorry to all the summer girlies, but I am CRAVING fall. We are about to be in a massive heat wave and it's not even July yet 😭. Gonna disassociate and pretend it's apple cider and PSL season instead. Maybe reread some books that feel like Autumn. Anyway y'all should read Thistlefoot✨🙌 #booksky

Here's my video from the African warehouse with millions of doses of medicine -- gathering dust and approaching expiration because Trump/Musk/Rubio dismantled USAID. Infuriating. www.nytimes.com/video/opinio...

These boxes of drugs could change millions of lives. Instead, they’re stuck in this warehouse.

Hey #booksky it's been a minute! I finished You Started It by Jackie Khalilieh the other day and really enjoyed it! If you want a light & cozy-ish read, enjoy teen romcoms and the fake dating trope, then I think you will love this! Also both the main characters are Arab & the author is Palestinian 🥰

Sara's hand holding up the hardcover version of the book You Started It by Jackie Khalilieh in front of a multicolored paper flower wall. The cover of the book is pastel blue, pink, purple and yellow and features the characters Axel and Jamie standing in front of a rollercoaster ride.

I’m really itching to find urban fantasy or speculative romance to publish at Mareas, preferably by authors of color but open to all.

If you have something for me to read, agented or unagented, please reach out!

Anyone ever get those spam messages from fake celebrity accounts? Like "hi beautiful I'm Harry Styles and I really want to chat with you, this is my side account" or whatever? Yeah I got one for those today but it was a fake El*n M*sk 😭😭😭
