Again!! This is out of control 😂 I usually don’t watch much CNN, but now I can’t turn it off. #HeatedRivalry has truly taken over the pop culture zeitgeist.

Made this for my bookshop, but why not share it here, some of my top books I read in 2025! Clearly I'm a genre-hopping mood reader.

Canon by Paige Lewis. Y'all need to pre-order it right now. So weird and delightful.
OK, #BookSky While we're all processing 2025 in our own special ways, I want to know one thing. What was the weirdest book you read this year?

I'm not sure if I'm just good at knowing what I'll enjoy, or that as a writer I'm just unwilling to shit on people's books very often, but it's extremely rare that I genuinely dislike a book I pick up.

We're doing most of our Christmas celebrating this weekend, so today I'm baking (more) cookies, and experimenting a little. Made some butterscotch dipped sugar cookies and they're fire.

This person repeatedly messages my shop and asks for Marvel books every few months, and I've told them repeatedly they can search our website, and they have the audacity to once again message with the same question on Christmas Day. 🙄🤬

So is the plan for AI to be its own fix? because we sure are pretty comfortable using it for dumb shit even though it's ruining the planet (even more than it already was).

I find it very intriguing that this Lifetime Xmas movie that has "Thank God" in the title heavily implies that these two lovebirds have premarital relations multiple times, and then ends with a scene at church. Christianity is different than when I was a kid.

My geriatric beagle has finally allowed me to put a vest on him without struggling out of it. I think he just wants to be warm in his sunset years.

Finally got a chance to sit down with this masterpiece this week. I've got about 1/3 left, but it's been such a fun ride. Cannot wait to sell this lovely human's amazing novel.

I can't stress enough that you should take every opportunity that comes your way to support your local public libraries. Many of them are currently struggling and are being DEFUNDED. Local action matters on this front. Don't sit back until those libraries are gone before taking ACTION.
