Just started The Knight and The Moth by Rachel Gillig and I already know this is going to be amazing. No one does imagery quite like Rachel. I love the atmosphere of her books so much #theknightandthemoth #rachelgillig #gothicfantasy

I DNF’d so many books in the month of February but I’m finishing up Binding 13 from The Boys of Tommen series and wow this books is really under hyped. I love all the characters #binding13 #boysoftommen #booksky

#darkromance readers what’s your favorite book or series? I keep seeing the same couple of books recommend and I’ve read most of them. (The lords, legacy of the gods, Haunting Adaline- DNF this one, to name a few) My tbr is so romantasy heavy I want to switch it up #booksky

I decided to switch to audible to read For the Wolf. I’m almost done the story is so slow moving I’m struggling to get through it but it’s starting to finally pick up. I haven’t been feeling anything I’ve been reading this month #readingslump

Had my first #dnf book of the year. I only had one last year. I usually try and finish them even if I’m not loving it in hope the author will pull it all together in the end but sometimes I’ve just had enough. Are you a DNF person if you dont like a book or do you see it through? #booksky

I just started For The Wolf by Hannah Whitten my book club on fable is reading it this month. I went into it completely blind not knowing what it’s about, but so far it’s really good. Dark kind of gothic vibes. What’s everyone else currently reading? #booksky #fable #forthewolf #gothicfantasy

What’s everyone currently reading? I’m reading #Manacled and wow it’s got me out of my reading slump for the past few weeks. I can’t put it down

I finally finished #ironflame and it has me so on the fence about reading #onyxstorm I hate leaving stories unfinished but that book felt like it dragged on and on for me. I’m surprised because I couldn’t put #fourthwing down

It’s Friday…time to disassociate from reality and read all weekend. The news is seriously taking a mental toll on me this week

Reading is political.

Reading has always been political.

Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground.

Been a candle maker for the last 5 years and have never released anything for Valentine’s Day but I think this one was with the wait! I love the fun jar. #candlemaker #valentinesday What do you think?

It’s 19° out tonight and maintenance still hasn’t fixed my heat so I’ll be burried under heated blankets franticly trying to finish #ironflame tonight so I can read #onyxstorm with everyone before I start seeing spoilers #booksky 📚 💙

Just finished Master of Salt & Bones 📚. Was not my favorite. I felt like there were so many lose ends that weren’t tied up in the end and my heads spinning trying to make sense of some of it. #booksky

What was your favorite read last year? I’m a mood reader and nothing on my TBR is speaking to me so I’m making a list. My favorite was a tie between Anathema by Keri Lake or The Shepherd King duology by Rachel Gillig. I can’t pick. I absolutely loved them both.

Ok #booksky, let’s talk.

👎🏼Goodreads, owned by Amazon, fuels its monopoly on books.

👍🏼StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform, offers an ethical, ad-free alternative with mood-based recommendations, user control over data, and a focus on inclusivity. Support diversity over corporate power!

Finished up my test burns for my Valentines candle. Just have to finalize the label. This doesn’t do the jar justice it’s a really pretty iridescent pink. I’m working on a book and reading themed collection next! #candlemaker

Starting Master of Salt & Bones by @kerilakeauthor.bsky.social for book club tonight. Obviously had to add the blue underwater ambiance haha. I’m very excited to read this Anathema was in my top 3 books I read last year and I can’t wait to read more of her books
