Today is apples.

Thank you!

Oh no there’s a new Paul Tremblay coming too

I’m a voice-driven reader. Horror and speculative and weird are my genres, but within those? I’m reading for voice, not necessarily plot. That heart and humanity is what sticks with me.

Also, shoutout to the @mowillems.bsky.social pigeon books for brightening a NICU stay and the Scooby Doo choose your own adventure books my kindergartener got into for a fun blast of nostalgia.

And some not pictured because I read them in library ebook form: Hungerstone by @katalicedunn.bsky.social, Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino, Love and Other Conspiracies by @mallorymarlowe.bsky.social, Children of Lovecraft (edited by @datlow.bsky.social) and Thrill Me by @benjaminpercy.bsky.social.

I am in the newspaper business, so I get it :)

Thank you! I’ll keep an eye out this weekend and do that if it doesn’t show up by next week!

Totally fine with waiting, but what do we do if we suspect we’re in that 2%?
