my introduction to #booksky 📚💙

🪐i am first and foremost a sci-fi lover, favorite genre of all time in any media

⚔️i’m also trying to get into fantasy! if there’s romance i prefer it to be a subplot but i’ll give anything a try

📚my reading goal is to expand my genres and read from more countries!
in January, i read everyday for a challenge and finished 4 books. in February, i read 20 pages🫣

these are my two reading moods

i finished a closed and common orbit a few days ago🪐
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

i absolutely loved “Lovey” and Pepper (+ Blue, Tak, and Owl)! the whole time i was equally invested in both POVs and stories being told, i especially loved Pepper’s💙

this series is on track to becoming a favorite of mine👀

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you.

Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

Libraries & librarians have never been more important. If we care about the future, we must make sure every school, every community, every child has access to a library & a librarian. And we have to give them all our support, so they can do their vital work, which benefits us ALL! #SaveLibraries
