Just a reminder that reading is supposed to be fun and not a competition. So even if you only read one book this entire year, you're killing it. #booksky #readers #books #readinggoal

Just finished Something is Killing the Children: Hope is a Knife. Solid novel. Kiersten White really captured the tone of SiKtC and Erica’s voice. I loved the antagonist. One of those characters you love to hate. Gonna write up my full review over the weekend to post next week. #booksky #bookreview

My book review of Baldur's Gate III: Astarion by T. Kingfisher is up on the other place. She understands Astarion through and through, in my opinion, and captured his essence with every word 🔗🔽 #bookreview #booksky #astarion

I didn’t think I’d get this review written this week only because work has me fried. But! “The Rouse was 1,246 pages of metaphors mixed with philosophy, intertwined with horror, science fiction, a dash of espionage thriller, and a side of contemporary fiction.” 🔗⬇️ #booksky #books #chinamieville

65% into The Rouse, and while I'm enjoying it, it's difficult to read at times. It's like maneuvering through a crowd at Coachella in heavy heavy fog. #booksky #bookquote #reading

Been reading The Rouse, a 1300-paged tome, for the past week. Absolutely love China Miéville’s writing, and this is written like nothing else of his that I’ve read before. #booksky #books #ghoststory #reading

The more I read Why I Love Horror, the more I realize people didn’t take the horror genre seriously. Meanwhile, I’m over here loving horror because I think it’s a great genre to thoroughly explore the human condition #booksky #horror #horrorbooks #reading

This was a fucking fantastic #book. It has easily nestled its way into my top 5 list. The omnibus I have has 5 books from the series, so I’m gonna read one a month. And anyone who says Marvin wasn’t the best character doesn’t know how to read #scifibooks #booksky

I’m still in the middle of my #Dune Messiah reread, but felt like it’s about time I get back to reading more than just ᑐᑌᑎᕮ, so I started The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy last night. This shit is funny. #books #booksky #scifibooks

ᑐᑌᑎᕮ is now the first book I’ve ever reread and I’m so glad I did. I think I’ve fallen in love with it all over again. Rediscovered details I had forgotten, noticed some I completely missed the first time, and annotating it has given me a new level of enjoyment out of it. #Dune #booksky #scifibooks

My kid walked in and threw a present at me, demanding I open it. The book is cool (currently reading it on my Kindle) but the 3D-printed Dune bookmark is the highlight for me. I love this kid 🥰 #booksky #scifibooks #Dune

I started another book. When did Staircase in the Woods come out? Last April? Whenever, that was the last time I read a @chuckwendig.bsky.social book and it was too long ago. Reading this is like a breath of fresh air. #booksky #urbanfantasy #horrorbooks #fantasybooks

I hope more people watch Stick on Apple TV+ for no other reason than to bring Cecelia back into the mainstream. I love that song. It's a really good show, though, about golf, second chances, grief, and family (found and blood). I'm on my 3rd rewatch. I need a second season ASAP. #TVsky #tvseries

Just wanted to share what my January looked like reading-wise. I don't even think I can choose a favorite because they were all great books in their own way (but Leviathan Wakes and Library at Mount Char are the frontrunners) #booksky #scifibooks #fantastbooks #readingupdate

If you're a fan of being mildly confused throughout the entire story where nothing fits but it all somehow still makes sense, check out The Library at Mount Char. This was such a fun ride, and I hear there's gonna be a sequel. I don't hate that. #booksky #newweird #scifibooks

Threads saw it first, but I want to be more active here. Just finished Leviathan Wakes. It was fantastic. I loved the different factions and the characters. Everyone is so fleshed out with their own distinct personalities and cultures. It just drew me in more. #booksky

Stop reposting Nick Fuentes. Yes, even to dunk on him. Yes, even to point out how depraved he is. You are platforming him. No, you are not helping "expose" him. He is fully exposed.

I can not wait for this movie. @jamesgunn.bsky.social based on this trailer and the teaser, I think you nailed it the character. That "People were going to die" line goes hard. Can't wait for #Superman www.imdb.com/video/vi3115...

Hate this a lot. Value human creators, writers, artists, narrators, editors -- everyone in the chain of making a book and putting it out into the world should be a human being. Humans make art for humans. P.S. fuck AI -- eat shit, artbarf robots www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m...

There's been some discourse on #BookTok about problematic authors and how readers can't be expected to know about EVERY author. I can't speak for everyone, but I just expect people to be receptive rather than dismissive when informed about problematic behavior. Don't think that's too much #BookSky

It's weird having good news in a time of what is essentially a period of political and cultural sewage, but umm hey, THE STAIRCASE IN THE WOODS is a USA Today bestseller! So thanks to everyone who has checked the book out. Y'all are the most bestest readers around. <3

The Staircase in the Woods
by Wendig, Chuck
A group of friends investigates the mystery of a strange staircase in the woods in this mesmerizing horror novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Accidents. "Chuck Wendig weaves his magic once more, turning a lonely staircase in the woods into a searing, propulsive, dread-filled exploration of the horrors of knowing and being known."--Kiersten White, author of Hide and Lucy Undying Five high school friends are bonded by an oath to protect one another no matter what. Then, on a camping trip in the middle of the forest, they find something extraordinary: a mysterious staircase to nowhere. One friend walks up--and never comes back down. Then the staircase disappears. Twenty years later, the staircase has reappeared. Now the group returns to find the lost boy--and what lies beyond the staircase in the woods. . . .

Starting to wish @skylight.social allowed videos longer than 3 minutes. I've made a couple #book review videos that I can't post on there because they're over 3 minutes long and they're already edited down. Any more and I'm cutting out important details.
