The world in this hopepunk novella had me so intrigued. We follow survivors of a space crash who are in dire straits but it leads to an unexpected adventure with a chance to keep living. I highly recommend this sci-fi/fantasy novella by Nikky Lee. GR's review 🔗⬇️

I had a busy weekend, but I was able to read this fantastic horror novella, "This is Where We Talk Things Out" by @caitlinmarceau.bsky.social This book reminded me of Misery, but if Annie Wilkes was your mother. Tense, with heavy themes of familial trauma, and queer. Plus it's set in January!

Interrupting book content to celebrate Miles' birthday. Spoiled this boy with cake, a toy, and a 6 mile walk. What a day! Now he is snoring away.

I got my reading buddy to keep me warm as I start "An Academy for Liars" by Alexis Henderson. This is a library book that's due soon, so I decided to pick it up now. Plus, it's in reach since I don't want to disturb my buddy while he sleeps. 💙📚🪐

Out of the 61 books I read in 2024, I picked out these 10 books (accidentally happened), which come to mind when I look back at the year. Even though it was a slow year, I still had some great reads. I also learned I like short stories which is still shocking to me. 😂 💙📚🪐

It feels great to finally play a game made in this decade. I'm having so much fun playing Cyberpunk 2077. Husband and I have been reluctantly taking turns on the new gaming pc.

Jess @gaigemaid.bsky.social · 27/12/2024

I sat down and planned out the 25 books I plan to read for 2025. A lot was going on in 2024 so I anticipate 2025 to be a much better year of reading. Have you read any of these 25 books? Are there any you are planning on reading in 2025? 💙📚🪐

One more to go. Yesterday was a hectic day of work and travelling so I didn't have a chance to read and review this one. Caught up now while everyone is sleeping and it was emotionally packed but left me smiling at the end.
