I don’t give five stars to books very often, but Heartless Hunter deserves every single one of them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #booksky

About halfway through the Heartless Hunter by Kristen Ciccarelli, and I cannot tell you how much I wish I could stay up reading all night to finish it. Being an adult sucks sometimes. #booksky

Tell me you are a mood reader without telling me you are a mood reader. I’ll go first: my currently reading shelf is longer than my TBR. #booksky

Very much considering working on two projects at once even though I KNOW that is a horrible idea. But I’m feeling like maybe it won’t be so bad… #amwriting #writersky

Sat down to write this morning, and not .5 second later my 10 month old work up. Such is life, I suppose. #amwriting #writingcommunity #writersky

Finished the Knight and the Moth last night. It started off slow, then punched me in the gut. 4.5 ⭐️ #booksky

I just finished Ali Hazelwood’s Problematic Summer Romance, and I really enjoyed it! I’ve also started Rachel Gillig’s The Knight and The Moth, but I’m having a harder time getting into it.

I’m about five chapters in so far…I don’t hate it, but it’s not gripped me yet.

Ali Hazelwood’s Problematic Summer Romance is everything I want in a beach read. If only I had read it while on vacation, but that’s on me, not the book.

Went to the gym today. Should probably do that more often.

Jen Berlyn is ✨Drafting✨ @jenberlyn.bsky.social · 24/05/2025

About to start The Knight and the Moth, and I have a feeling it will either be a cannot put down book or I’m going to hate it. There will be no in the middle.

Writers are magic users. #writingcommunity

post from S.A. Hunt @authorsahunt
Look, I use alchemy to convert water & beans into coffee, then I convert coffee into secrets, secrets I then whisper into a magic box made of dead dragons & rare metal. The box sends these secrets to you inscribed on the skin of a dead tree & you have hallucinations.
I'm a witch.

Writing just to see what comes out is both terrifying and insanely freeing. #writersky #amwriting #writingcommunity

I recently did this and found switching out the coffee for any other beverage helped a ton! Good luck!!

Morning Bluesky! What are you up to today? I’m starting off with a strong latte and journaling before logging into work.

Baby snuggles, a cup of coffee, and crocheting. Can’t complain about the direction this morning has gone.

2) Beyond Anxiety by Martha Beck ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beck is one of my favorite author’s in the genre of self-help and I found her take on overcoming anxiety spirals both clever and impactful.

1) Daughter of Sparta by Claire M. Andrews ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Loved the world building and slow-burn romance in this YA Fantasy where the FMC is blackmailed into saving the Gods of Olympus.

The book cover for Daughter of Sparta by Claire M. Andrew. Shows the a Sparta warrior woman from behind. She is holding a spear.

Going to start sharing little reviews of my 2025 reads here. I’m a mood reader, so these will likely end up all over the place!

I haven’t worked on my WIP in…I don’t even know how long. BUT I’m starting to feel the itch again (probably because I have a hundred other things to do now) 🙃 #amwriting #writingcommunity

I’m one of those odd ducks that actually enjoys working from my company’s office. The environment there just better suits how my brain functions. Plus it makes WFH days like today a nice little treat.

Excited to start reading “Welcome to the Creative Club” by Pia Mailhot-Leichter via #NetGalley I’ve been in a creative funk the past few weeks, and I think it maybe just what I need. #WelcometotheCreativeClub

We learned about her in my high school German class and to this day I’m still amazed that she is not a more commonly known name.
