I’m dying to the folks saying “but TTPD was the most streamed and best selling album” - this isn’t the Spotify Awards. They made sure to mention 13,000 Grammy voters so be mad at them. Cowboy Carter fans rise up!!

The purpose of yesterday was to frighten us to submitting in advance. I have my freedom of speech and I will use it here and everywhere else I exist online to make my voice heard. No oligarch, no president will silence me. So, be prepared for more Latinx books just as soon as my mourning ends, okay?

Yesterday trans and nonbinary people watched orders signed that say they shouldn’t exist. Undocumented immigrants are scared for themselves and their children. Educators are worried about fighting to teach the truth. They want us too scared to mobilize. We can’t give them that satisfaction.

TikTok being gone for 12 hours with that fancy little message thanking Trump better be suspicious to you all. Especially since there was not actual enforcement of the ban. They didn’t have to go dark. This is all a ploy. Democrats making dumb choices. Trump and TT CEO think we’re stupid.

A MAN FOR MRS. CLAUS is here! 🎄Get it on Payhip + WRAPPED for 25% off! : payhip.com/b/qcCnS 🎄am: amzn.to/4fhcltb 🎄more : books2read.com/u/mvVDDl 🎄b&n: www.barnesandnoble.com/w/a-man-for-... cover art by: @chiguma.bsky.social cover design by: @mostlybree.kitrocha.com

A Man for Mrs. Claus book cover. Two black people smooching under the mistletoe. imagine Winston Duke is a firefighter and he's making out with Precious Lee who is Mrs. Claus with a bob.

Running the North Pole and making good on the promise of comfort and joy for a few billion people is no simple two-step around the Christmas tree. Mr. and Mrs. Claus have always worked in tandem to do just that. So when her third husband realizes it’s time to peace out and move on to more Heavenly pastures, the angels and all the elves know what time it is. They need to find Tiffany Saint-Nicholas a new man.

With the holiday calendar slowing down for no one, her team has three days to find her a new Santa. Someone kind, loving and willing to take on the spirit of the season, and with the potential to be Tiffany’s first true love match. Tiffany thinks that idea is cute and all, and so are the men they line up for her. But she knows delivering on their Christmas obligations is what really matters, not the chemistry she might have with the candidates in question. Too bad one prospective Santa will stop at nothing to show her and the rest of the North Pole population that no amount of silver or gold is more important than winning Tiffany’s heart.

Highly recommend this podcast from Code Switch “Taylor Swift and the unbearable whiteness girlhood.” It talks about who is allowed to be a girl and how the Kanye interruption helped set the stage for Taylor Swift to always be protected. open.spotify.com/episode/3yDo...

If you love dark academia, creepy fungi, hot doctors and unreliable heroines read Grave Matter by Karina Halle. I read a bunch of Karina’s romantic suspense books years ago and this has now taken over my brain and idk what to do with myself besides googling “dark fungi”. Pick up this book!

Walmart is not just ending DEI programming. They are dropping small businesses, diverse suppliers, and Pride events. They are not renewing a $100m commitment to Center for Racial Equity. The impact of this is going to be monstrous. The impact on PEOPLE - makes me sick. www.cnn.com/2024/11/25/b...

Listening to the audiobook of Reel (Kennedy Ryan) as a re-read is a JOY OMG. The audio is stunning and I’m loving this reread. Bookthreads - do you reread books? When you do, is it in a different modality than the first time you read it? #Booksky

I’m revealing a new cover today! More dogs. More fun. More romance in this romcom. Pugs & Kisses will be available next summer!

Cover for Pugs and Kisses, a romcom from Farrah Rochon. Photo features an illustration of a light skinned Black woman in a short white dress walking a pug, along with a dark skinned Black male walking a papillon along St. Charles Avenue in New Orleans. There are oak trees and a New Orleans streetcar in the background. Available July 15, 2025.

From the outside, veterinarian Evie Williams appears to have the perfect but boring life. She is desperate to figure out a way to shake it up, but gets more than she bargained for when she finds her fiancé in bed with another woman. Suddenly, Evie is without a fiancé or a job, and isn’t sure what her next steps should be. That is, until her college crush, Bryson Mitchell, returns to town.

Now, a nationally recognized veterinary surgeon, Bryson is stunned when he encounters Evie Williams for the first time in half a decade. When they learn the animal shelter where they used to volunteer is in danger of closing, the two must work together to save it. It has Bryson wondering, can he and Evie also save the friendship they once shared and finally bring it to the next level?

Available in paperback, ebook, and audio on July 15, 2025.
