You're hot, cranky, and just want to hunker down in the A/C with a good book? Check out Temper, a dark academia/dark comedy where wayward twins try to exorcise their literal demons by blackmailing their way into a prestigious religious academy. Shop your local indie: bookshop.org/p/books/temp...

Tonight’s reading is going to be atleast 2 chapters of These Burning Stars by Bethany Jacobs. I keep not having the time to sink into this one so I am now on the couch, I have a blanket, and the phone is going away.

I want to build a reading routine before bed, so this is me documenting the effort! Tonight I am reading Violeta by Isabel Allende. I am about 75% of the way through and although it has not captured me as strongly as Long Petal of the Sea I have found her to be pleasant company on my commutes 💙📚

City of Others is a weird, spunky urban fantasy mystery that somehow compresses a nefarious corporation, scheming jinn, undead ducklings, wyverns, supernatural markets, and office politics into one seamless story. @bookjockeyalex.bsky.social recommends Jared Poon's Singaporean fantasy adventure:

🎃 NEW VIDEO! Today, I thought I'd have a little #Halloween fun and recommend you books that are "tricks" AND books that are "treats"—for the scare-averse and scare-seekers alike! 🎃🍬😈👻📚 #BookTube 📷 youtu.be/qC-Z3eC7KjE

Thumbnail image from Adri's latest video. In the photo, Adri is smiling and holding up a stack of eight books against their chest, the spines aligned vertically. The titles shown are as follows from left to right: "I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast is Me", "Lone Women", "The Hacienda", "Model Home", "Stitch", "Eva Evergreen, Semi-Magical Witch", "Never Whistle at Night", and "Dead & Breakfast". Adri is wearing a split tie-dye sweatshirt where one half is monotone black and the other half is orange and black tie-dye. They're also wearing a black hoop earring in their left ear, a black wire cuff on their right ear, and a black barbell studded with a tiny heart in their right eyebrow. At the top of the thumbnail in bold, white text are the word "Book Recs", which have been edited to appear behind Adri's head and shoulders. On the left hand side there's also an illustration of a ghost reading a book and on the right hand side is an illustration of a pumpkin bucket filled with candy. End description.

Update: actually read about 130 pages of this today so far! Been a long time since I just let myself read on a Saturday. Also this book is bleak but good and my favorite kind of near future scifi. Its also a Eurydice and Orpheus retelling and I am curious how that will come together

Thumbnail from Adri's latest YouTube video. In the photo, Adri is smiling and holding up one novella in each hand on either side of their chest. The novellas they're holding are "Cinder House" and "Fate's Bane". Two other novella covers have been edited into the thumbnail, one on either side, and those titles are "Spread Me" and "What Stalks the Deep". Adri is wearing an olive green t-shirt, a silver chain necklace, a silver hoop earring in their left ear, a silver wire cuff on their right ear, and a silver barbell studded with a gemstone flower in their right eyebrow. At the top of the thumbnail in bold, white text is the word "Novellas", which has been edited to appear behind Adri's head and shoulders as well as the pictured book covers. End description.
