Currently Reading: Hearts Strange and dreadful Author: @timmcgregor.bsky.social Publisher: @rdspress.bsky.social McGregor’s horror just hits me in a way no other horrors do. I can’t quite pinpoint the exact reason why, but I think it has a lot to do with how realistic + human his narrators are.

“The pure act of celebrating in community disrupts a lot of binaries. And let’s be real, that sounds a lot like PRIDE.” The Buckeye Flame featured THE CASE FOR CRYPTIDS in a recent article. thebuckeyeflame.com/2026/09/15/o...

Ohio is a hotbed for queer cryptids. Yes, queer cryptids.
Ensconced in shadows and myth, cryptids often live along the edge of two worlds, almost invisibly.

#booksky 💙📚 Snuck in this quick read this evening. 5⭐️ full review in alt-text on image This book releases July 7th, 2026. @rdspress.bsky.social #TheLanguageOfKnives #NetGalley
Bookcover of The Language Of Knives by Haralambi Markov. Image shows a grey/green male body with incision marks across his chest like an autopsy pieced back together, he is laying on a bed of wildflowers. 

Review: 
5 stars
This is a collection of stories that tug at the emotions and sometimes roll the gut response. I don't know enough about Slavic mythology, but I enjoyed these short stories for the horrors they held. Lots of body horror, plenty of splashes of modern times. The Mall On The Hill By The Horizon was probably my favorite. Just give it a read! 
Thank-you, RDS Publishing and Haralambi Markov for this complimentary copy. Opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.
