It's Whatcha Reading Wednesday! What book are you buried in right now? Post a picture/title below! I have finally started Light Bringer! #booksky #FantasyBooksSky #Sci-FiFantasyBooks #BskyBookClub #reading #RedRising #Lightbringer #Howlers #PierceBrown #pleasedon'tcrushmysoul #BookskySFF

A cartoon of a book being held by hands with the words, Whatcha Reading Wednesday.

The book cover has a solid, matte-black background, with a large golden Pegasus centered on the cover. The beast looks to be mid-stride. Positioned above it is the author's name, PIERCE BROWN, written in all-capital, clean dark yellow letters. To the left of the Pegasus, the book title, LIGHT BRINGER, is in all caps. Between the title and the horse's leftmost leg are the words: A RED RISING NOVEL, also in all-caps, yellow letters.

New Review: The Honey Witch A cozy #romantasy with a lovely narrator, cottagecore vibes, and a premise I desperately wanted to love. Unfortunately, I also wanted more world-building, character development, & lore. Find it here: tinyurl.com/2ajz4h46 #sapphic #booksky #fantasybooksky #Bskybookclub

The book cover of The Honey Witch by Sydney J. Shields. The cover features a charming, sun-drenched cottagecore aesthetic framed by an ornate, lush archway covered in colorful wildflowers and green foliage. Peeking through the archway is a cozy, rustic countryside house set against a warm and inviting background.

In a world that doesn’t give power freely, "Control" is a gripping reminder that the hardest‑earned strength is the one that keeps you alive. Full non-spoiler review: tinyurl.com/yceta3px #slowprogressionfantasy #dystopian #fantasy #debutauthor #booksky #bskybookclub #bookreview #survival #reading

Happy Mutt Monday! The weather had been great last week so we spent time in the backyard playing fetch and going for long walks on bike paths- meaning very tired boys! #muttmonday

Happy Caturday, y'all! Milly has had an eventful week with the windows open, bird/squirrel watching, and getting brushed several days to get rid of her winter coat! She is so soft and it's nice to pet because she isn't shedding nearly at all!

It's Whatcha Reading Wednesday! What awesome book(s) are you reading?! #booksky #horrorbooks #nonfiction #historicalfiction #mystery #thriller #mystery&thriller #fantasybooksky #sci-fifantasybooks #fantasy #youngadult #memoir #truecrime #history #action&adventure #autobiography #biography

Book with a weird creature on the cover in a forest with a giant wall behind it. Control: Pathways of Karr, Book 1. Written by D.H. Murray

An idyllic life, but for the death that stalks them.

Countless generations have carved safety from a ruined world. Hunted. Isolated. Defending their walls against shader-infested jungle.

The young choose a profession, decide what part they will play. Farmers, smiths, scribes… the roles are many, all vital in eking out another generation—and all paling beside those dedicated to war. This is the path Jotelan seeks.

Life, though, is rarely straightforward for a people spitting distance from extinction. The enemy, viciously predictable for centuries, is learning… adapting… taking interest in him.

Few plans survive the weight of such attention. Jotelan must find a new way forward, become stronger. Forge his own path.

And soon. For there exist far greater threats in this world than overrun jungles.

Control is the first book of Pathways of Karr, an epic fantasy progression series.

It's Wednesday!!! What book do you have your nose in this week? I finished Dark Age by Pierce Brown (I am currently writing the review) and I have started Control by D.H. Murray!

Picture of a creature (known as a Shader) in a forest outside of a giant wall. The book is called Control and is written by D.H. Murray.

An almost idyllic life, but for the death that stalks them.

Countless generations have built and toiled and loved, carving a vibrant niche from a world in ruin. Not easy, defending the walls against shader-infested jungle.

The young choose a profession, decide what part they will play. Farmers, smiths, labourers, scribes… the roles are many, all vital in eking out another generation—and all paling in comparison to those that dedicate to war. This is the path Jotelan seeks, well-worn track laid before him.

Life, though, is rarely straightforward for a people spitting distance from extinction. The enemy, viciously predictable for centuries, is learning. Adapting. Taking interest in him…

Few plans can survive the weight of such attention. Jotelan must find a new way forward, become stronger. Forge his own path.

And soon. For there exist far greater threats in this world than overrun jungles.

Control is the first book of Pathways of Karr, a series that weaves together progression, epic and high fantasy.

Happy Mutt Monday! Last weekend the boys enjoyed some much needed outdoor time with walkies and stick cleanup. They have been sleeping like champs :) I also made a killer stir-fry and they LOVED eating the peppers, peas, steak, and rice they were given!

Happy Caturday! Milly has had a pretty uneventful week with lots of love! I brushed her today and she seemed very content. We watched birds this week, took a nap under a blanket, rested our eyes, and sun bathed before the temperature dropped!
