Happy book birthday to meeee 🎵🎶 To Our Untamed Core is OUT NOW! This book is incredibly special to me. It’s my first book with a trans protagonist, and my first book releasing with my new name. It’s terrifying and so so special. I am so grateful to finally be able to share this one with all of you💛

Last chance to pre-order Sonido's new book! It's always a fun rush of vicarious emotion when a local friend's book launches. Like Man, I remember you brainstorming that thing.

Quiz taken! I'm 69% Temo, 57% Ollin, and 36% Socoyote, which honestly tracks for me, I think. Has anyone else entered the schmivaway yet? I can't wait for y'all to be able to read this incredibly special book in less than a week!

honestly so incredibly pleased with this result.

Jonny’s results for the Which TO OUR UNTAMED CORE Character Are You? quiz, which gave them Socoyote as their first result, with a 45% match. There is artwork of Socoyote, a lean, brown, adolescent boy wearing a loose grey tank, with shoulder length black hair. For his results description, it states “Despite the cards you've been dealt, you try your best to see the good in people. You're a kind soul, though you might benefit from thinking things through before acting on your impulses.”

Think The Hunger Games but... -If the “Capitol” were more like the conquistadores. - A love triangle that’s queer on all three sides. - Catholic inspired world-building. A trans main character with a lot of deconstructing to do." On the left side of the graphic is the cover for To Our Untamed Core by Sonido Reyes

The rumors are true! (and I may or may not have started them 🤭) To Our Untamed Core is coming September 22 to a bookstore near you. I’m so freaking proud of this book and I hope you all love it as much as I do 💛 Art: Pablo Hurtado de Mendoza @powl_art Design: Jessie Gang

A graphic with text on the top reading "COVER REVEAL" and on the bottom reading "Coming September 22, 2026" with an illustrated book cover with text at the top that reads: award-winning and bestselling author Sonido Reyes. The title at the bottom reads: To Our Untamed Core. A Brown boy stands in front of the title font with his back to the "camera" looking off to the side. There is a hole through his back that has a beam of light shining through it. In the distance is a pyramid with the sun behind its peak, the sunlight shining straight through the hole in the boy's back.

Centuries after the conquistadors claimed the Afueras for their own, Temo spends his life obeying the Holy Order’s decree, undergoing their sacraments to tame his supposedly violent nature. The only rule he breaks: hiding that he’s trans. If that fact is discovered, Temo will face El Torneo, a brutal, fight-to-the-death game pitting the untamed against one another. No Afuereño who enters El Torneo ever escapes with their life. But when Temo’s boyfriend is unexpectedly arrested and thrown into the deadly tournament, he’ll do anything to rescue Ollin from his gruesome fate, even if it means entering El Torneo himself. Only there's far more to this tournament than meets the eye—survival is just the beginning. When the cost of saving the one he loves is higher than he ever imagined, is Temo willing to pay it?

Pick your favorite 3 challenge ok go!

A graphic that reads: If every American did 3 of these 5 things, ICE would be stopped in its tracks. Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good were both shot by ICE agents on camera. Both times, the President blamed the civ Tim and excused ICE agents. We move NOW or hand over our rights. 1. Call law-makers. Deadline: January 30th. Google “(your city) senators” call of of them and say: I’m (name) from (city/zip). Defund ICE by opposing any DHS appropriations bill that maintains ICE funding, and support legislation that claws back the $75 billion ICE slush fund created by H.R. 1 last year.” When leaving a voicemail, give your full address so call is tallied 2. Boycott these campanile. They profit from and support ICE. They get no more from us. Home Depot, target, amazon, Whole Foods, Hilton hotels 3. Prepare your community. A local network of witnesses and whistleblowers can keep families together and save lives. Organize with neighbors. Know your rights. Know theirs. 4. Make recurring donations. Fund the lawyers fighting ICE through legal channels: Impact fund (immigrant rights portfolio) National Immigrant Justice Center, Immigrant Defense Project 5. Share this. Take a photo of this. Sent it to friends, post it on social media, print it out and slip it under doors. This is not the time for quiet opinions.Pick 3 or 4. Do them this week. Not for me, not for yourself, but for a very uncertain future. For Renee Good and Neither Porter. For future generations.

PSA that the "I'm getting pulled over" siri shortcut also works for ICE If you need to record what's happening and also need people to know where you are immediately, you can set up the shortcut so it automatically sends your location to predetermined contacts and starts a discreet audio recording
