Threads loved my latest cauliflower, so I thought I'd share it here too! So far, people have saved it for tattoo and bouquet ideas! As an Art Nouveau lover, it's probably one of my favourite ones! #gardening

Had the best dinner tonight, pumpkin and sage sauce with pasta and veggies! I grew the sage, the beetroot, the beans, and the cauliflower! There's something so rewarding about picking your own grown veg and instantly turning it into food. It's a privilege for sure 😊 #gardening

The way that Keres unwinds her story may appear confusing at first, but it's a really impressive way to convey amnesia and the fall out from trauma and illness. It married up well with the grief representation and pure heartbreak of this story. For a short story it packs a massive punch! #booksky

Reading The Rot in Our Ribcages, or any book by Macabre, feels like drinking a decadent glass of wine, sitting upon a throne, styled in jewels and fine silk. Every page turn brought more poetry and finesse. I will never be over how beautiful every element of this book is. It is artwork! #booksky

The rot in our ribcages by Sinclair a macabre
Tropes:
Vampires, necromancy, amnesia, dragon lore, sentient house, gothic

Quote:
I was nothing but a slaughterhouse, my exposed broken heart hanging from the hooks, my grief echoing off the cold floor. Inside me lived a morgue for all the things I’d lost when I lost him,

Although only a short story, West encompasses everything that makes her writing top-tier. The scene-setting and the atmosphere-building are incredible. You can feel your gut tightening with tension as you read; the hairs on the back of your neck rise with each page turn. Out 5th Oct #booksky

Tropes; home alone, ghosts, cornfields, short story, horror

Today's harvest from the garden! Love seeing things come into fruition! Not sure the sprouting cauliflower is doing well, said to harvest at 6-8 inches, which I've done, but it's very green 💚 the beetroots decided to harvest themselves, they had self ejected from the soil... #gardening

Lexy Night is a must-read author in this house; everything she writes is incredible! Its without a doubt one of my favourite takes on vampirism, with a unique perspective The only issue with this book is that now that Night has dabbled in the gothic, I want a full gothic book from her too #booksky

A small introduction into what to expect from me over the next couple of years! Do any of these excite or interest you? #booksky

Current wips

The Pocket Realm Witch
The curse of a Stolen God
Fruits of her labour
A book cover saying title to come

Debut - fruits of Her Labour

Life was normal. Predictable. Everything that most B&B owners like Delphine wanted. But a little more business wouldnt hurt. Or so she thought.

The curse of a stolen god

Dark fantasy with gothic themes problematic characters, fated mates but this is not a love story. Influenced by y greek mythology

The Pocket realm witch

Fantasy with time travel! For fans of howls moving castle. A sapphic romance between a time travelling witch and an assassin desperate for help

Title to come

A haunted house aloof housemates and a deal with the bargain god. She has come to collect on behalf of her god but instead she finds a family she longs to be a part of

Meet Delphine! Which personality trait gets you most excited? "Delphine gulped; the light touch of their hands meeting had sent a shock through her core. Nervous, she struggled to listen to Sarah when all she could think about was feeling Sarah's hand work its way over her body." #booksky

Artwork of Delphine, a woman with brown wavy hair and green eyes. She has freckles and dark red lipstick. The text around her reads:
Delphine, protagonist.
Certified yearner. Scared of the dark. Comes into power. Hardcore yearned. Aries energy. The chosen one. Dream walker. Queer. Loves the moon.

I cannot put into words how much I enjoyed this book. The FMC is stabby and strong, she's adult aged and thrown into the mix and doesn't back down with anything. The dragon mind connection is so much fun, one of my favourite dragon characters ever! Highly recommend this fantasy read! #booksky

Heri of god's and talons by rose caruso. Tropes; mind talk, hidden powers, stabby fmc, Norse mythology, portal fantasy.

This book is so enjoyable! It's just the right length to get whisked away into a new world, but without taking on a huge commitment Diodorus was my favourite character; I loved how he entwined spiritual beliefs with sci-fi elements. A superb short story that deserves to be read by all! #booksky

First light by Dan f Bispo. Tropes: low stakes, cozy sci fi, found family, disability rep. Quote: They saw the figure looking back at them, and, knee-jerk, smiled; the figure smiled back, and their brain registered it as their own face. The smile faded. Of all the people in the universe, only one of them bored Rook.
