Just dropped a list of neo-noir book recs for anyone who loves gritty crime fiction and dark thrillers. If you’re into flawed narrators and fast-moving revenge stories, this one’s for you. 📚🖤 #NoirBooks #CrimeFiction #ThrillerBooks #BookRecs #Hardboiled

I dread reading SA Cosby’s novels, mostly because he does the thing I want to do so much better than I could ever do it. Blacktop Wasteland is yet another example. #booksky #books @blacktopkid.bsky.social

What I REALLY liked about Sinners was the writing in the first hour. Ryan Coogler came to this project with something to say, and this movie should be a reminder to all of us about what is to be loved about going to the theater. #movies #horror #horrormovies #sinners

What is everybody’s take on Exquisite Corpse? I just finished it this weekend, and honestly it was both one of the best-written and most unsettling things I’ve ever read. #booksky #books #horror #horrorbooks

Just started “Cogan’s Trade” by George V. Higgins (which became “Killing Them Softly” in theaters). Some of the grittiest and most well-written dialogue this side of Elmore Leonard. I’ve never seen an author characterize people so well through their words. #booksky #books

My Dark Vanessa is, as @stephenking.bsky.social says in his blurb, “A well-constructed package of dynamite.” 🧨 📕 📖 📚 #books #booksky #book

Book cover of ‘My Dark Vanessa’ by Kate Elizabeth Russell. The black-and-white image shows a close-up of a young woman’s face with her eyes closed. A butterfly rests on her fingers, partially covering one eye. The title ‘My Dark Vanessa’ is overlaid in white text, with a quote from Gillian Flynn praising the novel. The author’s name appears at the bottom.

Wake Up and Open Your Eyes is a horror novel about zombies being brainwashed by a propaganda outlet, and I didn't know I needed this in my life until I started reading it. #booksky #books #horror #horrobooks

Olivetti (middle grade fiction) is a surprisingly poignant and unexpectedly emotional novel about life told from the perspective of a discarded typewriter. #books #booksky 📚 📖 📕

I ended up absolutely loving Red Rising. I cannot believe I almost put that book down. Still, I needed a palate cleanser afterward, so I am re-reading Stephen King's 'Skeleton Crew,' because I saw 'The Monkey' last night and could not believe it was purported to be the same text. #books #booksky

Okay, I’ve got to be honest: I didn’t love Red Rising for the first…several hours? That said, there’s a plot shift—I won’t say twist—that happens a little over halfway through, and I’ve locked IN on this book. Can’t wait to finish it. #books #booksky

What’s the consensus on “A Touch of Jen?” I’m roughly 1/3 of the way through it, and I’m not loving it. #books #booksky

The year is young yet, but it’ll take quite the thoroughbred to outpace this book. A few hundred pages of pure poetry. #books #booksky 📚

Here is an alt text description for the image:

Book cover of The Heart in Winter by Kevin Barry. The background is a bold red color. The title, “The Heart in Winter,” is in large black serif font at the top, with “A Novel” in smaller text beneath it. Below the title, “Author of Night Boat to Tangier” is written in small uppercase letters. The author’s name, “Kevin Barry,” appears in bold black letters at the bottom.

The central image is a large, irregularly shaped beige heart, resembling a rugged landscape. Within the heart’s upper section, a silhouette of two figures on horseback is seen against a yellow sun. The illustration has a minimalist and abstract style, evoking a sense of solitude and vastness.

Sinclair' Lewis's 1935 dystopian novel, It Can't Happen Here, follows the election of a populist named "Buzz" Windrip, who takes complete control over the government after appealing to the "forgotten man" in America. #books #booksky #dystopia #handmaidstale 📚

Friendly reminder that if you buy a book on Kindle, you're only paying for the rights to read, not own. If a book truly gets banned, it will be taken away from digital platforms like Kindle, nook, etc. Consider getting physical copies of banned (or other) books! READ BANNED BOOKS #booksky

Based on a friend’s rec, I am reading The Intruder, by Daniel Hurst. It is the very definition of readable. Definitely a book I’d suggest for people in a reading slump. #books #booksky 📕 📚
