Happy Friday Gabino and everyone! It's a great weekend to check out my novellas. There's Lord Ruthven-winning romance and rhyme. There's Shirley Jackson-nominated "what-happened-to-her-eyes?!!!" Pick your poison, or try both! linktr.ee/authorlevai

My two novellas against a starry background: THE NIGHT LIBRARY OF STERNENDACH: A VAMPIRE OPERA IN VERSE, which has batwings, fangs, and a book on the cover. THE GLASS GARDEN has white letters on a kaleidoscope image.

It’s nice to see everyone’s textual analysis of The Odyssey It’s almost like the humanities give you entertainment, feelings, pleasure, and fun/interesting stuff to talk about, as well as lenses into both past and current society

Reading Strumpet City pushed me to explore Irish writing in a much more systematic way and ultimately led to me teach courses in Irish fiction (though I’ve still never taught Strumpet City).

I always hope I've found the perfect summation of a book before it's published. Every now and then, a reader comes along and proves I hadn't. Better late than never. Thanks @gabino.bsky.social #FridayReads Safe weekend to all. a.co/d/0eOBY02A 🖤

Saw a post where someone was excited about how many books they had read so far this year, and people were dunking all over them because it was a low number by their standards. Just, ew. Don't be like this. Who cares if you've read 150 books or 1. Read what you want when you want. Just read! 📚💙
