I don't. Been married for 12 years and it would still be really weird to me to do that.

Sounds awesome. I'll give it a read and I'll try to get a review up in December. If not, then January for sure!

I was SO happy to get an e-arc of this I read it well before I had planned. And now my TBR is messed up, but that's okay. #BrigandsAndBreadknives #BookReview #Booksky youtu.be/VytYj2DyBzA

I got a ticket for going 41 in a 30. I deserved the ticket, and paid it. Hardly a scam, though I do think speed cams aren't a fair system as $75 is just a speeding toll to a rich person but a lot if you're lower income, so not a great deterrent. Not sure how to remedy that though.

Due to several factors my own writing was on hiatus for a bit, but I'm so happy to finally be back working on a project. Let's hope the momentum holds! 🥰

I'd say around 12-15%. Of the 100 or so a year, 12-15 are audiobook. I love them for long fantasy especially.

Sorry I was so busy I barely got on socials since Tuesday morning my time! It's in the same universe but not related at all.

A wonderful example of how to do modern Gothic horror. A great balance of creepy, visceral scenes and deeper themes. And I learned about Filipino history too! @daphnefama.bsky.social #TheHouseofMonstrousWomen #BookReview #booksky #📚💙 #horror #gothichorror youtu.be/IJUkBleaIoY

This one hit a bit too close to home while I was reading it, but aside from that, I thought it was a great blend of cozy and serious, with an important message about human rights (in the guise of those of robots). #AutomaticNoodle #SciFi #BookSky #bookreview #BookSky 📚💙 youtu.be/d8guZD1cNqc?...

There was a millipede in my basement a month or so back. My kids had their friends over. The shrieking of 5 kids under 7 was eardrum shattering.

Under my careful tutelage (aka stopping myself from forcing her to read and just letting it happen naturally [though I did suggest books to her of her interest]), my eldest has become a kid who takes out 7 books at a time at the library and reads them in 3 days. 🥰 #booksky

I've wanted to write a book with this one choice = multiple outcomes idea for years, so it was a delight to read one that is so well-executed and also broaches an important topic with realism. youtu.be/8_nT1feT2cI #📚💙 #bookreview #TheNames #Booksky #booksky📚💙

I would argue that yes, rivers are alive, at least to the extent that we need stronger legislation to protect them! A beautifully written novel that is as compelling as it is important. #Booksky #BookSky📚💙 #bookreview #IstheRiverAlive #nonfiction youtu.be/x83W2dhS8KE

Why would a 50-yr-old man think it's okay to yell at a teenage girl coaching U5 soccer who calmly asked his kids from another team not to cut through a game in progress? I emailed the league letting them know if he emailed to complain about her, that he was the one in the wrong. What a jackass.

The only good thing about insomnia is that it gives me hours of unexpected extra reading time whenever it decides to descend upon me.

A book review that is 60% me going on and on about a theme of the book and not the book itself. Though, to be fair, I think the point of the book was just that - to make people think. #Audition #Booksky #bookreview youtu.be/RYYs6fALwlQ
