1/3 - YES to WLW reading, drowned in tax work and only saw Animal Crossing over the shoulders of friends, and actively cried on every hike I was invited too. Friends had to convince me there would be people there that would let me pet their dogs...
Um, what?!

Cover of the book "The Traitor Baru Cormorant (The Masquerade, 1)" Shows a face mask cracking a part and flying astray. FYI, this book is cruel in the best way.
The Traitor Baru Cormorant! Beautifully written, cruelly queer, and every time I read it, I'm filled with envy. I feel a bit smarter when I'm reading it. And just a bit angrier (in a good way). I can't recommend it enough.
You know you need it.
Take a minute.

Thank you for letting us know! You have my support!
Here’s a common scam going around that you should know about: Sometimes cats will meow at you like they haven’t been fed, but in fact someone DID feed them, and they’re just trying to get fed again- stay alert! 🚨
Downloaded and can't wait~
Honestly, so much worst. Many a night spent crying over this terrible truth.
I look forward to it!
I loved these books and I still reread them! You have a gift for heartbreak that's so unique, it should have its own category. I feel like it's enemies to lovers done so well. Anyone in doubt, read these books!
Reading! It's restful, yet an adventure
Def one of those alumni. I was thirty when I found my first one in the wild! It feels wild to even see this~
Totally agreed. Trying the description would not work! Even for reader-friendly apps.
So this has to do with marketing principles. Viral reach ≠ conversions. It needs to pair engaging visuals with a clear connection to your product + call to action. aka 'Devour of Worlds by Jane Smith, get the book now!'. Closer you get the message to the image, the higher your conversion should be.
I'm very grateful!
I'm hurting so bad-good from reading it. 🤣We need to spread this!
The Dragonfly Gambit by A.D. Sui The cover is of a lady mechanic posed to destroy some shit. This book is brilliant, short, and murderous. Here's the summary: Nearly ten years after Inez Kato sustained a career-ending injury during a military exercise gone awry, she lies, cheats, and seduces her way to the very top, to destroy the fleet that she was once a part of, even at the cost of her own life. Ennis Rezál, Third Daughter of the Rule, has six months left to live. She is desperate to end the twenty-year war she was birthed to fight. But when she brings Inez aboard the mothership, a chess game of manipulation and double-crossing begins to unfold, and the Rule doesn’t stand a chance.
I mean this in the kindest way, but the author @thesuiway.bsky.social is a blessed terror on my psyche. Want enemies-to-lovers? Want your brain utterly rocked? The Dragonfly Gambit what you need to read ASAP. Thank you @andreareads.bsky.social for recommending it!
How? HOW?! (wildly scrambling for Christmas) 😂
Imagine a map illustrating an old-timey lamp (1910s old-timey), with an open book on the desk. Cozy. Exciting. 'Are you ready for an adventure' vibe.

Writers, who is your ideal reader? What is your story?
For Love and Daughter of the Hurricane:
#WritingCommunity #Sapphic
Yes! Thank you! Also, the fight against autocorrect lives on 🤣
Honestly, AMAZING! Thank you for making and sharing about it. I grew up without ever knowing what "sapphic" or "lesbian" (the variant I turned out to be) even was, much less that there was anything in the world about it, and this!! THIS!! Very nice~
Also forgot to add #sapphicbooks!
A drawing of girl's hand with an etched outline of a small white snake looping adorable through her fingers, overlayed with gold for #asthetics. I'm a better writer than artist, and I'm guessing you have a better imagination than my art, so please imagine it drawn prettily. The name of the book is Love and the Daughter of the Hurricane, by RR Turock. It's sapphic, it's adventure, and it's 1910s alt history.
#writers, describe your book's plot poorly:
When a girl's snake mother is hurt, she has to sail beside enemies to visit her extended family to fix things. And the girl she into is not thrilled at all.
#writingcommunity
I don't know if it will have any interaction, but one of things I really enjoyed on the site-unnamed was the #writingcommunity posts. I love reading about everyone's stories and I usually buy books based on them. So, I might re-post some interesting prompts I'd like to see over this side.
Congratulations! You should be very proud!
Honestly the best energy in this shop. So chill from everyone, raccoon included.
Always me.
]= Kind grandmothers. Those nice, sweet granny old lady types. I just can't do it. They seem fake when I try, like I've never met a nice, harmless elderly woman before. They're always mean. And maybe a little evil.
Weirdly accurate
