I forgot about this app for a hot second. Currently reading The Blood Orchid by Kylie Lee Baker.
Iโm devouring these duologies. Just started, but I loved The Scarlet Alchemist so Iโm really looking forward to this one.

Okay I need more books with older main characters and I felt like this story was so beautiful. I really am enjoying the dual timeline POV.

Yeah Iโm going to change to another platform entirely. I am so sick of this AI bullshit. Probably moving to booktube or Substack at this point because Iโm tired of trying to walk on egg shells.

Instagram is out to end me I swear. Suspended my original account for no reason. Created a new account and just gave up trying to recover said account.
I regained access to OG account (yay) and then about five minutes before that they disabled my new acct (boo) for no reason.
Welp just had to email all of the companies I work with to let me know that IG has deleted my account. Iโm so gutted. Itโs so insane that it can be gone in seconds all because of some bullshit AI. 2+ years of hard work and building relationships just fucking gone in an instant.
Iโm looking for alternative to bookstagram. I prefer the written format, does anyone have any suggestions? Maybe just post them on here?

It was so good! Itโs a duology and such a quick read. I hope you enjoy it!

This the most magical Black History Month in my life
thank you to Kendrick and the Eagles for making terrible people angry tonight
I wonder if Iโll actually get more reading done now that I donโt have an IG anymore. Canโt believe I only read four books so far this month. Time to kick it into high gear the rest of the month.
I LOVE BLACK PEOPLE โ๐ฝโ๐พโ๐ฟโ๐ฝ

I saw some others on here post their February reads so I think Iโll try it out too. Here are the books Iโve read in February.
So Meta suspended my Bookstagram for actually no reason. So thereโs that. It sucks because I spent 2 years on the account and itโs all gone. Man. I feel so upset and I know itโs just socials but oof so much time and energy gone just like that.
Iโm loving it so far! Only about 1/3rd of the way through. Have you already finished it?
Hi everyone! Itโs been a while. Just finished a great dystopian sci-fi today, The Jade Rebellion. Review to come soon. What are you reading? Iโm about to start A Drop of Corruption by Robert Jackson Bennett. #๐๐ #booksky

In true mood reader fashion, I paused reading In the Lives of Puppets for Dating & Dragons. I really love YA and I love both of these books so much. Truly the book gods have smiled upon me with the great books to start the year. #booksky #๐๐
2025 means no number reading goals for me other than completing 10 book series Iโve previously started.
Trying to have more fun and less rigidity. Iโm also working through my physical tbr and NetGalley. Iโm on StoryGraph and I love it so much more than GR. ๐๐ฝ #blackbooksky #booksky
If nothing else good happens to me in 2025, Iโm thankful to be dating an emotional intelligent, foiiiine, black man. The fact heโs 6โ7 doesnโt hurt either. I have never felt more myself with someone. I love a calming energy. ๐ #blacksky
Hereโs all the books to date I have read so far in 2024. (Photo from Bookshelf app). I didnโt track my minutes properly this year but other than that what a great reading year so far and still so much time left. ๐
Started Harrow the Ninth tonight itโs very different in terms of vibes but Iโm so intrigued! Tamsyn Muir can do no wrong. That being said, where is our release date for Alecto???

โThe books... they have me.โ

I have recently finished Iron Widow by @xiranjayzhao.bsky.social and holy fuck dude. Now I knew it was a favorite of some but I did not want that it end. I am so happy I read it so close to the release of Heavenly Tyrant (comes out 12/24). I need to post a review, itโs amazing. 10/5
