If you’re into urban fantasy, you need to read this series. @junodawson.bsky.social is a masterful writer that knows how to tell a good story and leave you wanting more. They say that messages in books need to be subtle so not to ruin the story, they apparently never read her books. 5/5 ⭐️

How am I obsessed about the dystopian future of the planet but ALSO Googling which foods can help me live longer?
I created a starter pack for LGBTQIA+ advocacy orgs in the nonprofit sector.
I couldn’t find one so I made one.
