I'm gonna pretend its still Sunday (don't we all wish that) because my current read is so neat! The Binding Spell by Marisa Linton ❀️ Moths and Welsh folklore πŸ˜„ So excited to be reading more Welsh folklore/mythology retellings and tales from those who care about the topic - too rare in books!!!

Cover for The Bletchley Riddle. On the top reads Remember, you are bound by the official secrets act... The title is across the width of the cover slanted slightly on most of the top half. Above it in the 2 top corners are silhouettes of planes. On the bottom half, centered is a silhouette of a motorbike with someone riding it, scarf blowing out behind them. A street with houses lining is is where the motorbike is. The sky behind is red in the middle with a glow fading out to a dark blue on the sides.

My review of The Bletchley Riddle by Rita Sepetys/Steve Sheinkin
5/5⭐

Curious if kids understand the maths & enigma but very thrilling & great characters & history!

I see a lot of people on here are currently succumbing to β€œa weird, long-lasting flu-like cold” so it’s probably worth a reminder that COVID has not been eradicated. If you don’t want to help spread a new strain please mask up when out in public.

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II.

She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet.

Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.

Fundraiser for librarian Luanne James, who stood up to her rightwing library board that demanded she remove kids books with any trace of LBGTQ+ characters or content.

"I will not comply."

They sacked her and cops escorted her out.

She's a hero. This banned author just donated.

Cover for the book The adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty. Depicts a ship on the sea, with a giant, red, octopus' many tentacles wrapped around the ship. Dark blue water with the octopus' head below the surface takes up the bottom half of the cover. The top half has a bright yellow sky with light blue swirls around.

I think multi-book deals don't mention each individual book? I think I've only seen 1 of Chuck Tingle's horror books mentioned on there for example.

A screenshot of bookshop.org showing a cut-off description of a book


Description
The Hunger Games meets The Sunbearer Trials in bestselling and award-winning author Sonido Reyes's YA dystopia about a boy who survives by hiding his truth until his boyfriend is sentenced to El Torneo - a brutal, fight-to-the-death game - where he must risk everything to save him.
Centuries after the conquistadors claimed the Afueras for their own, Temo spends his life obeying the Holy Order's decree, undergoing their sacraments to tame his supposedly violent nature. The only rule he breaks: hiding that he's trans. If that fact is discovered, Temo will face El Torneo, a brutal, fight-to-the-death game pitting the untamed against one

A black, pink, and grey cover. The title is YOU’RE NO BETTER by Andrew Joseph White, written in scratchy text. The background is a shattered mirror with grey images - a man on the phone, a man drinking, an injured young woman - as a feminine trans boy in a school uniform kneels and looks at his bloody hands. There are crime scene photos on the floor at his feet.

Cover of She Gets the Girl. Block purple background with 2 hands coming down from the top, backs facing each other. One hand is a lighter tone, the other a little darker. Both hands have a wide variety of small flowers and leaves wrapped around them in different directions, largely red coloured. The lighter skin hand has red nails, the darker skin hand has nude coloured nails. Below the hands is the subtitle, "Sometimes love needs a helping hand" in a light purple, below that is the title of the book in yellow. Along the bottom of the cover is the names of both the authors.

Cover for the book Deephaven. Title is across the middle-top curved upwards in the middle in block capitals, orange-yellow colour. Behind it spanning the whole cover is what looks like the front of a mansion, above it looming over the roof is some kind of black monster with long strands of hair and piercing blue eyes. Most of the cover is taken up by a shot looking through a doorway at a person stood in a spotlight, holding a lit candle. They've got short black hair, a long orange-brown coat, white button up shirt, black trousers and black shoes. Their stance is like they're looking around hesitantly. The sky is a green-ish colour behind the monster and there's whispers of fog around the bottom corners.
