Looking for book recs that touch on (at least partially) the theme of coming into your own gender identity after experiencing sexual trauma? Hoping for fiction / fantasy / horror but open to any and all genres. #bookrecs #queerbooks #LGBTBooks #Fiction
anyone have any book recs for someone who studied 19th century/pre-revolutionary/revolutionary eastern european literature for too many years and read a scanner darkly and was like "this is beautiful art"?
please make me sad. depress me. shatter my conception of the world. make me feel.
Had such a good time at the Sacramento Book Festival yesterday! :] Thank you to everyone who stopped by and all the wonderful people who organized the event. As always it was great to table with Tasneem Alam. We make a great event team 🖤

Premade cover with the placeholder title of "Coffee for your Thoughts" and "Author name" at the bottom. It shows a woman with olive skin, dark eyes and dark curly hair tied in a ponytail, dressed in a yellow apron and black shirt and pants, smiling and handing a cup of coffee to a white woman with long red hair and brown eyes, wearing a blue dress with a pink flower pattern at the hem. The white woman is by a table at the supposed coffee shop, the balcony and coffee machine are in the backgroun in green.
So here's my first premade cover! I'm selling it over on vgen! For $99 (or you can pay +$50 to turn this into a print cover), this baby is yours! I can fully customize all colors as well ^^

Does anyone have any good monster/cryptid/folklore visual encyclopedia book recommendations? All the ones I've been finding are clearly AI.
I just want a monster on one page and on the opposite page is a bunch of info about the monster.
Anything like that?
So like… you could totally request my books at your local library. That’d be cool.
Does anyone have any good horror book recommendations that possibly have audiobook versions too 🤓 Don't say House of Leaves I'm too scared of that one right now
Happy reading!

Speaker 1: FS is perfect for the 'mantasy' trend! MC is a badass ultra-powerful sorcerer-man who broods?! Confetti-celebration emoji. Speaker 2: The clothes-horse. Yeah. Doesn't he like instantly adopt a kid? Speaker 1: Who is a BOY a/k/a a future MAN! Plus Ephrem! Famous scholar, eh? Speaker 2: He's the one with the gay romance, right? Speaker 1: red angry face emoji Speaker 2: Haven't you said the real villain in this story is toxic masculinity? Speaker 1: 'Masculinity!' Speaker 2: There are multiple powerful POV women Speaker 1: MANTASY Speaker 2: ... (to be clear, it's just an ellipsis, indicating that this person is giving up). At the very bottom of the image is a text bar, empty, with the standard photo/ voice/ video/ and plus icons common to a smartphone.
