Readers familiar with The Three Musketeers will appreciate the nods to the source material in this epic battle for peace and justice. Romance and cinematic action come together to create a swashbuckling adventure in Lord of Blade and Bone by Erica Ivy Rodgers. #readersky

Daugther of the Underworld is an action-packed, if gory, duology starter. Think of this series as a darker successor to Percy Jackson. #booksky

Daily Card (even if Mameshiba is the only thing in focus!): The Chariot This ship isn't steering itself. Choose priorities, choose balance, keep going. #tarotsky

Daily Card: Justice Balance in all things. I won't say it's all for a reason but I will say the only way out is through. Keep moving forward. #tarotsky

The River Has Roots by Amal El-Mohtar The River Has Roots is poingnant and distinct, fitting perfectly alongside classic fairytales and modern sapphic fantasies. Full review on the blog. #readersky #booksky #librarysky

Good night: a photo series. #terriertuesday #dogsky #adoptdontshop

These are the books I’m hoping to read this month. I’m focusing on books I own but can also get in audio so I can listen on my commute and read at home or work on my kindle/in print. Which would you read first? #booksky #readersky

NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving. Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

AI has been infiltrating knitting and crochet spaces, filling them with useless patterns. Here's why that's happening and what can be done about it. www.plagiarismtoday.com/2025/11/24/t... #AI #Knitting #Crochet #FiberArt #Copyright

Have had some friends checking in and was reminded I never shared much update-wise after my mom came home in early October. Corrected that with a short update: gofund.me/f306ee5dc

Huda F Wants to Know? by Huda Fahmy is another sensational installment in one of my favorite series. Highly recommended. #booksky #readersky #librarysky #comicssky

Good night. #dogsky

If you need some delight in your evening, highly recommend checking out the responses here.

Daily Card: Seven of Swords Radical honesty! Transparency as a lifestyle! The only one you’re lying to yourself is you. #tarotsky

Good night. #dogsky

With genuine scares and increasingly tangible horror The Devouring Light by Kat Ellis is a bloody good time but definitely not for the faint of heart--read this one with the lights on. #booksky #readersky #librarysky

Daily Card: Two of Cups Balance in all things. Even this. #tarotsky

Daily Card: Queen of Coins I’m still feeling quite unwell and sorry for myself after being sick all week but basically still the same reading: you have to take care of yourself first. #tarotsky

Long Live Evil by @sarahreesbrennan.bsky.social is a deliciously fun fantasy and a stunning work of meta fiction. Come for the high level fantasy world building and characterization, stay for the feminist themes and humor that imbue both. Highly recommended. @orbitbooks.bsky.social #librarysky…

Views from a fun event @torbooks.bsky.social hosted at The Edition in Times Square to hear Veronica Roth talk about her upcoming book Seek the Traitor’s Son. #booksky #readersky @veronicarothbooks.com

Throwback to Halloween and this amazing spooky tea I went to with a friend at Anntremet (my favorite little tea shop/bakery). #teasky #halloweek #spookytea

Sweet romance and unfailing optimism make The Incredible Kindness of Paper by Evelyn Skye a joy to read and a powerful reminder that a little extra kindness rarely costs anything and almost always leaves a lasting mark. Highly recommended. #booksky #readersky #librarysky

Daily Card: Two of Swords What if I told you that the only thing holding you back was you? Don’t be afraid to chase those dreams. #tarotsky

Monstrous Nights by Genoveva Dimova is a gripping story in its own right and a deeply satisfying conclusion to a clever (and witchy) duology. Highly recommended. #booksky #librarysky #readersky @torbooks.bsky.social

Without arguing the power dynamics happening right now, I really want to just reemphasize this point. Do not let this get lost tonight/tomorrow in the inevitable media coverage to follow. It is the fault of the GOP.

Daily Cards: Eight of Wands and The Hierophant These two seem to be saying opposite things (go go go vs meditate on the matter). Taken together: you already know the answer you seek. #tarotsky

Plaid nails for days. #nailart #manicures #nailpolishsky

A moment for the plaid Halloweek nails. #nailsky #manicuresky

Really useful thread if you’re able to donate and looking to maximize what you can give.

Daily Card: The Hermit Sometimes rest is radical. Sometimes walking away is the greatest victory. #tarotsky

A Steeping of Blood by Hafsah Faizal: A Review #booksky #readersky #librarysky

Election night edition of #TerrierTuesday We are watching live election results as the AP calls the election for Mamdani. No more need for anxious faces!

Daily Card(s): Nine of Swords and Seven of Coins (I always draw a second card after the nine because it's a drag) It’s been a hard season but you choose what happens next. Focus on what you can control even if it’s only the energy you put into the world. #tarotsky

Daily Card: The Lovers Tend to your relationships. Be open to let new people into your life. #tarotsky

A Tempest of Tea by Hafsah Faizal is an engaging heist story centering characters familiar with having to fight for their place at the proverbial table. Full review on the blog. #booksky #readersky #librarysky

That’s a wrap on Halloweek. Thanks for going on this journey with me. You can check the thread for all of my costumes: Snow White, Vampire Victim, Wednesday Addams, Torstoishell Cat, and a bag of bones (skeleton earrings and a skull print top). #costumesky #librarysky #halloweek #halloween

Daily Card: Eight of Wands Now is a time for decisive action. Trust yourself. You know what to do. #tarotsky

Warrior Girl Unearthed by Angeline Boulley: A Review #booksky #librarysky

Daily Card: The Emperor Maybe this thing was a masterpiece until you tore it all up. Or maybe it had to be torn down to build something even better. #tarotsky

Daily Card: Ten of Swords It’s going to get better. I swear it’s going to get better. You may not see it yet but remember all change is incremental. Stay the course. #tarotsky

Daily Card: Two of Couns Treat your energy like it's a rare commodity. Choose where you spend it wisely. (I didn't do this today and I have regrets. Learn from me.) #tarotsky

I’m dressing up for every day of Halloweek. Here’s Monday’s outfit. Not shown: black sweater because library has no heat. #halloweek #librarysky #fashionsky #spookysky
