I'll be honest...I do love a good tea spill 🫖🔍📖 #booksky 📚💙 #verawong'sunsolictedadviceformurderers

Why read books? Because books are still the most powerful, reliable, transportive & magical storytelling technology we've invented - and all they need to work is YOUR OWN IMAGINATION! #booksky (Cartoon by @mariascrivan.bsky.social)

I really do love a good cardigan. #booksky 📚💙

"I read something about medicine once. It Goes like this: "Medicine no less than religion is a matter of the spirit, of the figurative heart of the soul. True medicine embraces the belief that each and every one of us is important, and we are under the canopy of heaven alike."" - Chris Stevens

Living in the US right now means that sometimes it all gets too much and I need a safe place to go when it becomes too overwhelming for me. Books are my safe place. #booksky #reader #unprecedentedtimes

My current book obsession... drawn to the vintage photo on the cover, I've been smitten by this intriguing WWll historical fiction novel. It has relatable characters, a bit of a mystery, a touch of romance, wit, and a beautiful setting. 💙📚 #booksky

Clever, moving and full of hope, this is a story I think everyone can learn from. An absolute must-read. More below! #BookSky bookaholicbex.wordpress.com/2025/05/25/l...

Good morning! Be the Resistance.❤️‍🔥 #BookSky #WritingCommunity #Resistance

Just a friendly reminder that you can relax and read at whatever pace you want. It’s not a race. It’s not a competition. It SHOULDN’T be content fodder. This is supposed to be fun, y’all. #booksky #reading #tbr

Celebrate the power of female friendship, personal reinvention, and the healing power of Books. 💙📚 #booksky #theworldneedsmoretroublesomewomen

“Your beliefs will be the light by which you see, but they will not be what you see and they will not be a substitute for seeing.” —Flannery O’Connor #quotes #writers #booksky

So many books, so little time as Frank Zappa apparently said. 💙📚#booksky

...the wonderful and vast world of books! 📚💙 #booksky

Books are teachers. Books are resistance. Books are time machines. Books are liberation. Read more books. 💙📚#booksky

Resist the regime. Reading books is resistance. Buying books is resistance. Sharing books is resistance. Celebrating books is resistance. Resist this regime.

"You can’t beg the world to do what you want. You can’t ask it nicely. You must force the world. You must bend it to your will." #booksky📚💙 #libraryread

Borrow, barter, or steal a bicycle!!!...it's time to bring back the Edwardian, militant Women's Social and Political Union (Suffragettes) skills to defeat and outwit larger opponents by using SUFFRAJITSU! ....just in time for WHM in March. 🚲🥋🗡♀️ #suffrajitsu #womenonbicyles #womenshistorymonth2025

For most of history, people didn’t read books, they listened to them. Audiobooks are not a shortcut, they’re a return to our roots. 📖 #BookSky

Are we becoming numb to the endless outrages? Struggling against normalizing noxious, vicious government policies. Soul is torn a little more each day. Heart fractures, mind aches. #Booksky #TheTrumpYears #poetry

The desperate and understandable human desire for normalcy is absolutely screwing our nation right now. Denial and minimizing are marching us right past the line of no return.

Current read 🐲🐉♀️🔥 #booksky📚

I've been seeing a lot of posts about readers trying to curb their own book buying. Let me remind you of the library. Libraries can use your support now more than ever. When you checkout library books this lets funding authorities know the library is worthy of taxpayer money. 1/3 #booksky 💙 📚

TikTok took it down, so let’s share the shit out of this reading list. #HolocaustRemembranceDay #NeverAgainIsNow #BookSky #StateMediaCensorship

One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them. Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is. Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙

Reading is political. Reading has always been political. Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground. #booksky

“Live. Hold out. Survive. I don’t know whether good times are coming back again. But I know that won’t matter if we don’t survive these times.” Octavia Butler (Parable of the Sower) #booksky #artisforliving #scifi #writing

God bless Malcolm Nance, and this is what we need. I really believe it. The Resistance has to come alive and here’s a plan. FAFO. Please share widely participate.

You may know about Project Gutenberg, which is an online repository of older, public domain works where copyright has expired. Its offshoot, Project Gutenberg Self-Publishing, lets authors upload their own modern works while retaining all rights. 💙📚

Shocker. Another forgotten female in the history of filmmaking. Joan Harrison--first woman to be nominated for an Oscar for screenwriting (Rebecca), first woman to be a producer at a major studio. Looking forward to learning more about her. #booksky💙📚

A book about a team of librarians who traveled to Europe during WWII to help gather intelligence for the Allies?! I can’t wait to learn more about these fascinating people! 😍📚

There are currently only 22 films streaming on Netflix made before 1980 and not a single one made before 1960, with the oldest film on the platform currently being PSYCHO. I know I’m a broken record but: buy physical media, support your local library, etc etc

Every single one of your favorite artists started out as a wannabe. They all worshiped other artists; were all told it would never happen for them. They all had an inner voice telling them they weren't good enough. But they had the stones to tell all those voices to go screw and made art anyway.

Happy hump day, BlueSky.
