Wyrd and Wonder 2025: Setting Sail: It's time for the Wyrd and Wonder event, celebrating fantasy stories in May each year. Here I have a few thoughts on what I might read for it! breathesbooks.com/2025/05/02/w... #WyrdAndWonder25 #booksky

An excellent opening line gets us hook, line and sinker 😉

My first #WyrdAndWonder read is The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro. I've been eyeing this one for way too long. #WyrdAndWonder25 #booksky @wyrdandwonder.bsky.social

What are you reading for #WyrdAndWonder25?

What a fabulously nautical stack - if you’re looking for inspiration for #WyrdAndWonder, you’d do well to start here!

This month all of my featured Books From The Backlog will be fantasy in honor of #WyrdAndWonder. This week is King's Dragon (Crown of Stars #1) by Kate Elliott. Have you read it or would you recommend it to me? never-anyone-else.blogspot.com/2025/05/wyrd... @wyrdandwonder.bsky.social #booksky

It’s May! We’re setting sail for #WyrdAndWonder25 on a month-long voyage through the seas and shores of fantasy as we share our love for a favourite genre. This year will have a distinctly nautical flavour - will you sail with us? onemore.org/2025/05/01/a...

We’ve officially set sail! Welcome to a month of #WyrdAndWonder when we enthuse about our love of all things fantastical (and this year, especially stories set at, by or under sea)

It’s the last day of April and you know what that means? We set sail for a month of #WyrdAndWonder tomorrow!

Counting down to Wyrd & Wonder - it’s just 10 days until we set sail for a month of fantastical adventures, guided by our whims, our friends and our annual prompt challenge. Will you join us? onemore.org/2025/04/21/p...

Well now doesn't that sound perfect for @wyrdandwonder.bsky.social nautical fantasy theme this May!

Well what’s this? Yesss it’s the hype building for this year’s #WyrdAndWonder!

It’s the start of a new week - time to ding the ship’s bell as #WyrdAndWonder25 is officially seaborne this May to celebrate fantasy in all its forms (but especially stories dripping with maritime atmosphere). Will you sail with us this year?

Spring is here and it’s time to plan another year of fantastical adventures! #WyrdAndWonder25 has a nautical flavour (altho all fantasy is welcome as always) and we’re hatching some plans to tempt you out onto the high seas with us thequaintbooknook.wordpress.com/2025/03/02/a...

It has been a joy sharing #SpooktasticReads with you. Now we will fade in the pale winter sunlight, and sleep until spring when the dragons waken for #WyrdAndWonder

#SpooktasticReads 30 writing on the wall - NOT QUITE A GHOST by @anneursu.bsky.social (not quite writing on the wall but a spooky wall nonetheless) 31 Day of the Dead - A DASH OF TROUBLE (Love, Sugar, Magic #1) by @annameriano.bsky.social Happy Halloween! 👻🎃🦇 #MGLit 📚👍🏼

🧛🧛‍♀️🧛‍♂️💖

#SpooktasticReads 29 Underworld GROUNDED FOR ALL ETERNITY by @darcymarks.bsky.social (TBR) - a group of kids from hell come to Earth on one of the craziest nights of the year: Halloween 😈 #MGLit

#SpooktasticReads 27 Dark Omens The MC in @karenmusings.bsky.social’s EDEN’S EVERDARK is haunted by the creepy imagery she finds in her mother’s old sketchbook #MGLit 📚👍🏻

#SpooktasticReads speedrunning the last three prompts: 24 Haunted house - THE CREEPENING OF DOGWOOD HOUSE by edenroyce.bsky.social (TBR) 25 Occult - THE CURSED MOON by Angela Cervantes (TBR) 26 (Un)seelie court - THE GREEN CHILDREN OF WOOLPIT by jandersoncoats.bsky.social #MGLit 💙📚👍🏼🌎

It’s a backlist highlight - @pages-n-pro.bsky.social went hunting along the shelves for some #SpooktasticReads and found Brandon Massey’s debut horror Thunderland pagesandprocrastination.wordpress.com/2024/10/25/s...

Sam K Horton's wild, atmospheric debut of Cornish magic and parallel worlds is a dark, immersive delight. In which I enthuse about Gorse #SpooktasticReads onemore.org/2024/10/25/g...

Look, I've actually read and reviewed something from my #SpooktasticReads TBR! Lucy Undying by Kiersten White [ad/gifted] www.curiositykilledthebookworm.net/2024/10/lucy...

#SpooktasticReads 23 - Hocus pocus @alechiadow.bsky.social's JUST A PINCH OF MAGIC is my most recent read that comes to mind when I think of hocus pocus. Featuring a cozy bakery alongside a dark family curse, this is another great read for fall. #MGLit

I've finished my first #audiobook for #SpooktasticReads and I am filled with mixed emotions because of how it ended. It was such a good story and I'm grateful for the listen but it was a heavier read than I realised. The narrator was absolute brilliant, too! "A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking"🙌

How do you keep the dead from rising? Become the town undertakers and make sure they stay dead, dammit. Today's pick for #SpooktasticReads is Bless Your Heart by Lindy Ryan, a grisly matriarchal monster hunting charmer onemore.org/2024/10/23/b...

#SpooktasticReads 22 - Pumpkin My favourite pumpkin book is picture book TOO MANY PUMPKINS but shout out to recently released cozy autumnal #MGLit, THE PUMPKIN PRINCESS AND THE FOREVER NIGHT from debut author Steven Banbury

#SpooktasticReads 21 - Pure Evil I thought I'd highlight #MGLit titles for Spooktastic Reads this year however! this prompt stumped me a moment because how often do you encounter pure evil in MG? but IIRC the titular antagonist of THE NIGHT GARDENER by Jonathan Auxier was quite nasty...

This was one of my #SpooktasticReads 2 years ago. Come for the haunted forest, stay to get eaten by it. What forest? There is no forest. It’s just a myth with monsters in it. Or maybe you’re the monster. …or…both? All of it? Oh, shit. Run. Run.

OOF damn @premeemohamed.com's THE BUTCHER OF THE FOREST is one gut punch of a fairy tale, which makes it feel deeply true to the spirit of fairy tales - that realer than real visceral understanding that just because there are rules doesn't mean the game is fair

This seems relevant to your interests. Who, me? Yes, us too.

100% perfect spooky fantasies 💖 if you’re looking for #SpooktasticReads I stand by this rec every year 🪽🔥👻🗡️💖🐉

A #SpooktasticReads #mustlisten list - I'm doubling down on #amlistening to #audiobooks for our lovely readathon! Loads of WitchyReads and other Cosy Fantasy stories will be enjoyed as I chase after Halloween! What do you love to read or listen to this time of year? Are you a seasonal reader?👻🧙‍♀️

Catching up on #SpooktasticReads prompts: Spooktastic TBR: BLACK SHEEP by @rachelharrison.bsky.social Urban legend: Highly recommend #MGLit HIDE AND SEEKER by Daka Hermon, which offers a terrifying take on the classic childhood game. My thoughts: fallingletters.ca/20...#SpooktasticReads#MGLit #Horror #SpecFic 📚💙

Join in the fun with #SpooktasticReads or #SpooktasticReads2024

On the eve of #SpooktasticReads👻 I'm happily enthralled with where I am inside @tkingfisher.com's A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking - 📖🎧this #audiobook is narrated by Patricia Santomasso who wickedly illuminates the words by Kingfisher. Her words and turns of phrase are simply wicked brilliant! 👏

Happy Sunday Womble! I’m just settling into The Gilda Stories by Jewelle Gomez as my first book for #SpooktasticReads2024

Gonna try and read a few spookyish books for #SpooktasticReads 💙📚 www.curiositykilledthebookworm.net/2024/10/spoo...
