I’m really looking forward to discussing this phenomenal book at tonight’s book club @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social. If you’re in the Wilmington area, come join us! (If you’re somewhere else, you should still get the book!) #booksky

@wiswell.bsky.social’s third triumphant novel is out tomorrow! If you’re as big a fan as I am of this Nebula Award-winning author, you can join us in-person Thursday at 6 @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social! I’ll be moderating the Q&A, & I’m excited to hear what other fans want to know! #booksky

I honestly don’t know how to describe this book, except to say it’s a weird (but successful) blend of thriller, sci-fi, & fantasy. That can’t be easy, but Kracht makes it appear so. Do yourself a favor & join these heroes on their otherworldly journey. Out 7-14. #booksky @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social

A poem about reading “White Noise” poolside is low key brilliance. This is from @adamg.bsky.social’s collection, “Every Living Day.” Two 👍🏻s up, highly recommend. #booksky #poetry

As I continue my way through the Women’s Prize for Fiction, I just discovered the genius of Kingsolver. This is “Forrest Gump” as written by John Steinbeck. Mesmerizing and addictive, books like this are the reason why I do these reading challenges. #booksky

@naominovik.bsky.social’s lovely & charming gem of a novel is out tomorrow in paperback! With a strong female lead and a gay love story you’ll be rooting for, it’s a must read. #booksky

Put this up this morning with “Yeah, probably.” Ended up buying two books and two plays. I blame @bertsbooks.bsky.social 😂

An incredible, gut punch of a novel, and next month’s book club read @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social. I’m serious: it’ll knock your socks off. Read it. #booksky

Congratulations to last night's winners at the Nebula Awards, which include @stephengrahamjones.com, @amalelmohtar.com, @effies.bsky.social, @thomasha.bsky.social among others, and which formally installed @nkjemisin.bsky.social as a Grand Master! file770.com/sfwa-announc...

Congratulations to @stephengrahamjones.com for winning the 2026 Nebula Award for Best Novel!

Visiting Rhinelander, Wisconsin, and discovered this adorable used bookstore! The second pic is my great-aunt 💛 (Buying books with an elder really felt good!) #booksky

@joe-hill.bsky.social Horror and comedy! Double threat! 😂 #booksky

The disappearance of a teen compatriot is the foundation of this exquisite coming-of-age novel. 198 powerful pages encapsulate the specific moment that childhood is forcibly left behind, when “regret” becomes a lived experience. Besson is this generation’s most powerful queer storyteller. #booksky

Our last Nebula nom is @nnedi.bsky.social’s paradigm-shifting novel. “Meta” in the best sense & giving representation to those who are most often left out of sci-fi, all w/ a twist ending. This might just be the frontrunner this year. Plus, the 1st time since “Wall-E” that I’ve liked A.I. #booksky

Congratulations to this year’s winners of the International Booker Prize! #booksky 🇹🇼 🇹🇼 🇹🇼

Found this at a local antique store yesterday, and I can’t wait to dive in! (Pun intended.) (Too soon?) #booksky #titanic

Our 6th Nebula-nominated read is a surreal novel by @darylwriterguy.bsky.social. Examining our relationship w/ tech & the absurdities it causes our lives, it also questions the very nature of our reality. (What if God is just a computer programmer?) Definitely a contender for the award! #booksky

#booksky @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social @captainbluehen.bsky.social

Our 5th Nebula nominee is a brilliant allegorical takedown of doctoral programs, but is also, I’m afraid, overly long, w/ an unsympathetic protagonist. It is undeniably worthy of the Nebula—again, it’s a brilliant piece of lit.—but it is not a book I’d recommend to anyone. #booksky

I love this 😍 #booksky

😂😂😂 Genuinely *barked* with laughter when I saw this. Loved this woman so much! #booksky

Nebula nominee @emilytesh.net has reinvented the magical school motif to focus on the teacher & the importance of education. As a teacher myself, I was blown away 🎆 🎇 by this incredible story. Original & fun—a truly worthy contender for the award! A+ #booksky

It’s #freecomicbookday! Like so many other kids, comics were the launching pad 🚀 for my lifelong love of reading. (& the majority of comic book stores in the U.S. are small businesses!) I’m headed to @captainbluehen.bsky.social today—you should check out the events at your nearest store!

My 3rd Nebula review is @nassos.bsky.social’s dark debut novel. A retelling of the story of Bluebeard, this is a labyrinthine, complicated work. Its difficulty, no doubt, is intentional, meant to mirror the vagaries of trauma & abuse. Powerful & complex, but not for the faint of heart. #booksky

2nd Nebula-nominee review is the most challenging book I’ve read so far this year, but worth the effort. @stephengrahamjones.com’s latest is a haunting allegory for the vampirism that was European colonialism. One of the most unique books I’ve ever read & a solid contender for the award! #booksky

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! 🥳 Sending love to three particular stores that have made my life better for having been a part of it: @captainbluehen.bsky.social @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social & @squarebooks.bsky.social #booksky 🎆 🎇 🎆 🎇 🎆 🎇

First up for this year’s Nebula nominees is the incomparable @wiswell.bsky.social. “Wearing the Lion” could make him the first author to win back-to-back Nebulas since Orson Scott Card won in 85/86. Plus, he’ll be @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social July 16th! #booksky

A towering literary presence for an entire landmass. “Remembering Babylon” was a profound read. Rest In Peace. #booksky

Well, I have my next reading challenge! Please, follow along for my thoughts on this year’s Nebula nominees! The winner will be announced June 6th! 👽 🧙🏻‍♀️ #booksky @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social

Just finished @praddenkeefe.bsky.social’s most recent book, & it is incredible. Investigative journalism at its best, a moving eulogy to a deceased teen, & a searing exposé of how one of the world’s greatest (& my personal fave) cities lost its nobility. #booksky

…and I approve this message. #booksky

Today’s the day! Fans of @aptshadow.bsky.social, join us online for what is sure to be an amazing discussion of this incredible new book! Go to @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social and/or @captainbluehen.bsky.social for log-in info!!! #booksky

The pics coming in from Artemis II have me thinking of rereading this old favorite of mine. #NASA is out here (out there!) reigniting our passion & expanding our imaginations, & I’m just filled with joy. #booksky

Somewhere, someone has Upset the wrong butterfly, Wings flapped in anger. #BraveWrite #butterfly #haiku #senryu #poem #writing #writingcommunity @bravewrite.bsky.social

Disclaimer: I haven’t read this book (yet), but if, like me, you’re a fan of @praddenkeefe.bsky.social, I wanted you to know @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social has signed copies! Again, I have not read it yet, but… SIGNED!!! Wanted y’all to know. 🤗 #booksky

5 April 1974, Stephen King's 1st novel 'Carrie' was published. It demonstrated the devastating psychological effects of peer cruelty & at 200 pages, it was 1 of his shortest books. King famously threw the 1st few pages in the trash; his wife, Tabitha, rescued them & urged him to finish. #StephenKing

You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. Happy Birthday to Dr Maya Angelou (born April 4, 1928)

“Jane Eyre?” Really? (I always preferred the “anti-‘Jane Eyre,’” ‘Wide Sargasso Sea.’) Thoughts folks? #booksky @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social

If you’re as thrilled about #ArtemisII as I am & need a good sci-fi book to read while they’re up there, try this thrilling novel of space (and self) exploration! (Ignore this post if you have arachnophobia 😬) Seriously, #NASA makes our sci-fi dreams a reality. They rock! #booksky

What a powerhouse of a book. Think “Tuck Everlasting,” w/ the existential pain & fear that must inevitably come w/ immortality. Brilliantly written, rich in genuine feelings of anguish & pain, w/ an ending that will shock you. @caseyscieszka.bsky.social has written a masterpiece. #booksky

❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙 #booksky

Wait 👏🏻 one 👏🏻 minute 👏🏻 please. This book was based off real people/events?!?! How did I miss that? 🤔 #booksky @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social

@daisychainbookco.bsky.social is killing it with their comedy 🤭 But, also: truth. #booksky

#booksky 🤩🤩🤩

It’s rare to find a movie that not only respects the source material, but elevates it. Books are life, but this movie gives visuals so gorgeous, it will leave you aching. Read it, watch it, & feel the joy from both. (& a Ken in space!) #booksky @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social @captainbluehen.bsky.social

Swing by @huxleyandhiro.bsky.social at 6:30 for book club! An amazing novel about motherhood and loss, no wonder they made an award-winning film about it! Plus: Delaware Shakespeare is in the house! 🎭
