🎧📚 The Martian Contingency by Mary Robinette Kowal ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫 4.5/5 A softer book than the first three, it's not as much about the science of space flight or building on Mars but a character driven novel. Nice addition to the series. #sciencefiction #mars #martiancontingency #ladyastronaut #spaceopera

📚 The Girls of the Glimmer Factory, by Jennifer Coburn ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫 4.5/5 Step into the harrowing world of Hitler's Germany. Forget what you think you know from the title and description, and prepare to be immersed in a story of two young women on starkly different paths during the brutal years of 1941-44.

#Boarding an #outdoorcat? Our #cat is used to going outdoors for exercise, entertainment, & the facilities. We need to board him for 4 days. Would love insights! He was a stray who adopted us & while he's inside at night, some of the day & mealtime we don't know how he'll react to a kennel.

Question for humans who have #indooroutdoorcats: #GaryTheCat is in & out all morning (then naps all afternoon). I work from home so not a big deal. We're going away for long weekend. Cat sitter will stay, but she has FT job. Does she leave him out to cry at door or in to cry on other side of door?

📚 White Silence by Jodi Taylor ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5/5 What's real, what's imagined? What's true, what's a lie? And who can you trust? I've read all of Jodi Taylor's Chronicles of St Marys & Time Police series, but I only occassionally read thrillers. I was instantly enamored. Immensely readable!

Started this great book yesterday. I've enjoyed all of Jodi Taylor's Chronicles of St Mary's books. This is my first foray into her thrillers, and I'm enamored already. #scifi #thriller @www.joditaylorbooks.com

It's a complicated world (to put it mildly), so just remember... it's okay to escape into a book, a movie, or a game. We can't watch the news 24/7. Take care of your mental health. Read a book. #mentalhealthmatters #read #book #bookworm #escapism

Since Google Maps and Apple Maps have bowed to the new regime, if you are looking for an alternative, anyone remember Mapquest? It's still out there!

I have stained edge special editions of all 3 of Andy Weir's scifi novels, and they are beautiful, BUT I don't know how to display them. Spines out? Edges? Stacked? Mixed up? #AndyWeir #TheMartian #Artemis #ProjectHailMary #scifisunday

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Unboxing my latest blue box from @bookofthemonth.bsky.social club. Famous Last Words from Gillian McAllister. My assistant, Gary the Cat, came to supervise, of course! #catitude

Somehow I wound up with 4 physical books about Paris in my TBR pile. Which one should I read first? The Lost Girls of Paris The Little Paris Bookshop The Paris Orphan The Paris Architect Would love your advice! #bookstagram #paris #booksaboutparis #bookcollector #read #historicalfiction

This is one loooong cat. 🤣 At the beginning of COVID, I bought myself a nice big desk, which is a good thing now that we've been adopted by Gary the Cat. #caturday #amwriting #rescuecat #writersdesk

🎧📚 The Gone World, by Tom Sweterlitsch ⭐⭐⭐💫 3.5/5 This was a tough book. It had gruesome, vividly described murders and their gruesome crime scenes that should have had trigger warnings. Good time travel is hard to write and this one was confusing for me but the narrator was 5 stars! #audiobooks

Welcome #TikTokRefugees! Let's be friends. 😀

Make no mistake, taking the platform down half a day before the law required it is a stunt by Tik Tok. They are not down because the US government took them down. Everyone knew the US wasn't going to enforce that law without allowing the incoming administration to review it.

📚 The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, by Taylor Jenkins Reid ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5/5 I'm not sure why I put this one off for so long. It was so good! #historicalfiction #bookreview

This cat is semi useful. For instance, he is quite good at holding things down. Lego instructions, books, you know... things, that, as a cat, he has LOTS of use for. 🐈‍⬛ 🤣 #cat #caturday

Can't decide which front door side window to look through? Alternate! Oh, and don't forget to meow pitifully until one of your humans lets you out, regardless of the fact that you JUST came in AND it's cold and rainy. Happy #caturday.

Gary the Cat is still on his mission to sit on every horizontal surface of his adopted home (aka our house). Once he's tried out a new place to sit, he doesn't ever go back...except the chairs and the kitchen counter. Any tips on keeping him off that would be appreciated. Sincerely, New Pet Parent

I am an author. I am also a mom, a grandma, a partner, a pet parent, a skier, a traveler, and a marketer. I am not a firefighter, a lifeguard, physicist, or chef. Just because I know the basics of what those professions entail does not make me qualified.

My first Bluesky post. Back in November, we got adopted by a stray cat. He kept coming to our front porch, so we fed him, and he let us pet him. Long story short: he has no chip & no one claimed him, so now we are his, and he owns the house! Here's Gary! He's cute, lovable, and eats voraciously. 😹
