Huzzah! 📚💙

Woohoo!! Super happy and proud 🥲

I got sick, then slack, then sick again, but I am finally about to record some more videos. I've managed to script a bunch of reviews during my time off, videos incoming for: Left Hand of Darkness Blood Cell Valuable Humans in Transit Silver Nitrate A Tide of Black Steel Maybe Grimm's War

Cover Reveal for The Crypt 2: Voidstrike by Scott Sigler. It's not up for preorder yet but this cover by artist Filip Dudek is outrageous. The second It's available I'm preordering one. #scifi #scifibooks #booksky @scottsigler.bsky.social

Well, they can't all be winners 🪐📚💙 youtu.be/9b97PudB818

@scottsigler.bsky.social Love paperbacks!!

New video: a small book haul and unboxing my very first @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social sci-fi box!! #booktube #bookhaul 💙📚🪐 👀📚 youtu.be/R4pr89T3aB0?...

I adored The Hand of God by @yuvalkordov.bsky.social A masterclass in world building and atmosphere, with the exact religious, gloomy, grim aesthetic that ticks all my boxes Highly recommend the book! If you want some more detailed thoughts check out my video review below. 🪐📚💙 youtu.be/XToInvtVBmA

Next book on deck and a question for all the hard cover readers. What do you do with the dust jacket while reading a hard cover?

Real reading slump right now. 4 dnfs in quick succession, and the two books I'm currently reading (audio & physical) are both coming it as "...fine..." So far. Looking forward to a couple I have on deck though.

Woo! Thanks so much everybody very exciting.

Gosh it's so easy to spend money on books. Everywhere I look are new books I want to read, and it's so easy to just, add to cart, checkout. I need to get healthier shopping habits.

My April wrapup from the fantastic #stroygraph! 📚🪐

Probably comes in as my least favourite of the series so far, but by the end everything came together and I was loving it once again. I suspect a lot of the things I would complain about here are necessary evils to be able to set up the rest of the story. Will have to pick up Dark Age soon! 💙📚🪐

Been so tired from real life recently that I've been slack and struggled to find the motivation to actually script and record the reviews for the books I've been reading, I think I have 6 books I need to catch up on ha. I'll get there!

I couldn't cut it down to 10 books! Here are my current Top 15 Sci-Fi books! 💙📚🪐 youtu.be/m1s_-0P4I_M

My latest video is a bit of an unpopular opinion, but I think Fall of Hyperion is better than Hyperion. Come yell at me in the comments 💙📚🪐 youtu.be/P8s5gLgsUrw

Does anyone know of any indie book/fantasy/sci-fi book conventions around the gold coast/brisbane Australia in 2025? I'd love to go buy a heap of indie books.

Aaaaand, scene! This was a masterpiece. Incredible insight into that most enigmatic of Legions, terrific writing, pacing, and characterization. An absolute delight to read. Now, Ushoran awaits! #Warhammer #HorusHeresy #BlackLibrary #BookSky

For my money, the best #Warhammer40k novel put out by #BlackLibrary in a few years. Interceptor City by Dan Abnett 💙📚🪐 youtu.be/iKBsuwneHvs

It's time.. 💙📚🪐

I am taking part in r/Fantasys bingo again this year, I had a ball last year, and the card this year looks super fun! I just published a video going over what I may or may not end up reading for each square! Check it out! 🪐📚 youtu.be/j_ELvJ_WuL0

About 160 pages into Ball Lightning, and I'm,, a little bored? 😬😬 Hoping it picks up in the second half. 🪐📚

Can anyone help me out? I'm looking for a book to fill a spot in 2025 bingo. I need a book published in 2025, that's a debut novel, preferably sci fi, dark/sad is my vibe. 🙏 🪐💙📚

It was my birthday! So I spent too much money on books! Come check out what I got! #haul #bookhaul #booktube #books youtu.be/KP46a3J4j_0

📺 I remain 4d behind on my #BookTube viewing. I’m currently watching @bensbookclub.bsky.social cover his R/Fantasy Bingo Board. But I can see from the pause ⏸️ screen that @nssecretbookaholic.bsky.social has an episode on this too, with differing outcomes on each 😯 ⚔️ #FantasyBooks 🪐📚💙 #BookSky 🦋

Guess what I'm reading. 💙📚🪐

I finished my Bingo Board! From R/Fantasy's Bingo 2024. Full of Sci Fi and Fantasy reads, and then I ranked them all from my least to most favorite. 🪐📚💙 Check it out here: youtu.be/KQINYEG0BoU

New video review up! I adored Kings of the Wyld and now I finally got around to reading Bloody Rose, both by Nicholas Eames, who I can pretty comfortably say is my favorite fantasy author. Video link below @nicholaseames.bsky.social got me hankering for book 3 now! 💙📚🪐 youtu.be/ra5CuBbf3Ls

No, I am not "on a roll on LinkedIn" and I resent the implication that I am thank you very much.

Half way through Interceptor City by Dan Abnett, and so far it's phenomenal, one of the best #BlackLibrary and #Warhammer40k books I've read in years. 🪐📚💙

Books that may or may not get video reviews soon.

I'm only half way through Bloody Rose, but Nicholas Eames might be my favourite fantasy author Ive read so far! 🪐📚💙

I never pick up new release books, but I couldn't walk past Grady Hendrix's new books Witchcraft for Wayward Girls, which I really really liked! Video review below! 🩸📚 youtu.be/i668F_Y4rd0

Read a book based 100% on the cover, and was luckily rewarded with a fantastic fantasy pirate story, dripping with culture. 🪐📚💙 youtu.be/Y5J1YpLfcDI?...

My slowest reading month in years, with health issues and the new puppy basically entirely stopping me for a few weeks. I started Book 2 of the Wheel of time on January 31st and finished it on March 1st. Everyone who said it was even better than the first was right. Phenomenal read! 💙📚🪐

After several weeks of battling mental health, and our new puppy, I finally recorded a video again. Going to try to get back into my routine! Video review for Babel coming soon!

Apologies all, no video tomorrow, maybe not next week either. On Tuesday I was hospitalised with severe anxiety attacks, which I am still suffering very badly from, I am not functioning at all let alone being up to recording and editing anything.

Let me introduce the reason my reading and videos may be a little slower for the next short while. This is Merlin.

Argh, recorded a whole long video, only to realise I never hit record. Oof

It's time. My next read 🪐📚💙

I don't know when or why I wrote this note, but it's just not true. But also it's 100% true

Saw the new collected editions of the #murderbot books the other day, I think they look phenomenal, and I was honestly tempted to pick them up despite owning the seperate editions. Although I think it's a real shame they didn't take the opportunity to switch Fugitive Telemetry and Network Effect.

The Jar Hath Spoken! My next read is Brandon Sandersons Skyward. I've only read Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson, keen to see how this SciFi novel goes. 🪐📚

@thebrokenbinding.bsky.social knocking it out of the park with shipping again. The packages have to get all the way to Australia and some of them, like today's, get a bit. Beaten up. But the book itself is in pristine condition, dispute Auspost using the box as a football.

Alright, Ive never read romance in my life, but the Bingo square I need to complete for my challenge is Romance, so here goes! 🪐📚🌶️

About 70% of the way through this, having an absolute blast. Perhaps not particularly scary, but some horrifying scenes nonethrless. Only me second Grady Hendrix book, after Horrorstor, I think K I need to check out some others! 📚🩸
