Just pulled this season’s spooky season reads off the shelves and made my stack! 🎃 I’ll dig into these after I finish Roots of Darkness and Dawn of the North (DotN is via ARC) from The Ashen series. 💙📚

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ dark, contemporary mystery/thriller set around Halloween Fast-paced, twisty, late 30's FMC, suspenseful, & CATS! The cover & description imply a supernatural story; it's not. Content warning for SA (in the past, not graphic), murder, violence, light gore. Thanks @netgalley.bsky.social ! 💙📚⚡

Self-care Sunday on the back porch. Gorgeous weather, delicious tea, an entertaining ARC to read 👌 #booksky #teasky #porchlife

This morning’s frantic vacuuming, mopping, sanitizing, and deodorizing brought to you by an OCD crash out triggered by toxic family drama involving multiple phone calls before 11am.

I’ll be at the Atlanta event!

Happy Mabon! 🎃 🍁 Seemed like a good day to finally try this pumpkin cream AlaniNu, and I did not hate it (seems like most people did)!

Danny knows you want to come stay with us for #DragonCon2026. Tony told him. Get ready…. The Monday before each of these dates, we will post information about that specific onsale, including links where applicable.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for @paperfury.bsky.social's debut adult horror novel! "You Did Nothing Wrong" took the rage, horror, & dread Drews' gave us in their YA horror novels to entirely new levels. This book pulls no punches; there are scenes that will haunt me forever. I loved it. Look for it in March 2026! 💙📚 🩸📚

I need to make a big work/job decision and it’s stressing me TF out.

If work doesn’t sort itself out by noon, I’m pulling down the damn Halloween decorations and doing something that is *actually* productive today instead of sitting around waiting for other people to do their jobs (like I did yesterday). 😤

General Cospital — #DragonCon2025 When fans have cosplay emergencies, they turn to the staff of General Cospital. youtu.be/L1hqNCP2SgY @dragoncon.org

Tonight we watched the first 4 episodes of S2 of Wednesday. It’s so good to be back at Nevermore 🖤💜 I’m glad I saved this for after Dragon Con, it helps with the PCD.

A library hold has been delivered! I’m reading All The Colors Of The Dark, by Chris Whitaker. I’ve had this book on hold since last winter and can’t wait to dive in. Today’s tea is Undertaker from CuriosiTea. Happy Saturday! #booksky #teasky

The color of my tea before and after adding lemon! This is "Magical Powers" from the Fantasy Trope Collection by Cliche Teas and has lemon verbena, lemon myrtle, butterfly pea, & stevia leaf. I added some honey as well as the lemon. YUM. #teasky

I finished my rewatch of all 6 seasons, and both movies, of #downtonabbey, so I am perfectly prepared for the Grand Finale movie releasing later this month! I should buy stock in Kleenex rfn.

Current audiobook is Nocticadia, by Keri Lake, and WOW am I enjoying the creepy, dark academia vibes! It's the perfect spooky season kickoff read for me. Now, I have to choose between 3 ARCs and some library holds coming due any day...tough decisions ahead. #booksky 📚💙

Today is my last big packing push for #Dragoncon. 48 hours from now I’ll be in my hotel room UNpacking! 😀

#tea and #downtonabbey tonight. The calm before the storm.

It’s #dragoncon crunch time—10 days to go! I’m still re-watching #downtonabbey and re-listening to the Crowns of Nyaxia series on audio. This past weekend, we celebrated the 1yr anniversary of the bookshop with one HELL of a party.

The #DragonCon2025 festival lineup 😉 is absolute 🔥! Excited to see 2 of my fave local DJs playing at Con for the first time this year. 🪩 💃🏻

Fifteen days until DragonCon! What are you doing to get ready? #BritTrack2025 #DragonCon2025 #Countdown

The only cure for my #Gildedage hangover is to rewatch #Downtownabbey. This will also help keep me from picking up a physical book before DragonCon. 😃 I’m currently re-listening to the first 3 books of the Crowns of Nyaxia series and will read this year’s installments after Con. 📚

#thegildedage finale was 15/10. Stupendous. Brilliant. All the feels. Now the long, long wait for a new season 😭

Time for a cup of #tea and the season finale of #thegildedage!

Visited the nephew at work on Book Lovers Day! Laziest bookseller ever lol. #caturday #catsky

Basically my life’s motto.

I’ve been slamming some fantasy reads this summer. Reread #throneofglass. Just finished #platedprisoner (I had mixed feelings but mostly enjoyed it). Now I’m gonna reread #crownsofnyaxia via audio this time. I have some library holds due soon, but for something different here’s my CR: #booksky

I've lived in Dekalb County ( #atlanta ) since 1999. We're moving next year & East Point (Fulton County) is a strong possibility. This would take me away from my stomping grounds of the most recent 15 years, where I have truly put down roots and where my best friends all live within a 5 min drive.

Went to visit the nephew at work, caught him napping on the job. #caturday

Tonight was brought to me by the letter P: Plated Prisoner (Gleam) and a pot pie 🥧 (chicken-bacon-veggie) from the corner market. My kind of party! #booksky #dinnersky

Story of my life.

20 chapters left in my #throneofglass reread. I’m going to enjoy it with one of my fave Cliche teas. #kingdomofash #booksky #teasky

Batch 1 is complete! This is my OG Caramel Apple recipe. #Riker thinks you’d like it. 6.5 weeks to #dragoncon ! 🐉 🍎 🥧 IYKYK

Repost if you like Raccoons, dumpsters, Snackie Snacks or reading. 🤣

I matched my #alaninu to my new nails. 💅

No cats here today for a Caturday post. Instead, a #cosplay post. Adding some stud mesh to my Star Trek punk band cosplay for #dragoncon. Just 2 months to go!

Tache’s Sunday vibes. #catsky #catsofbluesky #tuxedocat

Fuel for cosplay work today: cotton candy #alaninu is actually pretty good. I’m not usually into cotton candy flavors, but it’s tasty and surprisingly not too sweet.

Happy #caturday from Tache! Today we’re working #dragoncon cosplay. We just added some patches and pins to my Punk Trek Band uniform, next up some studs and safety pins. #catsky

Tache is so excited that it’s Friday, he’s showing a lil fang 😻 Fun fact, this Prince mat is both of my fur nephews’ favorite play spot. They clearly have good taste. 💅 #catsky

Currently in a #throneofglass reread. Just started Crown of Midnight, which matches today’s tea: Dark vs. Light from the fantasy tea collection by Cliche Teas. For this reread I put Assassin’s Blade first and it made ALL of the difference. Read it first or read it last, never in the middle. 💙📚🌶️

Another weekend, another fur nephew 😻 Tache says WASSUP! This is the last fur nephew visit we have on the books for a while, gotta fix that. #catsky

Just booked our stay at Home Bass! The crew is READY 🪩 💃🏻 #homebass #edm #musicfestival

Always gonna be a TNG girl at heart, but damn I love me some Voyager. Can't wait to catch this panel at Con! #dragoncon #startrek #startrekvoyager

Oh yessss! #dragoncon

Started prepping my cosplays for #dragoncon this weekend. Trimmed up a new wig for my Crescent City Viper Queen. Ordered some new patches to upgrade my Punk Trek uniform, some hair to braid for my Fantasy Mermaid, and the plastic flasks for gifts of Apple Pie (IYKYK 🐉). Not a bad start!

It’s an absolutely perfect porch evening in Atlanta. 🌳 🌞 💨 Current 📕: The Hanging Girl by Jussi Adler-Olsen. (Department Q #6) #booksky #porchlife

First time on the big screened porch. He’s a fan. Lil fur-nephew goes home tomorrow. #catsky

Hey baby. #catsky
