Since many of us are cancelling streaming services, now might also be a good time to support writers and artists. Times are extremely tough for creatives, so why not buy a book, commission an art piece, sign up for a Patreon, tip your favorite creators. Everything helps.

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

It's been awhile since I've posted a reading wrap up or anything in general. I've been struggling with some things in my personal life. Life is a bit better now so I will be more active on social media... I'm reading more, and I found some amazing books last month! #storygraph #booksky

I started this book the other day. It's been on my TBR for years. I'm a little over halfway through it and I had to put it to the side. It's so triggering. It's put me in a really dark spot. I will pick it up again soon when I can clear my head. Has anyone read this? It's heartbreaking 😭💔 #booksky

Oh my goodness! This book had me in a chokehold! It was one of those books I didn't want to put down, but at the same time, I didn't want it to end! It's a murder mystery that is sapphic, lesbian and trans as well. The MC is morally grey. Thank you @marisabillions.bsky.social for the rec! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The only reason I hate letting FB go is the support groups I've found there. If it wasn't for the parosmia group I wouldn't have found out about using a swimming plug in my nose so I could eat. I'm hoping to find another support group. Who knows where I'd be if I hadn't found that group. Damn meta 👎🏻

My new morning routine after coffee is to write to my representative and my Senators. 🇺🇸

All us romance book girls getting thrown in jail under project 2025: “Aye, what’re you in for?” “Well, I read this book about a girl who accidentally summoned a sexy demon with a rotating dick.” #BlackBookSky 📚💙

I started this book a few days ago. Tiffany D Jackson hasn't written a book that I haven't liked! It's taking me a bit longer to read this one. The rage I feel reading it. Have you read this one? #booksky

“I can’t understand something for you” is my go to phrase when dealing with nazi in chief supporters.

It’s pretty simple ❤️

Your daily reminder that art is rebellion. Don’t stop creating.

It's my birthday today and this year just hits so hard 😞 I'm going to watch Beetlejuice Beetlejuice since I haven't seen it yet and possibly read more of my book. #birthday #booksky

I read 5 books in January. 2 of them were arcs. Great reads this round! #readingwrapup #booksky

Sorry to be a little old school about it but I definitely don’t have ADHD it’s just that the fairies take and move my stuff all the time.

WHO DID THIS!

I was at a book fair signing books. A straight couple comes up and asks what my books about. I mention that all of my characters are lesbian or bi. The cis het white male proceeds to ask me why I needed to make my characters lesbian or bi. Why couldn’t I just write “normal” characters. 1/

Mercy is free this weekend! I love this mm fantasy romance between a sun priest and an angel. #booksky #queerbooksky

@okayishbookgirl on TikTok has created a website listing sapphic books! Make sure you go give her a follow while you’re at it #booksky #sapphicbooksky sapphicshelf.com

If you're feeling down today, here's a raccoon playing with bubbles. #happyfriday #joy #joyful #happy

Reading is political. Reading has always been political. Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground. #booksky

Starting today, same-sex marriage is officially legalized in Thailand. It’s the first country in Southeast Asia to recognize marriage equality.

Since I've stopped making content on TT, I've just been making bread and snuggling under my blankets watching my comfort shows. I'm in a bit of a book slump, but that's okay. Today's Dutch oven bread 🍞 Sending love to everyone 🫂💙 #bread #booksky

So glad to see my state on here.

The weirdest thing about cutting people off is how badly they want to regain access to you. They’ll go as far as having other people message you on their behalf. I cut you off for a reason, baby. You don’t get to come to the fun parties anymore. I never let someone make a fool of me twice.

📚📚 An EASY and FREE thing you can do right now is get a library card!! 📚📚 THEY are coming for our libraries. Libraries are the foundation of community efforts and one of the last true places you can exist and gather without a fee. Simply USING the library helps and is so EASY AND FUN!

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

Tiktok, care to explain?

Well. I uploaded my first YouTube short video. I'm really going to miss making content on TT, but I can't go back to it. I will see how it is over on YouTube. I miss my pocket book friends. #booksky #bookreader

i wasn't born to work, i was born to go on adventures, browse book shops, concoct potions, cast spells and spend my days sipping coffee in my 18th century seaside castle.

Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

I'm going to watch Dexter today and try to read my arcs that are due this month

Cause let’s be honest what else matters today💙 #mlkday #booksky #tiktokrefugee #heretostay

Regardless of TikTok being back, #booksky is my new home.

soo everyone is falling for the political theater now since the TikTok app is working again… we’re never escaping this hell 🙃

In honor of Booktok, what is a book you found because of Booktok that ended up being a 5⭐️ read? Mine was Kindred by Octavia E. Butler. I read this last year and this book has still stuck with me. I won't ever forget it.

Oh, you want a spicy story with a vengeful FMC and bad guys who get what’s coming to them? Have I got the duology for you. 🩸Bisexual poly quad takes on an evil King Arthur🩸 www.amazon.com/dp/B0CK12F1X7 #booksky #booktok #paranormalromance

I used to love reading dystopian fiction in high school. Reaaaaally not enjoying living through dystopian reality as an adult.

If you weren’t on Booktok, you don’t really get to have an opinion right now. Many marginalized creators were able to build community there and grow platforms. I now have a publishing imprint, publishing Indigenous books, BCUZ of Booktok. We are all struggling with how to rebuild on other apps.

Well MAGA, you got got. You let racism, misogyny, xenophobia, and ignorance win. You voted for a man who not only doesn’t give a shit about you, he doesn’t give a shit about America. He only cares for himself. This is the beginning of the end of the United States of America. Fascism is here.

This. I don't want to go back.

I cannot believe that our ghetto ass govn't actually worked together to get rid of a fuckin app. Meanwhile, I can die from eating a mixed salad laced with Listeria or a mass shooting on my way to get it. Man, FUCK YALLL
