May your troubles be less & your blessings be more & nothing but MORE BOOKS come through your door... Looking to get lucky with a new favorite book this month? I've got you covered! youtu.be/a7He7CSASCQ

#CurrentlyReading The writing & presentation of the story is extremely unique - reminds me a bit of N.K. Jemisin’s The Broken Earth trilogy. Its style flows seamlessly between first, second & third person, which took me a little time to adjust, but I’m totally in the flow now!!

Aliens, wishes granted through tattoos, angels, demons and masked vigilantes....makes for an interesting week of reading, I'll tell ya that! youtu.be/Y5h7nxnOLg0

Who’s going to see Mickey 17 this weekend?? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️ I’m finally reading ANTIMATTER BLUES by Edward Ashton! ☺️ I’m flying through this one - can confirm it’s just as delightful as the first book. Same great humor with even HIGHER stakes as these colonists continue to try and eke out a life on Niflheim.

Popping in this morning to share all of the titles I read in February - what I rated them and why - with a little luck, maybe I've found something you'd like to pick up for yourself! youtu.be/axn61XdIMv4

Island setting. Revenge on your enemies plotline. TATTOO MAGIC. The magic done using tattoos is what caught my interest…but I was snapped up in this one in the first chapter. The plot was still being teased at - but it’s the characters that drew me in: Reva & Kahu. Can’t wait to read the rest!

A bit of a mixed bag this week, but next week is looking so bright I'm gonna need shades, baby! (at least I hope so) youtu.be/PVPXmjREak0

Talk about luck 'o the Irish!!! I got approved for SO MANY ARCs this month!!!! Most of these will be out in March or April, so I'll get to share some early insights to help you decide which ones to cop (or drop!) youtu.be/FK7Msu8jz68

It’s not often I give every book in a trilogy 5 ⭐️ ratings - especially when it’s a subgenre I tend to skip over - but that’s EXACTLY what I did with The Ruinous Love trilogy by Brynne Weaver! Weaver unlocked the Auto Buy Author Achievement for me with this last one. 🎉

Revenge is best served at 96.8 degrees... Let's talk THE BUFFALO HUNTER HUNTER, the upcoming historical horror novel from Stephen Graham Jones courtesy of @sagapressbooks.bsky.social on 03/18/25!! youtu.be/RjSqAvhQzlo #BuffaloHunterHunter

I usually prefer a more lighthearted, fun read to accompany my morning coffee, but I’ve had this bind up sitting on my shelf for a few years and decided to pick it up recently. I *love* Rorshach!!

I am beyond thrilled to share the cover of THE SOUND OF THE DARK by Daniel Church, set to release 10/28/25, courtesy of @angryrobotbooks If you like atmospheric & eerie horror, you might want to put this one on your radar! Cover design provided by Sarah O'Flaherty

Some people match their reads to holidays. While they were reading romance/love stories, I'm over here reading about revenge, serial killers, war, masked heroes....lol youtu.be/1F37t_HcG44

February: the month of love because of Valentine's Day, the day we express our love & affection. Well I love books, so heeeeerrrrrre we go! youtu.be/BBeHvdrpcPM

Man, this week has been STACKED with excellent reads! youtu.be/weYYZEzgECc

Zora Neale Hurston spent 14 years researching Herod the Great - one of our history’s most vilified figures. This is the fruits of her labor - revealing her findings & beliefs that he was NOT the demon the Bible made him out to be, but a religious and philosophical man who lived a life of adventure.

Thank you @SagaPressBooks #SagaSaysCrew for this incredible gift! THE BUFFALO HUNTER HUNTER is the chilling American Indian revenge story of Blackfeet Indian Good Stab & the Lutheran priest who transcribes his story. Expected publication: 03/18/25 B&N has a preorder for signed copies, FYI.

"Welcome, Crawler. Welcome to the Dungeon. Survival is optional. Keeping the viewers entertain is not." THE APOCALYPSE WILL BE ILLUSTRATED!!!!! youtu.be/05EMVJ6alW8

It's a wild mix of genres on deck for February! I AM EXCITE! youtu.be/Vi4XYA8txOk

Rebecca Yarros did me so damn dirty with this one…..but I still loved it - my favorite in the series so far, actually. I’m still mad though 😆

For those who love the game....and those who don't understand why, read this book!! youtu.be/qp3HSIwNw5M

Not even at the halfway mark & I’ve already purchased the second book in this series. If you’re a #Dresden fan, I think you’ll love this series. (Seriously, if battling raging hormones and high school weren’t enough, try adding learning to wield magic - in secret - to the list!)

Ever done TOO good a job choosing books to read??! youtu.be/ThhSfj95PKg

After making a few tweaks to how I plan to use my planner this year, I thought I'd share! youtu.be/nF0-_94uyX0 #SterlingInkCommonPlanner #Journal

Is my Favorite Fantasy Series OF ALL TIME List about to crown a new top spot winner this year?!!!! youtu.be/VX93RGyBPcM #BookTwitter

There was never a more perfect time to pick this book up than now. I’m still very early in, but Janny Wurts has the perfect balance of character introductions, intrigue and action. Best of all - I don’t have to wait hundreds (or thousands) of pages for payoff! 🎉

Giving my first 5 star rating to a Grady Hendrix book was *not* on my Bingo card for 2025...but here we are! youtu.be/KES7URm5lRo #GradyHendrix #WitchcraftForWaywardGirls #Review

It's a mixed bag this week, Dave. youtu.be/sM3naInZ2_U
