Books of 2026 #1: The Irresistible Urge To Fall For Your Enemy Ohhhh I giggled and kicked my feet the whole way through. There are such beautiful turns of phrase. The many crossroads and thresholds that appear are magical. The balcony!!!!! Adored this. A phenomenal start to the year's reading.

Writing Tip: Got a sudden great idea while in the middle of writing something? Don't just shoehorn it in. Ask yourself if it's a good idea to include it in what you got. Sometimes those great ideas you get are better suited to another/later work. #writing #writingtips #Booksky

I think a good romance series people should read is the Palace of Rogues by Julie Anne long because it is about people that try starting their lives again after setbacks. They’re all standalone but one of my favorites is My Season of Scandal

A pilot just flew through one of the strongest aurora storms in years — and saw the sky explode in color. From the cockpit of a Boeing 787, pilot Matt Melnyk had a view like no one else. Flying at 37,000 feet over Manitoba, he watched as the auroras filled the entire sky.

The second in the series, a witty and captivating mystery set in a 1920s-esque magical world. The language made me hold the book aloft in delight at times and the characters are so wonderfully written. I can't fault the plot either. Great stuff. #fantasy 💙📚

I’m preping to interview @berondam.bsky.social about her amazing new #BookSky release this week WHEN TREES TESTIFY and one of the points she makes is that enslavers kept better track of plants and animals than the enslaved people that they enslaved One of the most important 🧪 books this decade.
