I maybe kinda failed 🙃

There is a part of me that is desperately hoping that books I want are not on Black Friday sales because I just got my shelves reorganized and as I book dragon, my restraint for buying new books is…not great 😅

Happy Pride Month, everyone! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Book dragon logic: I need to stop buying books so I can save up to go on a book buying spree!

Threads has finished their pilot for ads and is starting to roll them out more broadly 🙄 So, if you suddenly see another wave of newcomers, that would be why.

2025 book dragon energy

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the bookish of them all? 📚

Me: This book is going to destroy you. Devastate you. You will never emotionally recover. Also me: It is incredible, and you must read it.

Me: I will just listen to this audiobook for an hour to wind down before going to sleep. Also me: *4 hours later at 3am when my headphones died* …oops.

Not even book mail and reading managed to give me a small burst of dopamine, which is just sacrilegious.

I keep trying to find my way back to my playful bookish and coffee posting, but I cannot seem to find the energy, creativity, or will to do much of anything outside of screaming into the void.

Thread’s algorithm hates me because I care about absolutely heinous things like basic human rights for everyone. I know, wild stuff. Anyway, I will probably be posting here more because I refuse to stop being a book dragon who is quite passionate about DEI and the rights of my LGBTQ+ community.

We have progressed from much ado about nothing, to a comedy of errors, to a series of unfortunate events, and now we are sitting squarely in a little shop of horrors.

In a world full of villains, be a ✨menace✨

So, is there like a 14-day return policy or anything? Can we return him for a full refund?

George Orwell would be so disappointed in us right now.

I just…don’t even have anything to say today other than, I hate it here.

I want to go back to the timeline where Fruit of the Loom had a cornucopia and we had the Berenstein Bears. Maybe it had a better trajectory.

A warm welcome to all the Booktok refugees joining this week. I created these lists originally for Bookthreads, but some in the lists were also Booktok creators and users. I hope these can help you find some of your friends! Pack 1 go.bsky.app/Q8GpnBf Pack 2 go.bsky.app/d1jf3o

I did in fact choose read…today me wishes yesterday me had chosen sleep 😅

I've seen a few comments where people didn't realise I'd completed The Cruel Gods series, probably because I wasn't on Twitter when I released the third and final one 😂 But here they are! The complete trilogy! You can even buy them! Yes! Please do, my rent is going up 🤣 mybook.to/TheCruelGods

To sleep or to read, that is the question.

My cat mocks me as I work so she can live comfortably.

“How have you read so many books already? It is only two weeks into the year.” Because we are living in the dark timeline and I avoid spending any more time in reality than is absolutely necessary.

Nobody warned me that there would still be group projects in courses at the master’s degree level 😑

Meta is deleting links to Pixelfed, a decentralized, open source Instagram competitor that has had skyrocketing signups in recent days: www.404media.co/meta-is-bloc...

🌈 Hey Reading Rainbows! It’s time for our recommendation post for the next RAD renewal! Renewals will process on January 15th! Here are twenty books that we think also fit the February theme of Courting the Fae. 🧵

Can someone explain to me what BluePit is? And what all these single-letter hashtags mean? I know they have something to do with writing or books, but I cannot figure out what they stand for 🤔 #booksky #writing

“Finally, Mina was to be consecrated. Made sacred. A ceremonial rendering of himself unto this perfect creature. An act of ultimate praise.” Closted Bible student stumbles upon the hunky ancient Egyptian god of the underworld. Blasphemous debauchery ensues. 📖 #BluePit #W #A #R #D #F #LGBT #I

I love how so many of us from Threads (including myself) just entirely forget to use hashtags most of the time 😂 The way that different platforms train our behavior is wild.

My favorite hobbies are: Reading books Admiring books Buying books Convincing others to buy books Talking about books Thinking about books

Will I break 1000 followers by the end of this bus ride? I'll share a link for a free ebook when I do. A smoochy #gay #Romance could be yours if you act now! Why pay more for 🍑 stuff when you can get it here for free? 😉

Me: Look at that cute bookmark. I need it! Also me: *uses nearest scrap of paper to mark my spot instead of the many bookmarks I have*

A BONE IN HIS TEETH was in r/mm_romancebooks' top 100 books mentioned in the sub for 2024 (pictured very bottom right) and that's REALLY COOL??? 😭😭😭

That awkward moment when you can’t remember the details of your TTRPG character because December was too busy to get everyone together for a game 🙃 Will this encourage me to write more stuff down? No, that would make too much sense. Can’t have that.

On that note: Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day. Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links. Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo

For years, I’ve been trying to write a stand-alone but have failed miserably. Everything has turned into a series but I’ve done it! In order to do this though I had to write - wait for it - a novella. The series writer had written a horror-romance novella!! Cover mock-up below #BookSky #skywriters

How would you describe what kind of reader you are? I am an unapologetically eclectic mood reader.

Me to myself: I need to stop buying so many books until I can catch up with my TBR. Also me: *follows more authors and readers who are just going to tempt and enable me to buy more books* Admitting I have a problem has had no effect on solving my problem 😂

Are there any authors in the LA area who had to evacuate who would like people to buy copies of their books? I saw similar lists circulating for Florida authors during the hurricane and I know it's probably not much in the grand scheme of things but it's a tiny way that people can easily help out

I want to learn to read French. Why do I want to learn French? Because their special edition books are prettier than ours here in the States. I know, I know, my priorities are clearly in the right place.

Anyone have a habit of buying entire book series before reading any of the books? Just me? 😅

If anyone happens to know a vampire in the business of turning people, I really need immortality to finish my TBR, so please send them my way!

How dare my family expect me to be social and spend the evening in their presence instead of leaving me to read my book. I don’t know where they get the audacity.

Since there are a lot of new people following me, I figured I would share this out again so you know exactly what mayhem you are getting yourself into by following me 🙃
