I mean I really don't have to spend money anywhere. Hilton is now on the list of do not use.

Mad Sisters of Esi by Tashan Mehta just knocked Jasmine Throne out of my to 5 books ever. I will post a full review soon, but it is deep, dark, filled with longing and chaotic and lovely and comforting. It is a book worth investing time in #💙📚 #🪐📚

Ugh finished A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping last night, and just so many tears...the multiple autistic characters. The multiple characters dealing with trauma and feelings. The healing and the power of people seeing you when you can't see yourself. 😭 just so wonderful. #💙📚

We lost a truly amazing leader. RIP Alice Wong.

Further confirmation that Tr*mp owns the Supreme Court, who are complicit with him starving Americans.

The level of evil on display is mind-boggling

NO KINGS DAY!!!!! When people tell the king what they think of him and he pretends they really hate their own country.

Hello Missoula!!!

Just got deseret Book ad. An app that promises no surprise spice and curated "clean" romance. Tag line "join your proper romance era". Slut shaming is in I guess. just call them close door romances and stop defining your romance as the morally correct type. #📚💙

My content’s going to be obnoxious today & tomorrow, fair warning. I’m trying to hit my goal of 500 paid subscribers in Bindery for my birthday tomorrow and I am 115 away. So I will be obnoxious as I try to make that happen over the next 48 hours. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Go subscribe: leftunreadbooks.binderybooks.com

I have a few books I'm reading for an upcoming author conversation I get to HOST. (Still not over this) But Luminous by Silvia Park has me by the throat so I'm reading that instead. The human on robot crime has me hoping for an unusual robots win storyline over a Black Beauty ending. 🫣🫣🫣🫣 #🪐📚 #💙📚

Super sick but well enough to read join me on a readathon. Up first, Recipes for an Unexpected afterlife by Deston J. Munden. (128/278) Who would you become if you were released from your previous life? An undead orc knight finds out #📚💙 #🪐📚

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Gliff by Ali Smith is a stunning dystopian. I am clutching nearly every sentence to my chest. Honestly, this is a classic in the making. #💙📚 #📚📚

Started #hammajangluck today and it is a bit of a sucker punch. Heist with heart? Hawaiian cyber punk? Yes please 📚💙 🪐📚

If we're doing groceries and take-out discourse, here's my take: Man-made famines are crimes against humanity. If you can help the World Central Kitchen in Gaza, please do. Donate dollars. Call your reps. Share their story in your communities to invite help.

Someone will probably call this hyperbole. To which I say, you've been calling every true prediction about this hyperbole for years.

AFTER he was released, instead of an apology: "On Tuesday morning, while boarding his flight to Vermont, Chavarria said he received an email from U.S. Customs and Border Protection: his Global Entry permission had been revoked. No reason was given."

Trying to figure out if putting a bowl of freshly picked raspberries on one of my most-look-forward-to books this year so I can get a better shot Is sacrilegious or not? #meetmeatthecrossroads by Megan Giddings is FIRE. 📚💙

I don’t have the capacity to offer any real thoughts at the moment, but here is a long list of books to help you think about a wide variety of subjects we desperately need to be talking about with our neighbors right now.

We now have a concentration camp in Florida. Stop pretending any of this is normal. If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person. Be human.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Anytime the American press uses the word "homeland" a little democracy fairy winks out of existence. #screaningintothevoud apnews.com/article/iran...

"In a previously unreported development, federal agents came to suspect that Bukele and members of his inner circle had diverted US aid funds to the gang." Read the whole investigation, republished from @propublica.org ⬇️

The L.A. protesters have really gone too far this time… 🌼

Better yet we start calling Trump Republicans royalists.

This is sickening. Also if LA needs "liberated", why are women and kids at parks? The cognitive dissonance here is wild.

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

Posting this 1967 Birmingham News editorial cartoon for all the people who don't realize that this is how MLK was viewed by a big chunk of white America.

MY MONSTER JUST WON A NEBULA AWARD "Thank you" feels too small, but thank you to everyone who has supported this weird, little book. To everybody who it made feel a little less alone? Remember: we all belong.

California representatives did a check in where migrants were being detained. They found no beds, no food and no water. Children were among the detained.

The Los Angeles Police Department has stated that demonstrations in the city have remained peaceful. Let that sink in.

My challenge: actually invest your energy, time and money into your politics. If you believe reading is political, subscribe to my Bindery so that I can grow this imprint and invest in more Black & brown authors. We are going to have to fight for better together. Leftunreadbooks.binderybooks.com

Happy pub week to #meetmeatthecrossroads by Megan Giddings. Lakewood is still a fav. I'm looking forward to this! 📚💙 Two sisters raised apart go exploring through a mysterious door. Scaple sharp characters and commentary @amistadbooks.bsky.social the book is beautiful and I'm already hooked
