I had the best of times reading these books! I can wait to read more from Odette, what do you recommend (if you've read any)? If you haven't read anything from her, maybe try this?

Texting with another YA author friend this morning about the rough state of the market, and our consensus was, publishing keeps looking for the next Hunger Games, but they wouldn’t acquire the original if it were in their inboxes today

Excited for the cover of Child of the Dragon by Ashely Sheeshley (@ashintheashes.bsky.social)! Out 10 March 2026 but preorders open from @inkedingraypress.bsky.social

Imagine Eragon but modern day and a girl finds out that she IS a dragon, has to defeat evil AND somehow still think of Maths!

Reminder that before I started writing novels I didn't study writing at university, attended no workshops/conferences, knew absolutely no one in science fiction publishing circles, and didn't start going to conventions until after I got a contract for my novel.

What I *did* do: Write. A lot.
Saw a post recently about what makes someone a "serious" writer. It included studying writing at university, partaking in multi-day workshops, attending conferences, attending awards ceremonies.

Sounds a lot like pay-to-play, to me.

The Phantom Noctis by Dahlia Jade is out now and you should all go get it if you like Fae and/or vampires! Thanks so much to the author for letting me have an arc and I can't wait for the next one 🀩. My full review will be out later on my blog and review sites!

My #wwwwednesday aka #lastnownext ! Any of these three you've read or looking forward to? I always recommend Nisha J. Tuli because I think she's such a great author. Tessa Bailey is slowly becoming a favourite of mine!

Yes this IS a lot of books (Don't count the ones I didn't get to from last month). Ether I'm mad or ambitious (or just both). Also I finished a book earlier but didn't feel like removing it here.
Which of these books have you already read/want to read? Hit me up for a buudy read! #booksky
