Today I'm reviewing AS MANY SOULS AS STARS by Natasha Siegel! 💙📚🌈

"Another Siegel book that will sit on my shelf of favorites. The characters and their relationship, as well as the story's premise, were all incredibly compelling... Siegel is now an auto-buy author for me." 4.5⭐
As Many Souls as Stars – ARC Review
Hello, everyone! Today I'm starting off December with a review of one of my most anticipated reads of the year, As Many Souls as Stars by Natasha Siegel. The author's last book, The Phoenix Bride, has lived rent free in my head since I read it last year. So, I've been super excited to pick up this new release. Did it live up to my expectations?

Why 'Demon King Daughter?' Because Kyoka Ouno is gifted all the memory and power of the Demon King before she's born! She is Masuyo's daughter /and/ the Demon King. She learns how little Demon King memories help with day to day life XD

From left to right: 1) Kiseki 2) Hasava 3) Issei 4) Seina 5) Nori 6) Himari 7) Yuuto - Bottom, foreground of the image features a mother (Masuyo) and daughter (Kyoka) pair. Masuyo is holding Kyoka on her hip, and they're both smiling happily at each other. Masuyo has neck-length, black hair, a tan skin, brown eyes, and is wearing a black leather jacket over a white shirt, with black pants. Kyoka has very dark, brown skin, short, messy black hair, and vibrantly red eyes. She's wearing a black hoodie, baggy shorts, and puffy white socks sticking out of her simple sneakers.

We have: Grumpy x sunshine (with reversed colour palette!) corporate royalty, taboo romance (princess x thief), different worlds (literally!), emotional scars for EVERYONE!!!, and damsel in distress.

Gotta love going to the very official "readbc" organization website, complete with Government of Canada and BC seals and seeing nothing but sad literary novels for depressed divorcees. Not a genre cover in sight.

Maybe like, bring some light into your literary culture and ppl will be interested, BC

Hard call. I think it's definitely between @garethlpowell.bsky.social's Future Edge's and @garygibsonsf.bsky.social's Xenopraxis.
The book cover of Gareth Powell's Future's Edge, which shows a person looking out upon a scene filled with ruins with two worlds overhead, all illuminated in yellows. The book cover for Gary Gibson's Xenopraxis, which shows a rocket launching from a cliff edge with a vast landscape beneath stretching towards a sunset on the horizon.

Wasn't sure if I'll even manage to read this such a short while after Matt's passing.🖤

Made it halfway through before I needed an hour-long break for a good cry. 😭

I'm 99% certain I won't review it right now (I likely can't), maybe in a few weeks.

But please: Read it!

I noticed that the Nebula Awards nomination ballot is open now for SFWA members. So uh. You know.

Just putting the energy I want to see into the world here.

art nouveau commission for @khonri.bsky.social !

[ #art #OCart #artcommission ]
Art Nouveau style illustration of a Tarot card representing the Magician. Eru, a man with shoulder-length white hair dressed in a white shirt, dark blue waistcoat, and black pants, is reaching up towards a floating feather. A dark cape trails from his shoulder, and a pocket watch dangles from his waistcoat. He's standing in front of bookshelves; the air near his feet is thicker with darkness and stars. Behind him is a circular design with elemental symbols. The foreground features various kinds of vegetation: hyacinths, chrysantemums, lillies at the bottom, and on the upper left-hand side, dying stalks of vegetation. Eru belongs to Khonri on Bluesky.

Thanks for the share!

I'm 🎲ReDiceSet, and I draw OCs all the time! My mind is taken up with stories and worlds, and little else!🌟
A boy with long blond hair, a baggy coat, and a witch styled hat, walks with a little blob bunny creature. They walk down a path with lavender along the sides, a field stretches out beside them, clouds curving in the sky and a bright sun shines down. The boy carries a big sholder bag. In a large cave, a boy with a witch hat and long blond hair stands beside a large tree, looking out at the scene. He is in the Cave of the Fallen, called such because of the large tree that has fallen just inside the entrance. The top of the tree is stuck on the wall of the cave, creating a large space you can walk under. The tree has many vines hanging from it as well as plenty of moss growing on it. There is also a large lake in the middle of the cave. Soft green light spills in from the entrance of the cave. A smoggy winter scene with a greenish tint to the whites. Bare trees stand around the edges, and a girl in purple with a purple ponytail stands in the middle. A portrait of a woman named Phase. She has one eye that is brown and the other is sparking and bright yellow. He hair shoulder length and black. She wears a red mask over her nose and mouth. The image is done in a rough painterly style with red taking over most of the image, using blue as the shadows and bright yellow as the brightest light.

Paid a visit to the taco truck that fed me a couple nights a week in high school. 22 years later and the veggie quesadilla plate tastes exactly the same and it’s still incredible.

Various text appear on art - which is the frame of the camera app she's using on her phone named Blur™ - the texts are: - BLUR™ - v3.19.2.2 - BETATESTER - 15:44 - KEPLER - Novakov - Kasward, M.B.

Also, lets stop encouraging indie authors to publish every quarter. Fuck that! If you can do that and not burn out? Cool! But the rest of us? Oh, you might get lucky with two books a year.

The cover of Aether Torrent, a YA fantasy book now available in eBook and print. Two women sit on the ground among a growing field of curling wheat, fingers linked over what appears to be a chunk of petrified wood. Tori, the one on the left, concentrating with her head down, has long orange hair and is wearing jeans and a black-and-blue jacket. Avani, the one on the right, looking up at Tori, has short brown hair and is wearing a lightly striped shirt and skirt in two shades of green. The title AETHER TORRENT hangs above them, in front of a circular wave design. Above that are the words: "This story is cinematic as all get-out. It's a ton of fun ... everything is bursting with life." Trick Weekes, author of FEEDER and the ROGUES OF THE REPUBLIC series
