If you're brave enough, come for the open house and meet your new ghost roommate. Her hobbies include porcelain dolls 🎎, the study of poisonous plants 🌿, and humming eerie tunes in the middle of the night 🎶.
What will your conversational gambit be?
Are you ready to move onto Spinsters Row? Great news: a house down the street just opened up. It's three stories tall with stained glass windows and hardwood floors. There's only one catch... the attic remains home to a former occupant who is no longer alive 👻.
We LOVE this on Spinsters Row! 😍
The first two episodes of the revival of Reading Rainbow have nearly 500,000 views each 🤯

Do you know how cool that is for literacy, for book joy?! We are all worthy of reading, we are all readers 💚

And NOW episode three is out! Take a look, it’s in a book 📚🌈🦋

In lace-up boots, red lipstick, and righteous fury. For our foremothers. For our daughters. For anyone told to kneel. No Kings. Ever.

How many cats do you see in the painting? Comment below then peek at the answer in our blog.
This 19th-century masterpiece is a love letter to unapologetic eccentricity. It was commissioned by a woman who owned 350 cats. 🐾Yes, three. hundred. fifty. https://f.mtr.cool/wtutrbbwyv

Séances. Part performance art, part grief counseling, part feminist uprising. But when the world told women to hush, they talked to the dead instead. 🔮https://f.mtr.cool/odmzjrhsty

We love a spine-tingling tale, so gather around the fire and tell us your spookiest ghost story in 10 words or less below. We'll feature the stories that frightened, bemused, or tickled us the most in an upcoming post on our blog The Spindle. #GhostStories #EerieEncounters #10WordStory #Booksky
When the algorithm serves despair, we serve fungi that eat plastic, hedgehog hospitals, and gene-therapy miracles. 🦔🌱

This is your reminder: reading is resistance! Banned stories are often the ones we need most. Let’s talk about what’s really at stake when we silence stories. https://f.mtr.cool/fiybsztsfo  #Booksky #BannedBooksWeek

We started with the women behind the pen. But these characters, from sharp-tongued shapeshifters to punk revolutionaries, early trailblazers & modern icons; are the women who burst off the page. https://f.mtr.cool/zzzdzpkhmw

A heroine who is an everyday woman, and stumbles into being an assistant to THE Villian......who hasn't done that?
