Strictly a book review account. And yes, yes I know the name is Book Wyrm but I've got a Chocobo for a profile picture but I just dont see chocobo's as very bookish. https://linktr.ee/Thebookwyrmshoard25 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Oh hey we got an actual apology from the VP of our dept for all of the *crap* they've put us through over the last year. Here's hoping this translates to a freaking raise too

Cat update: He only ate one of his two usual meals yesterday & ate it very slowly, a few bites at a time. And today he only had three bites of breakfast. So we're taking him in to our usual vet this afternoon for a checkup

Send good vibes and also, if you can, money

Of all the people that go sideways in that game Weigraf is the most disappointing and I can certainly see how grief could push him to make the decisions he does but its still just infuriating that he ends up being as dumb as everyone else.

An extremely important topic that needs to be addressed often and loudly.

It’s dehumanizing being trans in America.

At Hero's extremely progressive stances, so if Sebastian can be not just *okay* w/ it but pretty damn supportive I'd say he sets the standard for males in historical *fiction* and we have one maybe two complaints per book from the male MC that are seated in logic and not pure sexist bs.

Just a girl and her books @thebookwyrmshoard2.bsky.social · 11h

It's such a turn off when someone writes a period mystery with a progressive female love interests and then have the male MC spend half of his time complaining about how he doesn't agree w/ how progressive she is. Is it more historically accurate? Maybe, but Sebastian St. Cyr rarely bats an eye...
