There's a wonderful callout to @stephenking.bsky.social's "Dark Tower" in @joe-hill.bsky.social's new book, "King Sorry". You'll know it when you read it!

Hey! My favorite room in the house is the library; when two bookworms have been together for 40 years. Of course, not one single book in common.

It's 72°! It's 26°! It's November in Georgia, where the weather is nuts and the plants are VERY confused.

@frankconniff.bsky.social @tracebeaulieu.bsky.social Fashion designers Viktor & Rolf...OR Wally Cox and a thinner, bearded Paul Lynde?

If you read this thread (and do) you will want to read @drlindseyfitz.bsky.social's "The Facemaker", about the visionary surgeon who rebuilt the faces of WWI's injured heroes, and in the process ushered in the modern era of plastic surgery. Buy/order at your local independent bookstore.

Incredible display of dresses on revolving platforms in a room decorated with chandeliers and playing what sounds like a Philip Glass piece.

Screenshot of an interactive widget that allows you to listen to A-ha’s “Take On Me”, which is made up of dozens of layered instrument and vocal tracks.

Great opportunity to recommend "Sparrow" by James Hynes. "In this unforgettable novel, James Hynes brings the ancient Roman city of Carthago Nova – its markets, temples, taverns of the lowly, and mansions of the rich – to vivid, brutal life."

And a great indie bookstore, Highland Books!
