📚 Book reader diving into mysteries, thrillers, and Historical fiction. 🎮 Lover of literature, Kdramas, and cozy gaming adventures. ☕ Always chasing comfort with tea, stories, and hobbies that warm the soul. Also a COVID conscious baddie 😷✌️
My new fav antisocial hero is a security bot that would 100% rather be streaming its shows than saving humans... but it’s too good at its job (and secretly has a heart). If you like competence, dry humor, and found-family-in-space, meet Murderbot. 🤖❤️📚

A solid 3-star read for me. Fascinating real-life subject in Lucy, Lady Duff Gordon. I love a woman MC with tenacity. Loved the Titanic & dressmaking details, but pacing lagged at times for me. Great for Gilded Age fashion fans. #booksky #thematicreadingyear #bookreview #gildedsage

Set in 1985 Ireland, this poignant Christmas story follows a coal merchant whose encounter reveals the true spirit of the season: quiet courage, moral conscience, and the power of compassion over comfortable silence. Quick read to help reach your EOY goal #booksky #currentlyreading #quickread

Min Jin Lee delivers a profound lesson in history and humanity, exploring what it means to build a life in a country that systematically marks you as an outsider. Brilliantly illustrated its core, a metaphor of the pachinko parlors: life for this family is a mix of skill and a game rigged by chance.

Back from a loooong book slump 🫶 The Mad Wife was better than I thought it would be but Snow Flower is really sticking with me emotionally. #booksky #bookwrapup #bookwork #bookslump

Currently reading “The Fox Wife” by Yangsze Choo. About halfway through now. I’m loving the dual perspectives of the fox and the detective. It’s been a captivating read so far! #blueskybooks #skybooks #booksky #bookworm #currentlyreading

February book wrap-up! I really leaned into the thrillers this but was pleasantly surprised with some historical fiction. The Lotus Shoes absolutely broke me and I can’t stop thinking about it😩 #blueskybooks #blueskybookworm

This feels right today.

Take a moment for yourself today. You need your strength to fight the good fight. They want you burnt out and silenced. Come back healed and with vengeance.

Anybody else doing something cozy while switching their attention between that and their Bluesky feed?

I am never forgetting that ALL of this is because the Dems wanted to protect Israel's ability to do a genocide on Palestinians
Everyone just got basically an ad for Trump thank you democrats

I finally organized my ever-expanding TBR and selected 25 books I must finish in 2025. On average I read 30-40 books a year so I’ve left room for new releases and recommendations.

What are you excited to read in 2025? #Booksky #books #bookrecs
