my to-read book pile is out of control. seriously... its really bad... i could build a castle out of my books thats how bad it is. i could play with them like blocks.
speaking of, these are my solid top six of the season! i will admit to extra favoritism for the seer... 📚💙
long time no see! i've been busy doing indie reviews! if you're interested in checking out some cool indie titles, i've got a list of links to ones I have personally reviewed on my website now. now that i'm caught up on my backlog from the winter, expect more reviews!
I hope I will too!! It looks very cool!
It is finally time... to show off Fractured Magic! I won a giveaway for this, and as you can see, it's beautiful. If you want to read along, go check out @queerenigma.com and read it on their website!
The package was so fun to open, I was seriously delighted by all the goodies!
⏳📚⚡️📚 The Rivals or Sherlock Holmes - a collection of stories from other writers at the time of Sherlock's publishing who were inspired to make their own detective stories!! I love history and detectives so I'm hooked right there.
🩸📚⚡️📚🪐The Lonely Dead - Adele sees ghosts and really is not happy about it. Except she finds the body of an ex-best friend in a shallow grave and has to team up with her ghost anyways! People who deny/try to avoid their own magic powers are so interesting!
🪐📚Fourth Wing - I heard the author was at the festival, and there was a lot of hype. I'm stoked I found a paperback copy with the dragons airbrushed on the sides. A physically brittle girl trying to join the toughest dragon riders.. I see it, I like it. It's a fun premise!
🪐📚 Soul Jar - An anthology collection of fantasy and scifi stories by disabled authors. I've been told there's a lot of variety, so I'd love to see how it shapes up against Artifice & Access, another fantasy disability anthology I reviewed recently.
💡📚 Plums for Months - memories of a wonder-filled neurodivergent childhood by a woman who unlike many of us, was actually diagnosed with autism very young. I'm really interested to read it!
🌈📚⚡️Cemetery Boys - Yadriel wants to prove himself a real man and goes off to summon lady death.. But gets stuck with the ghost of Julian, resident bad boy, instead! LGBT+ inclusive and as part of the plot which you know I love to see.
⏳📚⚡️📚🩸The Devil's Playground - pitched to me as 1920s horror/mystery/thriller. There's a terrifying silent film with a curse, but is it really? Dual protagonist, with one in the 1920s and one hunting this film in the 1960s!
I haven't made much of a dent in them, but I have thoughts!
🎨📚 Angelica and the Bear Prince - I actually read this one right away! An amazing LGBT+ inclusive story with a brilliant artstyle and a loveable bear. It took me on an unexpected emotional journey about life, love and grief.
hey 📚💙! Here's my book haul from #portlandbookfestival! I was lucky enough to get a last minute ticket, and I'm so glad I did. It was packed, but super worth it!
One of my books is a blind-date-with-a-book I picked, can you guess which one it is? I feel like its could ne really easy or super hard
Always! None Shall Sleep is one of my all time favorites, and I have read MANY books! I'm still so hype for the new book coming out! :D I think about it often.
Same! I found a couple years back that a lot of female authors get shunted to YA regardless of content... I don't know if that's still how it's done, but I've found plenty of great YA books.
They're both thrilling in their own ways! None Shall Sleep is actually a trilogy of books, a thriller/crime fiction/mystery where two teens team up with the fbi to interview young serial killers! The Spirit Bares Its Teeth is a gothic horror/thriller with ghosts and LGBT+ and autistic protags!
A. Crimin Recommends books you can't miss! "These books have stuck with me long since I finished them, an I still think about them fondly! They all have a place of honor on my bookshelf." The books are None Shall Sleep by Ellie Marney, Fantasticland by Mike Bockoven and The Spirit Bares Its Teeth by Andrew Joseph White.
A couple of my five-star favorite reads! The None Shall Sleep series by @elliemarney.bsky.social especially blew me away! Seriously, if you haven't read these, give them a shot!

yes, i DO love the picture @kayleerowena.com drew of me so much that I'm going to post it on everything I can. Respect on worm on a string artwork
Hello 📚💙! I'm an autistic author/book reviewer! I love fantasy, thrillers, and historical versions of both of those! I also enjoy sci-fi, horror, and historical settings! love books with Strange Happenings. Fun fact: I do often carrry around worms on a string to give away to people at events.
My halloween bookhaul from the @powells Powells After Dark event! You may have seen me as Luke Skywalker, wandering the shelves with my lightsaber. The last two are my mystery books! All in all, a good haul!

a book cover that reads "assassin's apprentice" with a picture of a castle next to it with the headline "Book Worth Reading." Quote says "I could hardly put it down, and the moment I was done, I rushed out to the bookstore to get the next two books in the series." Followed by Assassin's Apprentice and the signature of the reviewer, A. Crimin, as well as 5 stars.

social media tile - on a teal background, an image of a Kindle device with the cover of NONE SHALL SLEEP by Ellie Marney (pastel blue with a large bloody knife and black title)...some of the other tile text says "Kindle Monthly Deal! Now $1.99" in hot pink...oh, and in the bottom right corner, a little ghost
If you ever wanted my YA "Silence of the Lambs"-inspired serial killer thriller, NONE SHALL SLEEP, in digital then now is an excellent time because it costs less than 2 bucks US 😊🖤

a graphic with a shadowed hand ominously in the background, and the book William by Mason Coile in the center. Rated 3.5/5 stars, blurbs around the edges read: sci-fi haunted house. great Halloween read. fantastic twist. unreliable narrarator. dark, thrilling and more than a little horrifying. do you have to be human to be haunted?
It's time for some Halloween Horror!

Against a green-tinged background pic of NYC at night, the cover of Ellie Marney's new book NO ONE IS SAFE - in which a darkened figure walks toward the viewer down a teal-washed cobbled alley at night. The title/author name are above/below the image, in a popping pink gradient heavy text
Stoked to announce that I have a new book coming 10 Feb 2026!
💀 NO ONE IS SAFE 💀 is the first in a new series, pitched as Dexter meets The Bourne Identity in 1987 NYC. It's my adult crime debut, releasing through Thomas & Mercer, and it's up for pre-order right freaking now.
