I don't know about you but I think this cover of Mexican Gothic by @silviamg.bsky.social is absolutely STUNNING.
Do I need another copy? 🫣

I absolutely agre and think is a fantastic quality of the series. When they were getting released I thought the ending was the next book. They work really well as both series and standalone.

That sounds delightful and a wonderful granddaughter ☺️
With adulting and other external responsibilities i am no longer able to sit and read for hours on end. But this one sure will get read avidly.

I did squeal when I open the parcel. Only found out of its release a couple weeks ago so I am beyond looking forward to it ☺️

Well, when I started it I didn't know it was going to be a series and had the pleasure of discovering it as they were being announced. We will always have re-reads ☺️

Hahaha! I am guilty of going to pre-order a book that I had already pre-ordered, that means past you had very good taste ☺️

The only spiders I would like in my bookshelf are these ones. Problem is, then I become emotionally attached to them but hey ho, I'm looking forward to Kern's rivals πŸ’œ

Lord of Mysteries: The Clown by Cuttlefish That Loves Diving @yenpress.com
For what I've seen, the edition looks stunning and the translation seems fairly good. If you're watching the adaptation and love it but are very confused get the novel β™₯️β™₯️

Continuamos con Edward Carey, y estos dos seΓ±ores guapΓ­simos que repiten panel. Es el primer Celsius de Edward, escritor e ilustrador de libros muy peculiares que definitivamente merecen la pena.

Abriendo el #celsius2025 en jueves tenemos la mesa de @wtalabi.bsky.social presentada por @mangrii.bsky.social En ella hablan de literatura africana en general, el estado del gΓ©nero allΓ­ en particular, aderezado con humor y brillantes recomendaciones. Leed a Wole, es adictivo.

Absolutely disgusting.
Sadly, we knew this was coming but I'm still shocked it went through.

Son los ΓΊnicos pantalones "cortos" que uso, incluso un poco mΓ‘s ajustados en la rodilla. Sobre si son guiris o no... yo los veo comodΓ­simos y, a ver, llevo en guirilandia mΓ‘s de diez aΓ±os asΓ­ que no creo que pueda opinar jajaja

I cannot believe I am going to say this but in the evil website of doom, UK version, there are quite a few of Octavia Butler's books for 99p. As a daily deal, if you know what I mean πŸ€”
Just go and get them all.

Hunchback by Saou Ichikawa trans. Polly Barton
A very interesting, bold and sometimes outrageous book. Hunchback is an extraordinary, thrilling glimpse into the desire and darkness of a woman placed at humanity’s edge. A worthy read if only, to know her point of view.

Esta maΓ±ana he cogido el tren en Madrid, coincidiendo con la gente que va a trabajar y me ha sorprendido mucho el contraste con UK en que NADIE llevaba una bebida. Lo raro a esas horas es que nadie lleve un cafΓ©, te o bebida energΓ©tica.

I went to see Nickel Boys yesterday and fucking hell. I am not a fan of the first person camera view, because I end up mostly dizzy, but the movie itself was absolutely fantastic. Painfull, enraging and unfair but fantastic.

Se que hay mucha gente que prefiere tener un ictus antes de reconocer que quiΓ©n mΓ‘s y mejor describiΓ³ lo que estΓ‘ pasando ahora mismo en EEUU fue una mujer negra y feminista, pero es que solo hay que leerla para darse cuente de que otros autores ni se acercaron a lo que ella sΓ­ supo ver.
