Into fantasy romance with pirates and sea monsters and swashbuckling heros and heroins and meddling gods?

The book cover of Someone You Can Build A Nest In by John Wiswell. It is white title font against the background of red with a tentacled monster
Review: This is written by a man? A man named John ??? What Twilight Zone have I stepped into? This man not only wrote a lesbian love story better than most female author's l've read, but he also wrote strictly from the POV of feminism and did it with grace. John Wiswell, I am here to enlist in your army. I know that whatever war you're fighting, I agree, and you're inexplicably correct This book has everything. It's a macabre fairytale that's cozy, queer, weird as hell, funny, touching, deep and still has time for moments of gross and graphic horror. I'm sorry, was this written directly FOR me??? My mission statement: Read this book. It might just go on my favorite's shelf. The amount of tabs lead me to believe it will surely wind up there...
Finished the audiobook of SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN by @wiswell.bsky.social
The story and writing are LOVELY.
The narrator is *chef’s kiss*
10/10 must read.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This review by someone else sums up my feelings about it so perfectly:
Just picked up this sweet lady from @ccfinlay.bsky.social and @raecarson.bsky.social so she can enjoy her fur-ever home with @authorjlhenry.bsky.social. She's a little unsure about the cat carrier but seems eager to live her future princess lifestyle!
I am almost done reading SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN by John Wiswell
And it is LOVELY.
This review by someone else sums it up so perfectly that I have to add it to my post here.
What a stupid long week it’s been already.
Hey, it’s live. My first time to be in a tin-type! Such a complicated process. But fun. And, few people quoted in here— @paultremblay.bsky.social’s one. @todgoldberg.bsky.social’s another.
i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country
Your favorite book is the worst book someone else has ever read. The same goes for your own work; some will love it, some will hate it. You can’t control that. You only control the work you put in, so focus and keep at it.

Ahhh, self care
And not right next to the elevator 😆
New life goal is to just live on a cruise ship.
Writing books while in the middle of the sea uninterrupted by the noise of technology and the world.

Uhhh, hi! It's me, Bookshop.org, a place to buy books online where every purchase financially supports indie bookstores instead of some billionaire.
It’s wild to have two cats and have one of them be just so much more dumb.

"THE NIGHT BIRDS restores witches to their rightful place as grim, bloodthirsty queens of the horror genre - and cements Golden's already immensely impressive reputation as king of the horror-thriller writers. You won't be able to put it down!"

These are gorgeous covers 😍😍😍
Good news for folks who want to support local booksellers
