Oda urgente a lo tangible
Me quedo a escuchar la brisa debajo de un flamboyán. Tengo un pedazo de pan y un mendrugo en la camisa. No tengo pena ni prisa. No tengo melancolía. No tengo esa cercanía de la patria ni tengo amo, pero sí tengo un reclamo: una #Cuba tuya y mía. #DPEPDPE

Family isn’t always blood, these two prove that! (Also how cute is elle fanning, stunning!). i know Bradley Cooper seems to rub people the wrong way but if he were a bad dude Pedro wouldn’t be friends with him so keep that in mind when you hear those rumors.

booklr, arise!! the porch light is lit, a writer calls for aid!!
i need your best ~haunted house~ book recs, please! adult books only (no YA or middle grade), the weirder and more fucked up the better, bonus points for funny, more bonus points for queer. super niche bonus points if haunted house in space or with weird aliens and/or fungus involved somehow (haunted spaceships/stations probably count).
i've already got THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE and JUST LIKE HOME on my list, and i'm throwing LEECH on there for good measure! i've read MEXICAN GOTHIC, too.
thanks for playing!! looking forward to your recs!!

book recs? My fav books are trc, aftg, soc, shadowhunters/riordanverse etc and the likes (so basically the most basic literature taste known to man) thanks!
well I enjoy all of those and trc is my fav series so will give you a couple of my main fantasy recs along those lines or not dissimilar and throw in one of my fav thrillers which is very gay and explores dark themes for aftg adjacent rep, and then another suspense book i love. I sort of went with books i could draw some type of lines of comparison to at least one of the books you mentioned.
•The Diviners series by Libba Bray — this is my go to ya fantasy rec these days, it’s historical urban fantasy with some horror and mystery elements. It’s set in 1920’s New York, book one opens focusing mainly on Evie and a specific case of a ghost serial killer but introduces other chars, after the first book it becomes more about an ensemble cast of Diviners who have different supernatural powers and their dynamics, also the main antagonist is bigotry and hate which I’m aware is a concept that can be done poorly in fantasy and I won’t pretend every beat of it is flawless but it is my favorite example of a fantasy series take on that concept that I’ve read. More importantly stunning character work I especially adore the female chars among the diviners Evie Theta and Ling, Ling is one of the most special characters ever and these books should be worth reading because of her INTP canon ace lesbian with autistic swag realness alone. 
I definitely would recommend it to TID/TLH fans for the historical setting and atmosphere as well as some of the playing with man vs machine + to TRC/TDT fans for the characterization and also the second book is largely about Henry and Ling learning about their dream powers and developing a friendship through this and also Ling has a narrative foil in dreamspace she’s gay with just think some of those idea would resonate with trcers + to SoC fans for the ensemble dynamics. 
•The Gemma Doyle trilogy by Libba Bray
This is one I used to describe to people as The Gangsey all girls au set in Victorian London and that’s not fully accurate but it works enough to be a pitch, but basically it’s about this group of four girls who go to a boarding school together and discover a sort of parallel world where they can bee free and realize their ambitions detached from society, but in the real world they’ve awakened horrors they must deal with too. I need to reread this one but it was deeply formative, if you love messy complicated female friendship dynamics and paranormal/mystical plots that are just creepy enough this is for you. Also my favorite character in it is a gay blonde mean girl character who is ambitious and wants autonomy above all else but does also love her friends fiercely Felicity Worthington you will always be famous <3 if you enjoy Jessamine Lovelace and Grace Blackthorn from TSC she has strong parallels to both those chars imo and is better written/handled arc wise. But I will tell you that the other wlw char in the book who is her love interest dies there is byg, just so you no one gets mad at me for that. But still very worth the read imo. 
•The Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy by Laini Taylor
this series is a mix of urban fantasy and high fantasy, the first book is set mainly in Prague but large parts of the other books take place in a fantasy world called Eretz so there is a fun parallel worlds element. But it’s about Karou who is one of theee protagonists of the 2010s yet got paid dust justice for my girl, and she’s an art student in Prague who was raised by a family of monsters (chimeara), her surrogate father is Brimstone and he has a business of selling wishes for teeth that Karou sometimes helps with but is frustrated that she isn’t allowed to know why or what they’re for. Karou’s dynamics with the chimearas and with her best friends Zuzana who is also a wonderful character and inspo for my letterboxd url rabidfairy09, are really lovely and the prose is so beautiful… but the story really takes off when the love interest Akiva is introduced I won’t go into details about that because spoilers, but they have one of my absolute favorite romances in the genre that does subvert and play with those paranormal forbidden star crossed romance tropes in ways I think are quite fascinating. Books 2 and 3 are more complicated to describe there is an essential conflict between chimeras or devils vs angels in this world so there’s your modern tsc connection, and very lyrical prose although I find Lainis even lusher and more elegant than trc prose. 
• Sawkill Girls by Clara Legrand 
Ya horror book that I remember reading over the summer in high school and I think it’s a good summer read tonally, part of the plot is one of those stranded on an island survival stories but it’s less intense than like Yellowjackets (no cannibalism), I don’t actually have much to sell about the plot I just enjoyed the vibes and also there are lesbians one of whom is an ambitious driven abuse survivor who had an arc I remember really liking.
•Wild Beauty by Anna-Marie Mclemore I actually really love all the books by her I’ve read but I think this is a great one to start with. Basically there are multiple generations of women who are all witches living together (300 fox way vibes), and Estella has several cousins and she and them are all in love with the same woman who is the daughter of the man who owns the estate, and there’s a thing where boys and this family keep disappearing and then one of them shows up and resulting drama. The main romance is m/f but like all the female chars being bi, it is a good romance from my memory but the main event is the familial dynamics, the main character Estella’s arc around dealing with her internalized self hatred and a lot of anti colonial themes those anti colonial themes and themes of multigenerational trauma are very relevant in all the Mclemore I’ve read so yes, very much would read her starting with this book. Also very gorgeous prose as is in all her magical realism stuff. 
•this one is already quite popular on tumblr so you may have read it but The Folk of the Air series by Holly Black, if you enjoy the cutthroat gang in SoC and that high fantasy world I think you would enjoy it I also get some Zoya vibes as well as Kaz vibes from Jude the main heroine. Won’t bother with detailed description because again, very popular books. 
•Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire
basically a series of portal fantasies or fairytales for adults, they are all novellas and it’s an ongoing series following several different chars not all of whom appear in each book. But I enjoy them and I think if you like Riordanverse this is like an adult fantasy take on similar concepts in a way, even though it’s not directly mythology based.
•The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir
This is the other tumblr popular series on the list and has a good amount of overlap with trc/aftg/soc fans so will only give the brief pitch that it’s adult sci fantasy and about lesbian necromancers in space. You will be very confused at least some of the time but it is worth it, trust me. 
•Black Iris by Leah Raeder 
new adult psychological thriller with a sapphic romance that slaps so hard. Delaney Keatings is one of my favorite unreliable narrators and also just an A+ character, there’s not a lot I can say about the actual plot because a lot of it is psychological but will give one other plot hint: vigilantes. Definitely look up trigger warnings before reading this there’s a lot about homophobia and also references to sexual violence, drug use a lot more it’s very in line with Aftg in terms of like, grittiness in that regard. Do highly recommend. 
•Dare Me by Megan Abbott 
like with Mclemore I love this author in general and would recommend everything I’ve read by her but this was my first book of hers so it’s a good introduction, and also a lot of it is about girls on a cheer team having homoerotic psychosexual dynamics as well as the murder, so it’s also in line with aftg thematically in that way. gay sports media. 
There are a lot of others but I don’t want to make this list ridiculously long so… here are some recs <3 thank you so much anon for letting me ramble and I hope you like them!

Check out these books for some summer reading! Here are just a few of the great books dropping in July.
As always, check under the cut for more on each~
The Society for Soulless Girls by Lauren Steven is a sapphic YA retelling of Jekyll & Hyde with some dark academia thrown in! The whole aesthetic of this book seems great!
What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher is also a retelling! But this one is adult, and adapts Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher. As a big Poe fan I'm looking forward to seeing what Kingfisher does with this! That's also just such a striking cover it makes me need to hold it.
The Daughter of Doctor Moreau by Silvia Moreno-Garcia has the Mexican Gothic author taking a spin at the story of Doctor Moreau and his unethical, somewhat magical experiments. I've always had sort of a strange fascination with Moreau, and I'm sure Moreno-Garcia's lush and haunting writing is going to make this a whole experience.
Just Like Home by Sarah Gailey is the first non-retelling or adaptation on this list! This is a haunted house story of complicated, tainted love for killers, and if that wouldn't be enough to get you excited, this is by the fabulous couldnt't-miss-to-save-their-life Sarah Gailey!
Youngblood by Sasha Laurens is a sapphic vampire story of social pressure, mystery, and friends-to-enemies-to-lovers! It's also one of the few books on this list I've already read- and the recipient of one of the two 5-star ratings I've actually given this month!
A Strange and Stubborn Endurance by Foz Meadows is another I've already gotten to read! This is a queer (mlm) romance between two princes in an arranged marriage, dealing with no just the newness of each other and their relationship, but assassination attempts and one of their slow healing from the trauma of assault. This is heavy at times, but if you want good communication and a healthy relationship, look no further.
Violet Made of Thorns by Gina Chen could easily fit into the "retellings" category, but it doesn't actually retell one single thing. This is a dark, romantic fantasy inspired by multiple fairytales, creating a new one altogether. If you like the morally gray and seeking power girl and dynamics similar to the in The Cruel Prince, you'll probably fun with this!
The Witchery by S. Isabelle is a YA debut with 6 witchy main characters setting out to fight monstrous Wolves. This is a diverse fantasy full of secrets and hefty consequences.

Down the TBR Hole 6
Hello readers! I am happy to see how many people loved the bookmark I created yesterday. It already has 10 downloads. I have a couple more that I might just throw up on a future Sunday Post. Essentially, you go through 5 to 10 books per post (I usually do 8) on your Want to Read shelf on Goodreads and purge all the ones you know you won’t be getting to anytime soon. If you want to see a more…
