Book recs ask game: 42, 68 & 72?
Thank you for the ask!!!
#42 — a book that made you want to scream by the time you got to the end: there are actually so many books I've screamed at it's hard to pick. But I have to go with A Conjuring of Light (book 3 in the Shades of Magic books by V.E. Schwab). Won't spoil anything but that book (the whole series actually) DESTROYED me. I love it.
#68 — your favourite piece of classic literature: I haven't read that much classic literature yet actually (I intend to when I find time, but time happens to be peculiarly short in supply). But out of the few books that I've read, it's Jane Eyre. Amazing book.
#72 — a book with a gorgeous cover: fhdkdhdj this one's REALLY HARD because there's so many books out there with absolutely stunning covers. But if I had to pick it would be the Scholomance series by Naomi Novik. Like. Just look at them (!!!) They're so gorgeous!!! And they're great books as well.

hello!! this is perexcri because tumblr is dumb and doesn't let sideblogs send asks :) anyway!! for the book asks: 32, 38, 103, 129, and also 71!! i need some good lgtbq+ book recs and am always open to suggestions :] 💜💜💜
hello hello!!!! :)
32: your favorite nonfiction novel
i don’t read much nonfiction, but of what i’ve read, Know My Name by Chanel Miller stands out from the rest. not only was it really emotionally impactful, but also really informative about the criminal justice system (and its many failures to protect victims of sa). very very heavy though, and look into trigger warnings going into it!
38: your favorite series
this is a very hard question. i can’t… i can’t narrow it down. i’ll share a few.
Inkheart: a childhood favorite that i still revisit often. characters come out of books. it’s magical :)
Six of Crows: this duology is so popular for a reason. they’re just amazing. amazing plot, characters that will stick with you forever, and every romance is perfect (there is a queer relationship in here!). there is scheming, heists, magic, found family, revenge.
In the Woods (Dublin Murder Squad): i’ve only read two of these so far, but they’re detective books! they really pull you in and make you feel disoriented in the best way. they just totally transport you somewhere else.
The Foxhole Court (All for the Game): it feels insane and ridiculous to include this book on this list, but this book series was all i thought about for a week as i read them, and i still think about them all the time, three years later??? they’re ridiculous, it’s about a made up sport and the mafia, it’s so outside of what i usually read, and yet i was captivated. and i’m not alone, there’s like a very small dedicated following to the series, it’s like a little cult classic. it’s self-published so they’re not extremely polished, but it’s not too bad at all. i got them all as ebooks for like $5, but i loved them so much, i bought them all in print too. a bunch of crazy stuff happens, definitely check tw if needed! there’s also an extreeeeeemely slow burn queer romance in here, but like, it’s slooow.
103: a book that deals with heavy topics
Neverworld Wake is one of my favorites. it’s kind of like dealing with grief in a limbo time loop.
Sadie was a devastating book, about big sister’s love for her little sister, and made me sob. check out trigger warnings as needed!
also, i don’t own this one, but My Dark Vanessa by Kate Elizabeth Russell. this book isn’t for everyone, but it’s an exploration of csa and grooming from a teacher, with flashes forward to the narrator’s experience confronting what she thought to know to be true about that relationship within a 2017 context when that teacher has been accused of abuse. check out trigger warnings as needed.
129: a book with beautiful prose
The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender. beautiful but definitely check out trigger warnings!
71: your favorite LGBTQ+ fiction
i’m going to give you lots of recs bc it seems like you want a lot, and i have read a lot :)
In Other Lands: one of my favorite books of all time. silly YA fantasy, bi mc, amazing characters that stick with you.
Red, White & Royal Blue: goofy little son of the president x prince of england romance
Autoboyography: kinda insta-lovey, but explores a lot of IH and religious homophobia (love interest is mormon)
Charm Offensive: it’s like the BACHELOR, but he’s ANXIOUS, and he doesn’t fall for any of the CONTESTANTS, but rather a GUY CREW MEMBER with DEPRESSION. 5/5, amazing.
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe: a classic!!! a couple teens figuring things out.
A Dowry of Blood: not my favorite, but it’s Dracula and his brides, it’s queer and poly.
Song of Achilles: a classic!!!! the fall of troy and everything that came before that.
Wolfsong: it’s a whole series about gay werewolves. what more can you ask for??
The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue: not my favorite, but fun. an adventure!!!
Every Heart a Doorway: first in a series of novellas, so much great rep. people find doors to other worlds that they slip into, but the story picks up once they’re back and homesick.
I’ll Give You the Sun: one of those like… early queer books that i read before i knew i was queer, but it made me feel so much at the time. permanently imprinted in my brain.
Fence: there are graphic novels, and then a couple novels. it’s fencing at a boarding school, and everyone is so so so gay. the novels are hilarious too, written by the same author as In Other Lands.
some books that i don’t own and didn’t love, but were pretty good: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid, Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzales, Perfect on Paper by Sophie Gonzales (explores biphobia and attachment styles, which was really interesting!), History Is All You Left Me by Adam Silvera (oh my GOD this book made me sob, it’s so much heavy grief), She Drives Me Crazy by Kelly Quindlen (fake dating), Her Name in the Sky by Kelly Quindlen (wlw but a lot of IH and religious homophobia)
i’ve read more that were just so-so, and have a ton of unread queer books, so if you want more ideas, let me know! i have a lot more i can give you, just without my personal stamp of approval :)

How about 1, 29, 55, & 126 for the book rec ask game.
omg. why did my answer turn out so long!?! ridiculous.
but thanks for asking, dot!!! thanks for letting me play. :)
1. a book that is close to your heart
Little Women and Tuesdays with Morie.
i grew up on the 90s version of the Little Women movie, which led me to read the book for the first time in 7th or 8th grade. i’ve read it several times since and love how much it makes me care about all four March sisters. i used to have more of a temper like Jo and long for nice things like Amy. and i thought it was nice how, as they get older, they didn’t lose who they are but they did get a little softer around the edges. i think even as a kid, that gave me hope.
Tuesdays with Morie is another one i first read when i was pretty young (high school not middle school) and have several times since. there are some “zen” messages i still carry with me. here’s a quote as an example: “the culture we have does not make people feel good about themselves. and you have to be strong enough to say if the culture doesn't work, don't buy it.”
honorable mention: Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with the Institution of Marriage. do i have that subtitle right? it’s something like that. it’s one of the first books i read that weaves social science research into a more personal narrative, and i really enjoyed that. some parts of this book stuck out to me enough to use as a framework when writing the ceremony for my wedding (friend officiated). but that’s personal enough i’ll keep the details to myself.
29. your favourite YA novel
for quite a while, YA was all i read. so i feel like i should have a long list that i’m struggling to choose from. but most YA leaves me thinking, “great idea, but B- on the execution.” (saying that makes me feel like a snob but whatever, it’s true).
i will stand by the first book in the Hunger Games series being great and worth the hype. i read it again a year or two ago and it is very well crafted. sharp characterization, great pacing, background information weaved throughout in just the right way. too bad the later books didn’t keep up.
Elanor & Park was one a read after hearing about it a million times and worried it wouldn’t live up to the hype. i don’t remember it that well now, but i remember liking it even more than i hoped it would. one of the characters with poverty and abuse and i thought it tackled those issues in a believable, not-at-all-cheap-or-gimmicky way.
i read The Spectacular Now because i really liked the movie. and while the main character drives you crazy after a while, i think that’s kinda the point. he’s a mess and needs to learn about growing up and being considerate of others. similar to Elanor & Park, i thought this book handled teenagers going through rough stuff in a believable way.
55. a book with a satisfying ending
is it weird to say Gone Girl? the ending was frustrating for me the first time i read it, i guess because i wanted something happier. but it’s satisfying in that, upon second read, i accepted that the author knows her characters better than i do and she wrote an ending that made perfect sense for how unhinged and unhealthy they are.
i also have to admit that as i get older, i understand Amy’s resentments more and believe Nick’s bullshit less. so even though Amy’s totally off her rocker and should, logically speaking, be in jail, i’m glad Nick doesn’t get a normal happy ending.
it’s just so messed up its satisfying, you know?
126. your favourite spring read
interesting and timely question! unfortunately, i don’t tend to have seasonal reading habits. can i tell you what my dad’s answer would be? he likes a book called Vipers’ Tangle (google just told me it’s sometimes called The Knot of Vipers since it’s originally written in…. french, maybe? it’s from the 50s). its set around Easter, so…. i’ve tried to read it around Easter too, but i haven’t managed to get very far with it.
if i had to choose something i’ve personally read…. maybe something by Brene Brown. ya know, non-fiction stuff about how vulnerability is actually bravery and people are built for deep connections and we have to be willing to take a little emotional risk to make deep connections happen. that sounds good for spring, right? growth!!

I read half of it, but I just couldn't continue.
15. a book rec you really enjoyed
Omg, hmmm, one that comes to mind is "Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe"!

For the Book Recs Ask Game: 8, 18, 19, & 107! <3
Hi Mia! Thank you for sending an ask!
8. a book you finished in one sitting
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut, it's the one that comes to mind first.
18. your least favorite book ever
Probably The Woman in the Window by AJ Flynn, it was a huge dissapointment.
19. a book that put you in a reading slump
The Dreamcatcher by Stephen King, it was too slow for me and I just couldn't get into it, but I didn't want to DFI so I just stopped reading all together for like 3 years.
107. your favourite book in a different language
Technically since english isn't my first language every book I've read in english can fit here right? the first one that's coming to mind is The Song of Achilles, but that's probably because I've been thinking about that book all day today.

tag meme for posting your favorite 9 books read in 2023
Thank you @meadowlarkx! I'm loving getting to know everyone's book recs from last year.
Tagging with no pressure @sallysavestheday, @mayfriend, @theghostinthemargins, @thalion71, @247reader, @melestasflight, @nablah, @camille-lachenille, @m-b-w, and anyone who'd like to share their recs!
I took the liberty of writing a little about every book under the cut, because it is 22:30 and I am passionate about these books.
Lavinia, Ursula le Guin. It's le Guin, do I have to say it? I really have, because the depths of study on ancient animism in the Italian countryside is extraordinarily well researched, and even aside from the ambitious narrative approach of Lavinia speaking with Aeneas, the study that went into it is one of the most respectful and involving approaches to ancient spirituality I have read.
The Fury is Silvina Ocampo's recently translated short-story compilation! Whole-heartedly recommend any of her short works, which I understand are published with different titles. Reading anything of hers feels like the pervasive grey silence of staying awake till four a.m. as you consider all the familiar people and strangers you have known and reconcile with the strain of incurable isolation and cruelty present in human nature. Life, Silvina tells you, is sharpened and not redeemed by the possibility of understanding. You are not safe from Silvina Ocampo's studies in unsettling mundanity; no one, Silvina warns, is ever safe within themselves. But at least Buenos Aires is very beautiful, and so are all her deliciously malicious women.
The Fée et Tendres Automates (Béatrice Tillier-Téby) graphic book series starts with this book, about Jam, a young man who is not so young, surviving in a dystopic Victorian society while trying to reunite with the sentient mannequin he's in love with...it is moving, it is bold, it has class warfare and magic and a mad scientist, it is gorgeously written and illustrated.
I read The Blue Castle (L. M. Montgomery). Loved the Blue Castle. 'A book about being in your twenties' is a bad summary, but technically not wrong?
I wavered on putting on Claúdia Andrade's short-story collection 'Quarter Finals and Other Stories', because it's not translated, but it was my favourite book of the year, in many ways! An incisive and imaginative writer with a delightfully chilly grasp on human nature. I find myself thinking about the scenes she invokes several times a week. For instance, I think all dying old women should be cursed to speak the truth of every secret they ever knew.
Lords and Ladies was a lot of fun! Also reread Wyrd Sisters. Every years Granny Ogg grows hotter wait who said that.
The Fox (D. H. Lawrence) is about cottage-core lesbians, but like, detestable cottage-core lesbians in post-war England. It's terrific psychological work - I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. The last paragraphs haunts me. Will never trust seaweed metaphors again.
The Painter of Birds (Lídia Jorge) is translated. I recommend it. I recommend it a normal amount. I might be lobbying Lídia Jorge for a Nobel, idk. In all seriousness - she is an absolute powerhouse with a career of profound, invasive, masterful works, she's got most Portuguese language and French awards, do get a Nobel while she's still kicking. God!! This book!!!!
What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours (Helen Oyeyemi) is like nothing else. Ruiz Zábron married Angela Carter and then had an affair with Olga Tokarczuk? But it's queer and it's not white and unapologetic about being undefinable speculative fiction. Still chewing on it. Wonderful, wonderful, terrific.

hell, while we're on the subject!
i read a lot. like, i get through 15-30 books in a month depending on life circumstances. i'm wanting to get back to this blog, but not quite up for the horny stuff yet, so let's swap book recs:
rec me a book that knocked your socks off, and/or:
ask me to rec a book based on what you usually like :)
i like sci fi, cli fi, mysteries/thrillers, courtroom dramas, and occasionally coming-of-age novels (adult ones, not big on YA lately).
most recent read: After On by Rob Reid (4.5/5)
currently reading: The Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson (5/5 so far!)

10, 20, 50, 51, 124 for the book rec asks! (if you can answer all these xD)
Thank you so much for the ask!!
#10 — a book that got you through something: I read the Lockwood and Co series (by Jonathan Stroud) in 2020 during the first lockdowns — they're amazing books.
Can't think of any for #20 but there must be a few
#50 — a book that made you cry a LOT — I don't usually cry when I read at all but there was this one book that I read when I was younger called Emily and Patch by Jessie Williams. For the life of me I could never remember the title (I had to look it up just now for the ask) and it isn't even the saddest book I've read but I cried BUCKETS when I read it. And then I reread it and cried AGAIN. It's the only book I remember crying about.
#51 — a book that you found underwhelming: Book of Night by Holly Black. Perfectly decent book but I genuinely don't get the hype.
#124 — the book you're currently reading: The Book of Lost Tales (Part 1) lol. I've low-key started obsessing over Ulmo's magic car and the poetry in some of the commentaries is excellent (Mar Vanwa Tyaliéva my beloved <3)

1 & 8 for the book recs please!!
hello hello!!! :)
1: a book that is close to your heart
hehe me and my silly romance books. the whole Princess Diaries book series was such a staple in my life when i was much younger, i read and reread these. still of the opinion that the books are far superior to the movies.
and You Deserve Each Other is one of my favorite adult romances. it’s like second chances, an engaged couple that kind of fell out of love with each other, but they find their way back once they start reconnecting and being silly with each other. very very funny!
8: a book you finished in one sitting
i have a novella for this one! Every Heart a Doorway. this book (and series of novellas in the same universe) has amazing rep, and are one of those books that really captures the feeling of homesickness, which can be comforting to read if you’re struggling with that yourself :)

Nine ten books
thank you to @rmd-writes who tagged me (ages ago) in this... not sure you knew what you were going to unleash when you did that but here we are. 😅
I think the prompt for this is just list nine favorite books, but because I can't be normal about books and my taurus energy is strong today... I'm breaking up these book recs into categories, adding visuals, and also adding a tenth book to make it an even number. Cheers!
Books #1 & #2 (Nonfiction)
Ace by Angela Chen - Hello! Your friendly neighborhood asexual over here recommending that everybody read this book! It's such a good exploration of what it's like to navigate the world as an ace person and also the vast spectrum involved within asexuality.
Yoke by Jessamyn Stanley - Even if you've never done a single yoga pose in your life, I think you can gain something from this book. It's not a how-to yoga guide, but instead essays about her relationship to yoga, cultural appropriation within the community, fatness, colonization, capitalism, etc. It's fantastic and funny!
Books #3 & #4 (Excellent on Audio)
Six Stories by Matt Wesolowski - This fiction book (and the following books in the series) follows an investigative journalist who has a true crime podcast. The audiobook is full cast and it feels like you're following along to an actual podcast, but one you know you'll get a conclusion to. Highly recommend all of the books in this series on audio if you enjoy mystery/thrillers.
Where to Begin by Cleo Wade - The author narrates the audio version of this and her voice is like a balm to the soul. It feels a little bit like she’s a counselor guiding you through a thoughtful meditation. It’s short but it packs a punch.
Books #5 & #6 (Seasonally Appropriate)
Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas - This is a YA book following a young trans boy, Yadiel, who wants to prove to his family that he's truly a brujo and attempts to summon the ghost of a murdered family member. Except he accidentally summons a classmate who has no idea how he died. Adventure and mystery ensues!
The Changeling by Victor Lavalle - I've always loved the folklore surrounding changelings, but Lavalle's writing just takes this to another level. This is set in NYC and he somehow managed to make the city feel like a character in itself. Super chilling, creepy read.
Books #7 & 8 (Graphic Novels)
I Hate Fairyland by Skottie Young - This is a 4 volume series about a little girl named Gertrude who is whisked away to Fairyland, where she's told she must go on a quest to find the key to unlock the door back to her world. Turns out she sucks at quests and 30 years pass and she still hasn't found the key. Now she's stuck in the body of a six year old and just murders everything she comes across. The contrast of bright, happy colors vs. the murderous, jaded Gertrude is hilarious and wonderful.
The Magic Fish by Trung Le Nguyen - This is a standalone graphic novel following Tien, the son of Vietnamese immigrants, as he navigates how to come out to his parents. The art in this is wonderful and the use of color to define when we're in the past, the present, or a fairy tale was done so beautifully. A gorgeous read!
Books #9 & #10 (Books from Favorite Authors I Will Read Anything From)
A Psalm for the Wild Built by Becky Chambers - This book/series follows a tea monk who encounters a robot looking for the answer to the question, "what do people need?" It's cozy and comforting. I've read every Becky Chambers book published and will continue to do so. The way she weaves hope into everything she writes is phenomenal.
The Raven Boys by Maggie Steifvater - This series owns my soul. I don't even know how to pitch this other than it has a magical forest, a found family, the slowest of slow burn queer love, and Maggie Steifvater's atmospheric writing. Maggie is another author that I will read pretty much anything from (the werewolves weren't my cup of tea so I can't claim to have read all her books).
OPEN TAG to anyone who wants to list off some book recs/fave books. Tag me so I can get some new recs!! also no pressure tagging: @lemonlyman-dotcom @mikibwrites @alrightbuckaroo @reasonandfaithinharmony

For comic recs:
Prowl (IDW1)
For Prowl
The ABC Murders by Agatha Christie
A murder mystery featuring an arrogant serial killer that is killing victims in alphabetical order sounds right up Prowl’s alley.
For You
The Department of Truth vol. 1: The End of the World by James Tynion IV
If you’re a fan of Prowl I feel like you may also be a fan of this series about a shady government agency that’s job is to keep conspiracy theories from getting out of hand.
#I am aware that you novafire specifically may not be a fan of horror…#but I DO read a lot of horror and I think the intersection between prowl fans and horror fans would enjoy department of truth#sorry#AGATHA CHRISTIE on the other hand is the most popular author of all time so. you can’t go wrong at least trying a couple of her books haha#optimist.txt#comic recs#ask games#asks
