We really enjoyed Ashleigh's - a queer, neurodivergent book blogger - review of Far Sector by NK Jemisin with art work by Jamal Campbell @pryce14!! How many stars would you give Far Sector? We give it 5/5 stars! Reposted from @rusereviews 📚 GRAPHIC NOVEL REVIEW 📚 4.5/5 ⭐️ Sojourner "Jo" Mullein is a Black bisexual woman from Brooklyn. She's also a newly chosen Green Lantern, sent far away from Earth to protect the City Enduring--a gigantic metropolis of over 20 billion people--by their request. The city has been peaceful for 500+ years after removing the citizens' ability to have emotions. Six months after her arrival, Jo must help solve the first murder to break the peace. The world-building here is great! There are three main races in the City Enduring: the keh-topli (sentient carnivorous plant-people), the @at (pronounced at-at, "artificial intelligence" folk), and the nah (humanoids with wings and a tail). The artist did an amazing job with the different types of peoples here, cityscapes, and other backgrounds. I love their use of color. I really enjoyed this! If you're a fan of sci-fi, noir/detective stories, or graphic novels in general, please pick this up (even if you don't know much about @DCComics or The Green Lantern). #FarSector #NKJemisin #TheGreenLantern #SistahScifi #QueerComics #bookblogging #bookrecommendations #bookrecs #bookreview #bookstagram #comics #comicsreview #dccomics #graphicnovel #graphicnovelreview #igbooks #igreads #readersofinsta #recentread (at Sistah Scifi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiqGNxvvy7K/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We don't choose what we are, but we choose what we do. - A Conjuring of Light by @veschwab ~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~ ☆What was your most recent read?☆ I just finished a reread of the Darker Shades of Magic trilogy. It's been a few years, and it's amazing how many details I can forget. I remember loving Lila, and that Kell thinks he's all tough, but is actually a cinnamon roll. The magic stone, the one that's one of the driving plot points of book one? I managed to completely forget that 🤦‍♀️ Vibes apparently drove me the first time! ~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~ #readersofinstagram #bookstagram #bookswelove #bookaholic #booklover #booklife #bookaddict #recentread #conjuringoflight #veschwab #shadesofmagic https://www.instagram.com/p/Cos3wAjAx_f/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

💫Recent Read: The Sacrifice by Rin Chipeco💫 ⭐An island oasis turns deadly when a terrifying legend threatens to kill off visitors one by one in this haunting novel from the highly acclaimed author of The Girl from the Well and the Bone Witch trilogy. Pristine beaches, lush greenery, and perfect weather, the island of Kisapmata would be the vacation destination...if not for the curse. The Philippine locals speak of it in hushed voices and refuse to step foot on the island. They know the lives it has claimed. They won't be next. A Hollywood film crew won't be dissuaded. Legend claims a Dreamer god sleeps, waiting to grant unimaginable powers in exchange for eight sacrifices. The producers are determined to document the evidence. And they convince Alon, a local teen, to be their guide. Within minutes of their arrival, a giant sinkhole appears, revealing a giant balete tree with a mummified corpse entwined in its gnarled branches. And the crew start seeing strange visions. Alon knows they are falling victim to the island's curse. If Alon can't convince them to leave, there is no telling who will survive. Or how much the Dreamer god will destroy... #thesacrifice #rinchupeco #recentreads #newrelease #bookblogger #bookblr #book #arcreader #bookblog #booksofinstagram #bookpicture #horrorbookstagram #horrorbooks #bookpics https://www.instagram.com/p/CjITgenLvXc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Recent Reads There’s been a couple of random books I’ve picked up this summer that weren’t related to the challenges. I had a few thoughts on these I wanted to get down. I’m also very much indecisive and struggling to plan out actual TBRs, but more on that later. House of Sky and Breath, Sarah J.

I am finally almost completely caught up with Disney's Twisted Tales. I just started the most recent release, What Once was Mine. What if Rapunzel's mother drank a potion from the wrong flower? I'm only a few pages in but they started this story off different from any of the others already. It's set today, in our world and time. A 16 year old girl has cancer and her brother is spending time with her in the hospital. She's obsessed with Rapunzel and Tangled but he can't watch the movie or read the book anymore. Instead, he makes up his own story and this is it. I thought it was a unique and creative way to start a twisted tale unlike the previous ones. Have you read this recent release? What are your thoughts on it? #amreading #reading #recentreads #newrelease #disneybooks #disneytwistedtales #rapunzel #tangled #yabooks #ya #yareads #yafantasy #yaauthorsofinstagram #lizbraswell #bookstagram #boojish #bookworm #booklover #bookrecs #readerlife #read #readersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #alexapostol #writeralexapostol https://www.instagram.com/p/CgHzudurPir/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Book Review: The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion
Rating: 3/5 stars
Review: I liked this book. I was due for a break from fantasy series and this provided a light romantic read. It was a charming book and I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The narration was kind of hard to get used to, but once I got accustomed to Don's way of speaking, it was easy to enjoy this book. I recommend this book to romance fans who maybe want a different perspective to read from.
