“B -A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.”

as someone who is watching interview with the vampire having never read the book or watched the movie it is my god-given right to come up with really silly theories that i will wholeheartedly believed until the show proves me wrong. anyway my most recent one is that lestat can turn into a bat but he hasn’t mentioned this to louis because he thinks it’s embarrassing

My #1 post of 2022

The other day one of my friends was like “Where on earth do you hear about all the books you read?” and I’m honestly trying to think about that because I don’t really pay attention to Booktube, Booktok, Book Twitter, or Bookstagram, only occasionally dip back into book blogging, and mostly use Goodreads as a place to track books I want to read or have read rather than searching for recommendations, so I’m trying to make a list of the places I hear about books from besides a few trusted social media mutuals.

Tor.com is one major place I hear about science fiction and fantasy books–they do deal announcements, cover reveals, lists of new releases, and reviews, as well as columns reviewing backlist work. I really like “The Book Queered Me,” for instance, which is people looking back on books that were important to their understand of identity. 

The Book Smugglers isn’t really that active anymore, but they reviewed science fiction and fantasy media, as well as publishing essays and short fiction and I read them religiously for a long time.

Book Riot I read occasionally and they publish bookish news and essays. I forgot I was subscribed to their LGBTQ+ book newsletter for a while and went through the emails I’d been sent earlier this week and that particular newsletter is nice because it highlights a couple books and does a round-up of recent news about queer books.

Austraddle’s book section, especially the Rainbow Reading column, does reviews, interviews, and news related to queer books, mostly queer women. It’s helpful for non-SFF stuff because I’m usually very up-to-date on news in the science fiction and fantasy world but they cover poetry, nonfiction, romance, etc.

We Need Diverse Books is a great resources, of course, and I really like the interviews they do with authors of recent releases.

LGBTQ Reads is an invaluable resource for queer literature–new release highlights, author interviews, lists of books by representation or age/genre if you’re looking for something specific.

Electric Literature is where I hear about more adult lit fic/nonfiction stuff, they also have a column called Novel Gazing in which people write about books that have impacted them and I find that really interesting. They also publish poetry and short fiction but I haven’t read much of that.

The Lesbrary does reviews of books about lesbian and bisexual women, as well as round-ups of new releases. Good resource for keeping up with sapphic books.

Rich in Color reads and reviews diverse YA books and is a good place to keep up with books by authors of color.

So a friend of mine gave me two Wanda funko pops for Christmas. I decided to customize them to look more she does in the current 2023 comic run than in the films. This is my first time painting funko pops and honestly it was kind of fun to do

1 and 33 :)

1. How has DC/Marvel/publishing company wronged you, specifically?

all of my fave chars having less than 300 appearances :// actually i think it might be less than 200, i’ll have to double check. would KILL to have one of my ultimate faves be someone with over a thousand appearances to parse through i know it would be a headache but i’m a nerd

33. Which character that deserves a solo didn’t get one?

SO MANY…… gonna go w karma she’s so complex and underrated but she’s always part of a team dynamic and/or being written badly. HMMM the part of her life when she appeared in x force with pink hair and two girlfriends (platonic or romantic? the world will never know!) and she looked like she was the freest she’s ever been in her life that would be interesting

[bagofbonesmp3]

do you have a kwannon reading list?

no i haven't made one but user karmamirages has ! here's the link
