I like books. I like beards. I'm Tom Bookbeard.

Okay, it's Monday so time for another push for ratings! Before the end of the year, can we get Zoo to 50, WBRG to 30, and October Music to 10? More for Boddicker would be killer too, but I like round numbers.

REVIEW: “What Marie Lu has cooked up in RED CITY is nothing short of alchemy itself. She takes the science of transformation and turns it into something new and delicious.” Full review 👇🏻 https://t.co/C0BGxPCF2p @TorDotComPub

Well, 25 sales and 411 free novellas out in the wild. As far as launch days go, this has been pretty stellar 🔥 Thanks so much to everyone for all the support. Your weekend is about to get a whole lot darker (or more fun depending on which you read first) 😂

“WHERE THE AXE IS BURIED by @raynayler is a future classic. It’s another essential book from an author who is building a reputation for saying the hard things in inventive, new, stylish, challenging, and remarkable ways.” Full review 👇🏻 https://t.co/q4RwutNDBe @orionbooks

When I decided to go the self-published route, I had a secret goal to get to 1,000 total ratings. 1.5yrs into this journey, I'm 1/4 of the way there! Thank you to every single one of you who've given these books a shot, whether you loved, liked, or disliked, I appreciate you!

This one differed from the series approach with three novellas instead of 10 short stories. The king of middle grade horror, the lord of one-more-chapter cliffhangers, and the master of twist endings. @FeiwelFriends https://t.co/Kmbdr2kqPY

REVIEW: “If Guillermo Del Toro adapted Jules Verne like an Agatha Christie mystery, you’d end up with something like THE SALT ORACLE by @raine_clouds. It’s oceanic in its scope and beauty, and like the sea, it left me in a state of awe.” Full review 👇🏻 https://t.co/NniinIuA92

Please find below my FanFiAddict book review for Legacy of the Brightwash by Krystle Matar a beautifully written dark gaslamp/flintlock fantasy. Brilliant, emotive, raw.

And finished! That, on the whole, was brilliant! Such a little gem of an anthology! Great job, guys @inknest, @williamjadams3 @RobSanders56 @BellaDunnWriter @OBoyleWrites @TomBookbeard @OdyllicThe @RASandpiper @DlawsonAuthor @LMD_Author @Stat_Mo1

I think these people on the council need to understand what violence is because pouring porridge on someone because they were being an arrogant ass is not it imo...🤷‍♀️ And somehow she's getting punished with that?! 😳
