Finished reading George Mann's "Star Wars: The High Republic: Tears Of The Nameless.".📖🚀⚔️.It was fine. Sure, a fast read. But still. fine. #books #reading #StarWars #ScienceFiction #SciFi #SpaceFantasy #BookTwitter

In his day job as a video game writer, Jakub Szamalek spends his time in fantastic realms. Which may be why his new novel, the technothriller "Inner Space," is decidedly grounded in reality. To find out what else it is, check out this exclusive Q&A. 📖🛰️

Finished reading Nnedi Okorafor's "Kabu-Kabu: Stories.".📖🖊️.Like her novels and novellas better, but there were a lot of really good #ShortStories in this collection. #books #reading #ShortStory

Andrea Gibson was one of my favorite poets in recent years.

In most trilogies, the 2nd book picks up where the 1st ends. But not @MosesOseUtomi's #fantasy series, "The Forever Desert." As he explains in this Q&A about the final book, "The Memory Of The Ogisi," they're intentionally spread apart by years. 📖🖊️

Started reading George Mann's "Star Wars: The High Republic: Tears Of The Nameless.".📖🚀⚔️.Mann is the least interesting of the #StarWarsTheHighRepublic writers, and this story, while entertaining so far, is a prime example of his okay-ness.

Started reading Alberto Ríos' "Every Sound Is Not A Wolf: Poems.".📖👂🐺.Hmmm. not terrible, but also not great. At least so far. Here's hoping it gets better. #books #reading #poems #poetry #BookTwitter #PoetryTwitter

Finished reading torrin a. greathouse's "Deed: Poems.".📖🖊️.Part of me wants them to stop feeling what prompts them to write such uncut #poetry; part of me wants many, many books of their super good #poems. #books @tagreathouse #BookTwitter #PoetryTwitter

Finished reading Lauren Stienstra's "The Beauty Of The End.".📖🧬👶.Going too personal in #SpeculativeFiction can sometimes backfire, but it worked well in this story of a global genetic / reproductive catastrophe. #books #reading @AmazonPub #BookTwitter

So, #Superman was good. Not great, not terrible, but good. Lot of it worked (Krypto, Lois, GL), but it never sparked the way the best Marvel movies do. That said, I'm not sorry I paid to see it theaters (though I wouldn't have been sorry had I waited for it to be on HBO either).

I'm really enjoying "Midnight Mass" on @netflix, but I hate when monster stories take place in realities where there are no monster stories. Like how no one in "The Walking Dead" has ever seen a zombie movie. Or, how no one in "Midnight Mass" has ever seen a vampire movie.

Sometimes I hear about something so weird that I think, "This is never going to work. But on the off chance it does. " Which is what I'm thinking after watching this trailer for @AdultSwim's "Rooster Fighter," an anime about a demon-hunting chicken.📺🐓👿.

Started reading torrin a. greathouse's "Deed: Poems.".📖🖊️.Super good so far. Unflinching, especially when being deeply personal. #books #reading #poems #poetry @tagreathouse @weslpress #BookTwitter #PoetryTwitter

By calling her new #ShortStory collection "Monsters And Other Tales Of Humanity," author Carla E. Dash is clearly indicating that these #ShortStories are warm and fuzzy and uplifting. To find out what they're really like, check out this Q&A. 📖🧌

Started reading Lauren Stienstra's "The Beauty Of The End.".📖🧬🪦.Putting a personal spin on a story of a global catastrophe is nothing new, but so far, this is doing a good job of it. #books #reading #ScienceFiction #SciFi #SpeculativeFiction @AmazonPub

Read Beth Revis' " Last Chance To Save The World" tonight. 📖🚀.Really, really enjoyed this semi-altruistic space "Oceans 11"-esque novella trilogy. #books #reading #ScienceFiction #SciFi @dawbooks @astrapublishing #BookTwitter

Finished reading Eileen Myles' "I Must Be Living Twice: New And Selected Poems.".📖🖊️.If this is all I get to read from the missing books their section of my bookcase, so be it. Super good stuff, as always. #books #poems #poetry #BookTwitter #PoetryTwitter

Started reading Beth Revis' "How To Steal A Galaxy.".📖🚀.Not as surprising as the 1st book, though only because the 1st book prepped me, but still just as engaging and fun. On to the 3rd and final book. #books #reading #ScienceFiction #SciFi #BookTwitter

Started reading Beth Revis' "Full Speed To A Crash Landing.".📖🚀.I can't decide if the main character is delightful or irritating, but I still enjoy her story. Er, the first part of her story. On to part 2. #books #reading #ScienceFiction #SciFi

Read Kemi Ashing-Giwa's "This World Is Not Yours" tonight. 📖🪐🦠.Excellent, inventive, and disturbing / freaky #SciFi story about a planet with a rather unique form of. hygiene?.#books #reading #ScienceFiction #horror @TorNightfire #BookTwitter
