It's that time again for book covers! I think I have fewer than usual this year, believe it it not, since I read fewer books. Still have plenty though! I've said before and will say again that a book doesn't need an expensive, perfect cover. I would rather something basic or a stock photo than an AI cover. (If you don't believe me, check out my favorite books post that will come out soon!)...
I'm back with Part 2 of upcoming queer sci-fi/fantasy books in 2024! This time it's books releasing in the second half of the year. Mostly standalones, I think, but it's impossible to know when a lot of publishers/authors don't give any indication. Mostly adult, but a few YA. I also found some with trans, nonbinary, and asexual characters, which I don't come across quite as often, so I'm happy...
This is my sixth post about opening lines (obviously), and I thought I’d switch it up a bit by making it a quiz! See if you can correctly guess which opening line goes with which book, based on covers and titles. I tried to choose books with opening lines that aren’t too vague, but also...
![Bookish Tag Post: May Flowers Book Tag [Original]](https://metaphorsandmoonlight.com/wp-content/uploads/Bookish-Tag-Post-May-Flowers-Book-Tag-255x255.jpg)
I was looking for a book tag to do, and I think I saw one called "April Showers," but it's not April anymore, so I thought, what about "May Flowers"? Which didn't exist, as far as I could tell, so I made my own. Does this even count as a book tag? I don't know. I'm just gonna find five books I've read with floral covers and then talk about them. Because I'm tired, and it seems easy enough, but...
Every so often, a star falls and is given a human form, in order to banish the shadowy scourge that overtakes the lands. Sol is tired of his fellow stars dying for unappreciative humans and plans to eradicate them, but getting to know some of them on the journey has him questioning his...
Ok someone please tell me how to intro these posts, because I don't know anymore. I've had this blog for over eight years, I've used every update intro that exists. There are no more left. I have spent my free time this month playing Baldur's Gate 3! Again! I finished another playthrough. It's just such a cool game. I love all the characters. I've been posting about it a bunch on Tumblr. (If...
Guess what's back... back... back... Back again... 'gain... 'gain... It's queer sci-fi/fantasy books I'm excited for! That's what's back back back! I'm doing two parts again because I'll stick to books releasing in the first half of the year now and do another one of these halfway through the year. I'm also sticking to standalones or new series. So many great-sounding books coming out...
It's that time of year again! The time when I share all my favorite covers from the books I read! Covers aren't everything, obviously, but I do love a good one. So here are some good amazing ones! I'm not going to talk about every single individual cover, but I'll drop some thoughts I have here and...
A Divine's role is to guide souls into the afterlife, but Morgan, who started at 12 and is now 17, is losing himself, his own memories being replaced by those of the dead. When he gets the chance to escape for a bit with some new friends, he goes for it, but the decision to return or not won't be...
I've got some dance videos to share this week! These both have great dancing and are a lot of fun. The second is longer, but everyone looked like they were having so much fun that I just sat there happily watching the whole thing. Anyway, moving on to other topics! I've been playing a lot of games because sometimes they're the only thing I can focus on. So... I played First Bite: Bad Blood,...
