  8. This week’s Sapphic Book Bingo category features characters are hiding a secret.

    Maybe the character is keeping their true identity secret, hiding something from their past, or concealing something that could change their relationship with the other main character.

  11. CW: Asking for book recs - queer Chinese novels

    I just finished Iron Widow & Zachary Ying by Xiran Jay Zhao, The Empress of Salt And Fortune by Nghi Vo, and also the Mo Dao Zu Shi manhua (adapted from the Mo Xiang Tong Xiu novel).

    What those have in common is that they are all queer and all inspired by Imperial China to various degrees... and I'd love to read more!

    Does anybody have any recs of more queer books set in China or even better in some settings inspired by Imperial China (this includes xianxia for instance).

    I have to say that I'm not really looking for more danmei to read, I would prefer very queer stories by queer authors such as the Xiran Jay Zhao books, but I know that's a lot to ask for :blobOh:

  12. Let me share a real treat with you: While I was sick at home for Xmas, @clacksee here hooked me up with a free e-book: the prequel to Elliott Hay's Vigilauntie series. In which a group of knitting, tea drinking London grannies kicks ass (#RetirementGoals — but without the murder for me, pls). I was immediately hooked. 5/5 stars, I love a book centered around strong women, friendship, and community!

  13. Join us tomorrow at 6pm ET for an in-person reading and workshop with NC poet Jennifer Conlon! 🐸🌤️

    "Jennifer Conlon’s 'Taking to Water' is the most transformative collection of poems I’ve read. When Conlon’s speaker says 'let there be life in me / in my own beginning' we are given a home in this affirmation of queer resilience, where self-fulfillment can stretch the landscape until the landscape agrees. Taking to Water captures the search for the ways the world could make room for us, 'make room / for my body & all / that comes with it.' Conlon has given us a sharper, better lyric to inhabit and demand the world with." —C.T. Salazar, author of "Headless John the Baptist Hitchhiking"

    After the reading, participants will have the opportunity to create their own self-glossary, which can be vulnerable and celebratory ✨

    This free, in-person event has limited space, so please sign up through the link in our bio (or firestorm.coop/events/3095-tak)

  14. Next month we're hosting NC poet Jennifer Conlon for a reading and workshop! In their debut collection, "Taking to Water," Conlon celebrates the survival of trans and nonbinary kids who live in places that don't allow them to thrive, turning their gaze toward the natural world that catalyzes dreams of possibility, transformation, and safety.

    Using materials provided by the author, participants will be invited to write their own self-glossary—and optionally share it with others. This is a free, in-person event with limited space, so please sign up at firestorm.coop/products/20530-

  15. If the cover, the series name, the book's description, and the reviews didn't give it away … let me make it absolutely clear now: the ladies do the murdering.

  16. I is for Isandor

    Listen, I get to bend the rules a bit all right. Especially for my main series <3

    Isandor is a fantasy series of local politics and platonic love (messy friendships and mentors, family of blood and choice) all forming and breaking as residents try to defend the city and people they love from a ruthless empire and its allies within.
