The Circus Infinite
Khan Wong
I can’t wait for everyone to join us! @cosmickhan’s The Circus Infinite is a glorious, levitating example of how an author, passionately writing from their community, can bring stories that fascinate, satisfy, and inspire all of us. I have so much more to say—see you soon! ✨🤹🏻♀️✨ https://twitter.com/caramalines/status/1503303263050944515

A Psalm for the Wild-Built: A Monk and Robot Book
Becky Chambers
I had the most affirming and magical discussion with Becky Chambers, courtesy of @torbooks and @SpookyBookshop. Beyond being brilliant, Becky is so warm and easy to talk to. And her novella, "A Psalm for the Wild-Built" is just that--a beautiful, wild, rejuvenating psalm. ✨💖✨

The Ship Who Sang
Anne McCaffrey
@jennlyonsauthor @adribbleofink I reread a lot of space opera, as well as some classics I never got to reading (Anne McCaffrey's "The Ship Who Sang"). I couldn't have pulled off the ending for Light From Uncommon Stars otherwise.

Under the Whispering Door
Tj Klune
@LVikkiml As for books out now--TJ Klune's Under the Whispering Door is beautiful, soul-healing magic. And Shelley Parker-Chan's She Who Became the Sun is so different from my work, which is wonderful because I can just fangirl over the brilliance.
