My Stone Age fantasy Between Starfalls is in this sale, and right now, all signed paperbacks sold from me are 30% off.
The Betrayal of Thomas True (A.J. West) – A sort of whodunit set in Georgian London’s gay scene where Gabriel, the guard at Mother Clap's, must track down the rat who is feeding names to the Society for the Reformation of Manners and getting fellow Mollies murdered.
It's a fun thriller with a cute romance and some very hard to digest moments as we explore the underground Molly culture and 18th century London delving as far as a dash of folklore incarnate. It has its moments of queer solidarity, yet also our infighting and betrayal as suspects do what they can to avoid the noose.
Many lines struck a chord with me today, such as "It's innocence what kills you when yer different, not guilt" and "allies may shout the battlecry, but they'll never shed the blood."

Currently reading #Sistersong and it’s off to an incredible start.
But now I also want to know more about Britains old gods, and have no idea where to start.
Take a look at what I read in March and hope to read in April:

Last night, I finished reading "French Exit" by Patrick deWitt, a strange tragicomedy featuring compelling, unlikable characters. The book reminded me of Edith Wharton, J.D. Salinger, and Wes Anderson.
#StoryGraph March wrap-up. I haven’t rated all the books yet so Letter in the Scroll by Rabbi Jonathan Sacks doesn’t show up, but it is the highlight of the year so far. #Books #Reading #Bookstodon
My March reading wrap-up on Storygraph.
A bit of a light month reading-wise as I just didn't have the energy in the evenings. Hopefully April will see me back on track.

Hitting People in the Feels:
A quick roundup of some of the lovely reviews of The Gates of Polished Horn.
I'm really touched that this collection is working for readers. I was nervous to put some of these more serious and literary stories together with my usual blend of SFF and humor. But I guess it works. Thanks to @ilanderz for believing in the project!

Top Ten Tuesday: You'd Be A Fool To Skip...
Discussing the books I'd have been a fool to skip, including ones that I had to reread to appreciate properly, or read on in the series at least.

How do you feel about writing in books? #bookstodon
Morning world. Hope your day is going well.
Started reading Fourth Wing (The Empyrean Book 1) - fully agree - it's a cross between Harry Potter and Hunger Games.
If fantasy is your Jam (and given the news headlines recently it's not a bad spot to park your mind from time to time) give this series a read.
