I started my subscription in June ‘22. So yes, this is 4 yrs in the making. Look at this stack! I’m 6’1”. It matches my height. Also, there’s 11 books missing b/c they’re out on loan. So technically, it’s much taller! I can’t recommend them enough & can’t see a life w/o them.27 Jul 2026 01:14 +0000at://did:plc:dltblboozpezanf2khhu76jo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrlpsvsffs2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/briancarneywrites.bsky.social/post/3mr327nwszc2eGIRLS IN THE GRAVEYARD COVER REVEAL!

It’s been a strange month & on top of that I’ve worked every day except last Saturday when I took time off to attend the Merrimack Valley Halloween Book Festival. It’s the only thing that has kept me connected to my favorite month. #Books24 Oct 2025 01:12 +0000at://did:plc:dltblboozpezanf2khhu76jo/app.bsky.feed.post/3m3voyjlias26https://bsky.app/profile/briancarneywrites.bsky.social/post/3m2yblp2mqk23Haven’t had much time to read the last couple months, but what I’ve been able to, they’ve all been 5⭐️ books. I don’t know how I’ve been so lucky or been on such a win streak, but I’m not complaining. In fact, I’m loving it! Have you read any of these? If not, do so! #bookrecommendations #bookrecs12 Oct 2025 08:25 +0000at://did:plc:dltblboozpezanf2khhu76jo/app.bsky.feed.post/3m2yblp2mqk23https://bsky.app/profile/briancarneywrites.bsky.social/post/3m2teoy3zkk2lYes, what waking up from having a fever dream about the psychological horror story you’ve been thinking about for months that has finally come together and is ready to be written looks like.

Then I rolled over in bed & saw Gemma sitting in the window enjoying the moment like me. I love moments like this. #Autumn #Sunday #Vibes28 Sep 2025 10:51 +0000at://did:plc:dltblboozpezanf2khhu76jo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lzvd7z42ck25https://bsky.app/profile/briancarneywrites.bsky.social/post/3lzphdniqnk2qOkay Algorithm, connect me with: 📚Horror, Psychology Thriller, Mystery readers ✍🏻 MG, YA, & Adult writers 🕯️Gothic & Dark Fantasy lovers 📖 Indie bookstores, presses, & publishers 🍁 Autumn lovers 📽️ Horror movie lovers ⛈️ Rainy day & stormy night folks 👻 Spooky season folks 🎃 Halloween is life folks https://media.tenor.com/EkVnsaK0IesAAAAC/pumpkin-halloween.gif?hh=278&ww=49826 Sep 2025 02:48 +0000at://did:plc:dltblboozpezanf2khhu76jo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lzphdniqnk2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/briancarneywrites.bsky.social/post/3lzeryrksis2pIt’s been awhile since I took a day off & went to a book store. Was I overly excited, overly caffeinated & told to stop running around like a wild child loose in a candy store? I cannot confirm nor deny, but I will say before they kicked me out I was able to buy a few books to add to my collection.21 Sep 2025 21:00 +0000at://did:plc:dltblboozpezanf2khhu76jo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lzeryrksis2phttps://bsky.app/profile/briancarneywrites.bsky.social/post/3lys7ldmr522y@spooktasticbookfair is in the books.

I’ve had many in my life but there’s something about this one that speaks to me. It calls to me when I’m away. And when I enter, the energy feels different.
