Today on Bar Cart Bookshelf, we're talking about #HarrowTheNinth by Tamsyn Muir! The second book in #TheLockedTomb series, Harrow is a phantasmagoric portrait of grief and duty. Our drink, The Ninth Saint, is floral & austere, well-suited to the silent halls of a space mausoleum.

In a canal in the desert there sat a ship. Not a narrow, dusty, dry canal, filled with the ends of boats and an sandy smell, nor yet a natural, broad, passage through the ocean with nothing in it to block ships or regulate trade: it was a shipping canal, and that means commerce.

Today’s cocktail, The Golden Tusk, is inspired by one of the best books I’ve read so far this year: The Unspoken Name. Go out and read it and try the drink for yourself!

@FeliciaDavin I once got to leave a little note in a mini bio of hers in a TJ Maxx, just doing my part.

@Leask @Nicole_Cliffe This is so true. Jimmy Fallon is garbage and I can’t believe he’s still on tv.

Spooky Season 2: Necrotic Bookaloo! Today on Bar Cart Bookshelf we're talking about LEECH by Hiron Ennes. A gothic sci-fi novel replete with body horror, it is one of my favorite books of the year! Our drink, The Institute, is a frosty dessert cocktail that eats you right back.

Bar Cart Bookshelf doesn't have an LGBTQIA+ playlist because that's basically my whole beat. I'm more interested in *how* you explore masculinity, queerness, the othering of sexual minorities. And most of all with story & speculation. I want to know what's fantastical.

NEW VIDEO ALERT! Today on Bar Cart Bookshelf we’re talking about LOVELY CREATURES by KT Bryski. A deliciously voicey novella with a fairytale aura amid a dustbowl wasteland, I was enchanted. Our drink, the Dust Devil, is dry as bone and bright with an apple kiss.

I call this stack “So you want something weird?” Here’s a fun constellation of books I enjoyed together, thinking about the relationship between the self & body, society & the alien. Divine sci-fi, clones, planet-sized AI, botanical scifantasy, the ethics of first contact. Enjoy!

Today on Bar Cart Bookshelf we're talking about @KMayquist 's TRIPPING ARCADIA: a Boston-based botanical gothic with a byronic boy, a sharp sister, and a poisonous physician's assistant. Our drink, Arrow's Edge, is effervescent and herbal, but much kinder than the Verdeau parties!

Did you know it’s #SciFiMonth ? I’ve got THE MIMICKING OF KNOWN SUCCESSES by Malka Older on my TBR this month. I had a great time with the Centenal Cycle and when you offer up a cozy sapphic mystery set on Jupiter, you know I’m leaping at the chance!

Today on Bar Cart Bookshelf we’re talking about THE TWO DOCTORS GÓRSKI by @Isaac_Fellman . A critique of graduate mentorship with magic both tantalizingly familiar & wholly otherworldly. Our drink, the Brandford Tonic, is a mocktail for a walk to the university on a misty morning.
