Fairly Queer

Here are the four books from 2024 that I talked about for our bookseller night. It was fun but I think my final list will be quite different since I still have a few anticipated reads for December! Stay tuned for those.

Bookseller Recommendation Night

Hi, here are the four books from 2024 that I talked about for our shop's recommendation night. It was kind of a spur of the moment list, and generally this was not a huge reading year for me(32 is where I'm sitting right now), but these definitely stood out! My final list will probably look a bit different since an arc of Heavenly Tyrant by Xiran Jay Zhao is sitting on my kindle at the moment and I just know, that book will destroy me (in the best way). 

This is my first tiktok style video that I'm posting onto Bindery, as other social media apps get shaky, youtube is going to become the main platform where I post my recs, reviews, and roundups. I'm also on Bluesky now which I'm loving so far. 

What were your favorite books this year? Leave a comment here and let me know!

Hii I'll be posting some backlog here onto Bindery as I get back in the swing of things. Some of these titles have already released, some have just come out this month, and others haven't even made it to this list but are mentioned below. There are tons of amazing comics and books out there right now, I hope you add some of these to your tbr. 

I'll link all the ones that have already been published, just to keep it simple!

Since making this post, I've already acquired a few for my shelf, and I have my eyes on the rest. If you're interested in grabbing any, check them out on my Bookshop.org page, linked here, or, of course, request them at your local library.

Thanks for reading <3

October Book Club Meeting 

Here are the whopping two books I read while on my trip to Spain and Morocco. I'm slowly getting back into reviewing books, so this post is brief. But as fall quickly approaches, a lot of content is about to come your way. The fall tbr is already lengthy! For now, I hope you enjoy my reviews, I have the titles linked below if you'd like to purchase / pre-order!

Books I read this Summer ☀️

Just wanted to update here in case you missed the post announcements, we have our book club picks for August! 

I've been in a pretty heavy dystopia mindset lately but with the world being in it's current state, I can't help but think of utopian futures. What comes after a system crumbles? These will be the questions we explore this month as we read Everything for Everyone and Little Bird. Hope to catch you on discord ! Links below <3

Hii I hope you enjoy this roundup of all the media I've been consuming lately. I've linked all these works as well as the best way to support these creators/writers/scholars/artists below. Within just 2 weeks I've seen so much incredible work, these are just the few that resonated the most !

Fareeha

Hi there, my name is Fareeha (she/her) I'm a queer Pakistani Muslim content creator, writer, artist and indie bookseller. I have been reading and discussing fantasy, scifi, and comics that center around the Muslim experience, queer existence, and underrepresented communities in publishing for over 3 years on TikTok.


To me, culturally specific fantasy and the burgeoning work of Muslim Futurism created by and for marginalized communities is liberation work. My Bindery will be dedicated to reading and discussing these stories that are often out of the spotlight. I hope you'll join my growing community and along the way find some more authors and cartoonists that make you feel seen.

Hi, welcome to this part of the internet. 

Welcome to my page. I like to share snippets from my life as an artist & fantasy writer trying her best. I made this channel to put all my thoughts & media opinions in one place. Expect sporadic expression and some very passionate takes. If you're finding me from tiktok, thanks for being here 💕
