The cover reveal of @mstiefvater next book is giving me life today! But why do you have to torture us like this, @ireadya ?!

#CallDowntheHawk fans, we know you've been waiting but this cover is too stunning to give it to you all at once so here's your sneak peek! 😍

When this tweet gets to 5000 retweets, we'll reveal the full cover of #TheDreamerTrilogyBook2 by @mstiefvater! Trust us, it's worth it 😏

@CharissaAPowell Very glad to hear you are tumor free! But as a fellow migraine sufferer, I'm so sorry. I get a blurry aura at the onset of my headaches but have never experienced loss of vision. I hope you and your doctor are able to find something that makes it more bearable!

@elizsoergel I miss Ikea. Raleigh doesn't have one so people down here make a day trip or even weekend out of the 3 hour drive to the Ikea in Charlotte.

@ArchivingAmanda Currently having the same debate with myself...the prudent thing would be to save the money for a new bike (still riding the bike I got in middle school!)...but roller skates are definitely a more stylish and expressive form of exercise!

@RyloLH I’m at the NC coast and felt it here too!

You probably don't need any more advice. Just begin doing the thing. Once you start doing, you may pause and seek targetted resources or advice, but keep your vision in mind (and adjust as necessary). Seeking input from others is marvelous; it's also a common avoidance tactic.

Wear a mask. That is, unless you want to be intubated by a gynecology intern July 1st who did her last semester of med school via Zoom.

Can't see this without making a plug for https://t.co/3hSeooRwPo! As someone who teaches about finding & evaluating health info, it's encouraging to see so many replies with reliable health info websites. @medlineplus

[Megan Fratta @mnfratta]

@dndurbin Haha I love it!! 😂This would definitely be a good intro to a conversation about trustworthy sources like Mayo clinic and https://t.co/YGAhpzyamE!

@LynneeLue Congrats Lynnee!!! 🎉

And yes, I’ve been reading way too much lately. Want to read about murder bees and magic and fast cars and psychics all set in a charming rural Virginia small town? Check out the Raven Cycle by @mstiefvater . It’s not primarily about kissing like the synopsis says, I promise!

[Megan Fratta @mnfratta]

“At more than two inches long, they're the world's largest hornets with a sting that can kill humans if bitten multiple times" ⁦⁦⁦⁦⁦@mstiefvater⁩ please send a ragtag team of rural Virginian teens to stop this murder hornet madness! https://t.co/UMfHqzEdzJ
