We’re delighted to welcome Ohio author Mark Bogner back to Parallel Universe Books. Mark is an independent science fiction writer with more than twenty years of storytelling experience.

A lifelong sci-fi enthusiast, he draws inspiration from decades of ideas, experiences, and wonderfully strange bits of knowledge he’s gathered along the way—many of which eventually make their way into his stories. In addition to writing, Mark runs a small social media company focused on creative storytelling. RSVP today for Mark’s book signing!

They say, “Go wherever the wind takes you.” 🌬️
So naturally… it led me to a bookstore. 📚✨

& better yet…Parallel Universe Bookstore! 📚

Where’s the wind taking you today?😉

🌶️ Some like it sweet.
🌶️ Some like it spicy.
🌶️ Some skip straight to five peppers.

We just make it easier to find your next obsession. 😉📚

How many 🌶️ can you handle?

POV: I cleaned my camera… turns out it wasn’t blurry, there are just that many books calling your name. 📚👀

One minute you’re “just browsing.” The next you’re leaving with three books, a tote bag, and zero regrets.

Bookstore math: 1 book = self-control.
3 books = responsible.
7+ books = emotional support.

What’s the most you’ve ever walked out of a bookstore with? Be honest. 😂📖

On Wednesdays, we go book shopping 💁🏼‍♀️📚

So, please bring up books so I can talk about them more📚

Actually, don’t just bring them up…ask for recommendations, tell me your latest five-star read, rant about the ending that ruined your life, or convince me to add just one more book to my TBR.

We’re all enablers here. 😉

Drop the last book you couldn’t stop talking about in the comments. ⬇️✨

If you knew the book from one quote alone… congratulations, you’re probably overdue for a reread. 📖⚔️

Fantasy readers really hear one line and immediately know the chapter, the character, and the emotional damage attached to it.

So… did you recognize this one, or do I need to revoke your sanderfan card? 👀
