Book Twitter: new reviews surface
Recent Book Twitter posts highlighted fresh reviews, including Brynne Weaver’s Leather & Lark and Zelinda Morrison’s Requiem — noted as the final entry in the Those Fleeting Annihilations series rather than a standalone. (x.com) (x.com)
Fresh Book Twitter posts are steering readers to two different kinds of review targets: a bestselling dark romance in Brynne Weaver’s *Leather & Lark* and a small-press speculative finale in Zelinda Morrison’s *Requiem*. (goodreads.com) (amazon.com) *Leather & Lark* is the second book in Weaver’s Ruinous Love trilogy, and publisher listings describe it as a June 4, 2024 release built around Lachlan Kane and Lark Montague. Goodreads lists more than 297,000 ratings and more than 35,000 reviews, putting it in a very different visibility tier from most Book Twitter discoveries. (penguinrandomhouse.com) (goodreads.com) The Morrison title is newer and easier to mislabel. Retail listings identify *Requiem* as Book 5 of 5 in the *Those Fleeting Annihilations* series, with a March 17, 2026 publication date, not as a standalone novel. (amazon.ca) (amazon.com) That distinction changes how readers approach the book. Earlier listings for *Harsh Light*, *Those Fleeting Annihilations*, and *Dangerous Sleep* show Morrison building an ongoing post-collapse story about a world where sleep became scarce and dangerous, with *Requiem* closing that arc. (goodreads.com 1) (goodreads.com 2) (goodreads.com 3) The two books also show how review traffic on social platforms now mixes mass-market hits with niche series fiction. Weaver’s book comes from Zando and sits inside a trilogy tied to the breakout success of *Butcher & Blackbird*, while Morrison’s series appears to be circulating through retailer pages and reader databases with far smaller public review counts. (brynneweaverbooks.com) (penguinrandomhouse.com) (goodreads.com) Review framing matters especially for series fiction, where a wrong label can send new readers to the endpoint first. In this case, the clearest verified update is not a plot detail but a cataloging one: *Requiem* is being sold and indexed as the final entry in *Those Fleeting Annihilations*. (amazon.com) (amazon.ca) For readers following the latest review chatter, that leaves a simple split screen. One book is an established BookTok-and-Book Twitter crossover with hundreds of thousands of ratings; the other is a March 2026 series finale that needs to be read in sequence to make sense.
