Drove my parents insane listening to this record over…and over…and over when I was a kid. 😍

I’m on a roll this year, 3/5 books I’ve read have grabbed me by the imagination and won’t let go.The Cartel by Don Winslow, Wake Up & Open Your Eyes by @claymcleod.bsky.social & Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix. It released yesterday and I’m already halfway done 😍
Reading is so cool 2/2
One of my favorite things is getting so caught up in a book that I truly can’t put it down. Sneaking reading time in at work, listening to the audio every spare second. I can really enjoy a book without it gripping me like that, but the truly “unputdownable” ones are magic. (1/2)
There are some things that I think are very well done and are objectively good but aren’t for me.
There’s a store in downtown Burlington that sells all sorts of critters, Flora and Fauna. They’re super cool!

Until I stumbled across this article I didn’t know how badly I needed a John Steinbeck werewolf novel…
A Young John Steinbeck's Unpublished Werewolf Novel Isn't Going To Print

This October I watched the WHOLE franchise back to back and was impressed by how well most of it holds up (3&5 were the weak points, IMO)
I saw it at the theater feeling smug cause I went in going totally blind…and was disappointed that there wasn’t a monster with long legs 🤣
It was a fine Silence of the Lambs homage, but I wanted a monster, dammit.
Oh you mean the guy he explicitly said he’d put in charge of public health???? 😭😭😭😭😭

It would be wild to do this while they were still in office…so confused every day…
But also having to learn how awful they are all over again??
I *like* fan service, and I feel like they could have cut the amount in half. There were some clever Easter eggs I noticed which were subtle and not just repeating the lines from other movies.
I loved the way the movie played with the acid blood, loved that it was unapologetically HORROR.
Name 5 horror authors whose books you will buy without even reading the synopsis:

I’m curious about this too…where are folks getting news that doesn’t suck. I need to be up to speed for my day job, but would like to support fair journalism (if such a thing still exists).
I read the Atlantic a lot…
I hear you! I’m here to see my friends and hear about cool stories. Don’t wanna debate anyone!
I also like the idea that there are feral demons and there are genteel demons.
What else would they be?!?!?!
I’m reading AMERICAN SCARY by Jeremy Dauber, and he referenced Anthony Boucher’s 1942 short story “The Compleat Werewolf.”
Y’all, this story has everything. Werewolves. Spies. G-men. Hollywood starlets. Satanists. I had to pause my reading to find the short story and consume it.
Highly recommend.

If my “I VOTED” sticker was a scratcher.
He’s a menace. It’s going to be a long four years.
It was my favorite of the three!
Ember and I are curious if this is where the cool kids are hanging out now?
Moar hot ppl!!
Cañas does some very cool things with vampire lore and the historical strife with the US/Mexican border, the predominant subplot is a romance between Nena & vaquero Nestor. I like the characters and setting but wanted more vampires. (These are SCARY vampires and are NOT a part of the romance plot!)
