“None of us are what we were.” #CBRBINGO – Question

What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher

November 2, 2022 by narfna Leave a Comment

I literally just wrote a review for the book I finished a day before I finished this one where I could barely remember what had happened or how I felt about it, and then comes this book where I feel like I just read it yesterday and it’s vividly imprinted on my brain. And yet I gave them the same rating. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Maybe I’ll bump this one up to 4.5 stars. It really was very well done. Fantastically creepy. I was already scarred for life […]

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Adaptation (Star Wars Disney Canon Graphic Novel) by Chuck Wendig

December 30, 2017 by borisanne Leave a Comment

Okay, did you read the hilarious tweet conversation this summer between Chuck Wendig and Sam Sykes? It’s here. I’ll wait while you read it, because it’s a damned delight of an exchange between two writers who love their work and appreciate genre and enjoy happiness. And then there was another one, this fall. It’s here. Again, I’ll wait. Okay. So, the above was the first I had ever heard of either Wendig or Sykes, and I instantly became a more-likely fan of both because of […]

Shakespeare + Monsters + Dick Jokes = Christopher Moore

The Serpent of Venice by Christopher Moore

June 15, 2014 by KimMiE" 7 Comments

As I’ve mentioned before, I love Christopher Moore for his ability to make me forget the troubles of the world. If he has to do that by making me laugh at the most sophomoric humor imaginable, so be it. With Serpent of Venice, though, Moore surpasses this admittedly low bar by adding two other components that I dearly love: Shakespeare and Edgar Allen Poe. At a book signing I attended, Moore explained that he got the idea for setting a monster story in Venice while […]
