Neverland will never let go…

Hooked by A.C. Wise

August 22, 2022 by TylerDFC Leave a Comment

He remembers drowning. That single sentence, recurring often in Hooked, A.C. Wise’s sequel to Wendy, Darling, is the cornerstone of the existential dread that permeates the story. Described as dark fantasy I think this book edges deeper into horror, more even than the first book, which had moments of horror. This is a mean tale and a reinvention of Neverland and the Peter Pan mythos into something modern and terrifying at its core. What set Wendy, Darling apart from the pack of other modern takes on Peter […]

Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Wendy, Darling by A.C. Wise

Cat Chaser by Elmore Leonard

April 18, 2022 by TylerDFC Leave a Comment

I’m starting to get behind so I’m going with the group review format. I didn’t know how to do this until now so I’m hoping this saves my season when my laziness/procrastination (fine, its mostly because of Elden Ring) prevents me from getting my reviews written. These are three books that are very different in genre, but all quite good and recommended.   Malibu catches fire. It is simply what Malibu does from time to time. Tornadoes take the flatlands of the Midwest. Floods rise […]

If I didn’t already have one DNF on my BINGO sheet, I would have quit this one

Lost in the Never Woods by Aiden Thomas

August 20, 2021 by Mobius_Walker 2 Comments

BINGO – They, She, He (the author is trans) I read Aiden Thomas’ other novel Cemetery Boys earlier this year, and I cannot imagine that it will be knocked out of my top 5 favorite novels that I read in 2021. My expectations were very high going in to Lost in the Never Woods, and unfortunately, those expectations were not met. Lost in the Never Woods is a reimaging of the Peter Pan story set in modern times. Peter Pan is real much to the consternation of […]
