Fantasy and horror books and blogposts
I watched Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, last weekend, and I doubt I will surprise anyone when I say that I didn't like it. That is not to say that there weren't bits of it I loved fervently - I think all of the fight scenes between Rey and Kylo were excellently... Continue Reading →
I've already written a quick review of The Ninth House, which is my favorite urban fantasy title of this year after Middlegame.

It's been a while since I've talked about books, but I wanted to talk about this one because I enjoyed it so much. I read a lot, and one of the reasons I read a lot is because I love to lose myself in another character, to feel their emotions for awhile instead of my... Continue Reading →
