Having reviewed this book, I can definitely say that anyone who likes trickster spirits, tales of bloody havoc, spiritual enlightenment, or interesting things in general should check it out:

Asking the NYT about doomscrolling is like asking your meth dealer for weight loss tips

One of the most surreal moments of my life was bumping into Clark Middleton in an elevator after that episode aired.

Small Press SFF Might Sometimes Be Harder to Find β€” But It's More Than Worth the Effort - Reactor It's a classic underdog tale, and who doesn't love rooting for that?

There is no one answer to the question of how to bring more readers to small press SFF - even the biggest publishers can struggle with "discoverability" - but I wanted to talk about a few things you can do, and why it's always worth it!

Reading Dear Dickhead then seeing Virginie Despentes on Bluesky is like running into Johnny Cash at a Costco

Fiction Review: Adam Camiolo Reads Percival Everett’s New Novel James I am a man who is cognizant of his world, who has been torn from his family, a man who can read and write, a man who will not let his story be self-related but self-written. With my pencil, I wrote…

A quick reminder that the national book winner James is an incredible feat of fiction and is cool as hell. Congrats again to Percival Everett and @doubledaybooks.bsky.social

Thank you for responding to this! One more question for you. Assuming jarmusch gets eliminated today, do you have a take on β€˜the dead don’t die?’ I loved Patterson, but found the pacing of TDDD to be a nonstarter. Was long shot hoping to hear you guys talk about it

The best I can say is that it’s either thematically appropriate or extremely oblivious. No middle ground

The cover of Labatut’s The MANIAC has an AI cover, which uh, feels sort of appropriate

β€œI’m grateful to have what I have, and I love my life. I love my family. I even love my community. But thank god I’ll never need to love Long Island.”

In which Amy Schumer causes me to have an existential crisis and reckon with Long Island as some sort of spiritual tumor.
