Max Maurey should be on top of the world. He's a famous horror director. Actors love him. Hollywood needs him. He's making money hand over fist. But it's the 80s, and he's directing cheap slashers for audiences who only crave more blood, not real art. Not real horror. And Max's slimy producer refuses to fund any of his new ideas. But when Max discovers an old camera that filmed a very real Hollywood horror, he knows that he has to use this camera for his next movie. The only problem is that it came with a cryptic warning and sometimes wails.

Sally Priest Is My Jam
Revisado: 10-31-24
This book fully leans in to the vibe of cheesy, 80s horror tropes and I support it. The cast of characters are wacky and fun. The pacing can seem a bit slow at times but that's forgiveable because I'm in on the bit, as this is about an artist melodramatically struggling with his art. Recomment for a fun, quirky ride!

Historia5 out of 5 stars 123
London, 1883. The Veil between the living and dead has thinned. Violet-eyed mediums commune with spirits under the watchful eye of the Royal Speaker Society, and sixteen-year-old trans, autistic Silas Bell would rather rip out his violet eyes than become an obedient Speaker wife. After a failed attempt to escape an arranged marriage, Silas is diagnosed with Veil sickness—a mysterious disease sending violet-eyed women into madness—and shipped away to Braxton’s Finishing School and Sanitorium.

Well Ahead of the Competition for My Best Read of the Year
Revisado: 04-19-24
I had zero expectations for this book. I bought it in the recent 2-for 1 credit sale, essentially for the cover art.
Holy Sh*t.
Not only is the performance IMPECCABLE, the writing put me directly in Silas's shoes. I don't really read horror, this is my first book with a trans main character and I'm over 40. Going in blind with zero knowledge or skin in the game didn't stop me from falling deeply in love with this book. Even the rabbit. Maybe especially the rabbit.

Jamie Canning has never been able to figure out how he lost his closest friend. Four years ago, his tattooed, wisecracking, rule-breaking roommate cut him off without an explanation. So what if things got a little weird on the last night of hockey camp the summer they were 18? It was just a little drunken foolishness. Nobody died.

Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

Marie Sklodowska, 25, is studying science at the Sorbonne—one of the only universities in the world that has begun to admit women. A thousand miles from her native Poland, with no money and the odds stacked against any woman daring to pursue a career in such a rigorous field, Marie throws herself into her studies. She’s certain that to succeed in a man’s world, she will have to go it alone.

Audie Award, Multi-Voiced Performance, 2016. The year is 2575, and two rival mega-corporations are at war over a planet that's little more than an ice-covered speck at the edge of the universe. Too bad nobody thought to warn the people living on it. With enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra - who are barely even talking to each other - are forced to fight their way onto one of the evacuating fleet, with an enemy warship in hot pursuit.

High Marks For Outstanding Production
Revisado: 12-09-18
The story itself was interesting but struggled with the basics, particularly with regards to dialogue. However, the voiceover performances and the audio production made up for anything lacking with the details. Recommend.

Based on his historic mission to the International Space Station, Ask an Astronaut is Tim Peake's guide to life in space and his answers to the thousands of questions he has been asked since his return to Earth. With explanations ranging from the mundane (how do you wash your clothes or go to the bathroom while in orbit?) to the profound (do humans have a duty to explore the unknown?), all written in Tim's characteristically warm style, Tim shares his thoughts on every aspect of space exploration.

This was a Daily Deal purchase, narrated by the author so I was a bit weary but it is ace! Space enthusiasts of all ages and learn about everything, and I mean everything, about training, living in and leaving the ISS. Peake's narration in charming as well, so double bonus!

No surprise that a Douglas Adams story is delightful on all fronts, what was surprising was the vast range of characters Martin Freeman brought to the story! What a perfect book to showcase his range. Highly recommend.

The first in-depth look at Lance Armstrong's doping scandal, the phenomenal business success built on the back of fraud, and the greatest conspiracy in the history of sports. Lance Armstrong won a record-smashing seven Tours de France after staring down cancer, and in the process became an international symbol of resilience and courage. In a sport constantly dogged by blood-doping scandals, he seemed above the fray. Then, in January 2013, the legend imploded. He admitted doping during the Tours and, in an interview with Oprah, described his "mythic, perfect story" as "one big lie."

Revisado: 11-16-18
I came for Santino Fontana and stayed for the exceptional journalism. Being a reporter from Texas, I thought I was pretty familiar with Armstrong's story. This book fills in gaps I couldn't have imagine existed. Grab this to hear a (compellingly narrated) comprehensive review of doping in cycling.
