It was, in short, breathtaking, at least once literally, as I am apparently very, very allergic to something that was up near Pittock Mansion. I took a few pictures, which I’ll probably post, at least to Facebook and environs, once I get around to sorting through them on my phone. I’m still getting used to this whole ro...

Holly Black is one of my favorite authors, and as much as I love her Modern Faerie Tales or Curse Workers novels, I love her most when she's doing something small and creepy, and this fits the bill, though it's actually less ghost story and more comi...more

Chick Bassist

read in May, 2013
Holy crap. I picked this up at the HPLFF, and read it on the first leg of the plane ride home. I devoured it, even though that meant I didn't have anything to read on the second leg. It was just that good.

I'm not really a person who has read a lot of...more

It's hard to say what to put The Ghastly Ones under. It's not really a comic, but it's not really an art book. A little collection of rhymes about murderers and monsters accompanying illustrations by Richard Sala, whose work continues to grow on me t...more

Jesse Bullington is a friend of mine, and was before I ever read the first of his books, The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart. What this means is that, before I ever read anything by him, I was terrified that I was going to hate it, because there's...more

Ray Bradbury
“It's poor judgment', said Grandpa 'to call anything by a name. We don't know what a hobgoblin or a vampire or a troll is. Could be lots of things. You can't heave them into categories with labels and say they'll act one way or another. That'd be silly. They're people. People who do things. Yes, that's the way to put it. People who *do* things.”
Ray Bradbury, The October Country
