Run and buy your tickets now because the Abyss is returning for one night only! https://youtu.be/7cCVYAcIIAo?si=z8LFF...
It’s always nice to see Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd. ( I had to look up that spelling)
Predator is my favorite movie. But I would say The Fall Guy is an action movie, in an action movie.
I still need to try that book.
All the Things He Called Memories by Stephen Graham Jones ★★★☆☆ This was a claustrophobic lockdown story where a clinical psychologist decides to experiment on her husband. I found it deeply unpleasant.
Papa Eye by Priya Sharma ★★★½☆ This did take its time, so much time that when I was finally interested I needed to go back to the beginning. Or I will, later.
Volcano by Livia Llewellyn ★★★★☆
No writes like Livia. She makes depression goth-dark instead of sad and lonely. She creates friends for your darkness.
Fiona, I finally watched Exandria Unlimited: Calamity. That last episode was six hours long - I cried and cried. It was worth the pain but damn.
Thank goodness they are getting better. Near a fifth of the way in and I didn’t like anything, it was troubling.
It was overwhelming but she had a good time and enjoyed all the pets and treats. I wish I could have gotten a video of her noticing the jaguar walking a foot away from her. Not quite spooked, but a little shocked, at realizing that wasn’t a dog.
Today was my local zoo’s inaugural Dog Day! I got this amazing photo of my dog, in a Wonder Woman costume, and a lioness: https://www.goodreads.com/photo/user/...
A Life in Nightmares by Ramsey Campbell ★★☆☆☆ Whatever happened to the baby was scary/sad and the rest was boring with ending that came out of nowhere.

The winter solstice is celebrated as a time of joy around the world—yet the long nights also conjure a darker tradition of ghouls, hauntings, and visitations. This anthology of all-new stories invites you to huddle around the fire and revel in the unholy, the dangerous, the horrific aspects of a time when families and friends come together—for better and for worse.

The Attentionist by Caroline Kepnes ★½☆☆☆ I can’t believe I stuck it out. I was hoping for a payoff that did not come. This wasn’t horror, it was chick lit, though being tricked into reading it was horrible.
Terrible first story, but hopefully the worst of the bunch.
I bought a physical copy of the mammoth vampire book we read and kept it afterwards. There’s something nice about a tome, you feelaccomplished when you finish. As far as the group reading another, it’s easy to get it on a poll. If you participate in a book of the month reading discussion you are asked to volunteer a suggestion for the poll.
