Lovely!
Lana touring the UK next June. If I don’t get tickets I will die.
Finished The Party by Tessa Hadley. Small (115 pages) but perfectly formed. I do love novellas. I want to see more of them published. This one would make a nice Christmas present for the literary type in your life
Watching Magpie, the new Daisy Ridley film. Her husband is a literary novelist so of course their house is enormous. He’s also an utter cock and their daughter is incredibly annoying. Good film though 😆
My new favourite programme is Cheaters. It’s so more moreish with its 10-minute episodes, the TV equivalent of a tube of Pringles
Great! Enjoy :)
Oh, thank you for reading it!
Finished The God of the Woods by Liz Moore. Wonderful writing, atmospheric setting and a compelling mystery with a satisfying ending. One of the best books of 2024.
Dottie, it’s cold outside
Being a cat and dog person is pretty much my whole brand 😂
We have excellent taste
Ah! The scientific approach
Introduce yourself with:
One book: The Secret History, Donna Tartt
One movie: The Blair Witch Project
One album: Disintegration, The Cure
One TV show: Breaking Bad
How does one find out what starter packs one is in?
You can pre-order from Amazon now :)
I’m watching what I thought was the grand finale now. It’s fantastic.
And now I feel daft 😂
Oh I thought the ones that just dropped were the final five!
There’s no crying in karate . . . but I might shed a tear over the end of Cobra Kai. Corny and cheesy but always gloriously entertaining, exciting and - thanks to the brilliant William Zabka - hilariously funny. I’m going to miss it.
It’s a fantastic comedy show. I think it’s on HBO Max.
I know and S3 has been out in the US for months. So frustrating!
It was life changing. Not the same on a telly but still very good.
My current biggest first world problem is that season 3 of Hacks still hasn’t been released in the UK. Why oh why, is it beyond the wit of man, etc.
Watched the new blu ray of The Blair Witch Project which came out this week. TBH it doesn’t seem very different but it’s still my favourite horror film. The last 15 minutes is utter genius.
😂 They’re lovely really
This was so much fun. I rarely do public readings so I was shocked by how much I enjoyed it. There’s nothing like the live reaction of a crowd. A great group of authors too.
Thanks for inviting me! It was a lot of fun.
Yeah they were thrilled when I told them the title 😆
That’s great… but why don’t you read my books?!
