Obviously Groundhog Day was my introduction to this plot device (and you know Young Annette had a thing for Bill Murray). I also really loved Run Lola Run. I saw it it in the theatre and was totally captivated! Timequake was my first Kurt Vonnegut book and I remember really digging it. Does Sliding Doors count? Because I'd include that one. I'm excited to read Kara McDowell's new book, which I think uses a similar device.(less)

I usually put on the playlist I've curated for the project (each book gets its own playlist, obviously) and then I clean my house. Or take a shower. The epiphanies soon follow.(less)

This is one of my favourite books of the year. It's a page-turning, exquisitely written take on the "woman with a ribbon around her neck" lore. The story takes place in New Mexico and centres the voices of the Indigenous and Latina women of the regio ...more

I'm a sucker for an unreliable narrator and this book pulled me in from page one. It's unexpected and disturbing; it's beautifully written and unpredictable. Without giving any spoilers, it takes the haunted house trope and splits it in two. Loved it ...more
