But eventually you have to stop fixing things. So all of that is finally finished, and Not Who She Was releases this week on June 26.

Fixed Point by Lynn M. Kristopher
"While I enjoyed this book for the most part, I had some problems in the middle. It seemed to drag, and I found myself wanting to jump ahead, but I resisted the temptation, and I'm glad I did. The last fourth of the book was worth the minor issues I h" Read more of this review »
Not Who She Was by Lynn M. Kristopher

What makes Slaughterhouse-Five so devastating to me is how detached Billy Pilgrim feels from everything happening around him. I always read the science fiction elements less as playful absurdity and more as a way for Billy to escape the horror of war ...more

I’m a big fan of Shirley Jackson, but I think what makes We Have Always Lived in the Castle stand out to me is how the social cruelty feels more disturbing than what happened inside the Blackwood house itself. She makes that hostility feel suffocatin ...more

I Am Legend by Richard Matheson

I Am Legend remains one of my favorite books. The suspense is sustained throughout, but the real achievement is the final reversal of perspective. Matheson avoids the sentimental heroism most stories of this kind collapse into and instead allows a di ...more
