A light, fun read with a barrel full of creep
The Town

The Town is a fucking rollercoaster of a ride.
This Australian horror is written in a kind of jarring prose. The story is brilliant, terrifying, and utterly refuses to share its secrets with you.
On finishing this book, I promise that the first words out of your mouth will be "WHAT THE FUCK!".
Reminds me of books by China Miéville, John Langan, and Michael Marshall Smith.
Get it now!
Anne of Green Gables

kevin
What an absolutely lovely, fun, and extremely well-written book!
The funniest story I've read in years, and with such heart.
The descriptions of the natural world surrounding Anne are... sublime. Lucy Montgomery's writing should be taught as the pinnacle of its particular kind of author/narrator storytelling.
The Waterborne Blade

What a fantastic book!
Loved every minute, there's never a lag, and the characters are full, interesting, and complicated.
Now that some secrets have been revealed, the ante has upped, and things or GOING OFF!
Immediately started the sequel.

Brilliant introduction into the fucked up mind of Chuck Wendig.
In the Sweep of the Bay
Recommended by
sakina
Why do we make the choices we do? Social and family pressures, personal beliefs of our place in society and of how our lives are supposed to be. This is a book that lets you look inside the lives of one family, and gives you the sense of understanding that a bitter or reserved exterior can hide losses that no-one else knows about.

Really enjoyed this novella, like early Gibson but with contemporary themes as source material. Drones, social media, self driving cars, AI, etc,....
Hopefully there's more to come.
