While I can’t say that I’ve ever been truly scared of an X-Files episode, there have been some that have left me unsettled or double checking my surroundings. The majority of these episodes are about the terrifying things that humans do to one another as opposed to some supernatural force… Read more »
Have You Heard? Halloween Edition
October is finally here and with it comes the desire for spoooooooookyyyy stories. I’ve spent the past week or so searching out new shows that are creepy, unnerving, and sometimes, even true. You may recognize a few of the names already, as they’ve been mentioned on previous posts or on… Read more »
Review: Brother by Ania Ahlborn
Ever get to the end of a book and think… the hell did I just read? That was me at the end of Brother. And not in a bad “the hell did I just read?” way, but more in a way that’s got me questioning whether this particular style of horror… Read more »
Limited Time Only: Get ‘The Boss’ Series for $1.99
I am a big, big fan of Jenny Trout’s (writing as Abigail Barnette) series, The Boss. Written as a response to 50 Shades of Grey and its numerous replications that are all chock-full of misogyny, questionable BDSM practices, and unlikable characters, The Boss follows the reunion of Sophie and her former one-night stand, Neil,… Read more »
Saying Goodbye to ‘Hannibal’
Like many people, I have a terrible habit of making assumptions about things before I experience them personally. When I heard back in 2012/2013 that Thomas Harris’ Red Dragon was being adapted to a TV series – let alone a broadcast TV series – I was dubious, to say… Read more »

Let me tell you about this little gem of a web series I, quite fittingly, stumbled across the other day via a Tumblr gif set tagged with Richard Armitage’s name. OTP: OneTruePairing follows Sheila and Jeremy, a fic writing duo who live in New York City. After having worked… Read more »
Review: Aurora by Kim Stanley Robinson
I’ve never been the biggest fan of hard science fiction, mainly because I like fiction that’s heavily character-driven, and a lot of hard SF seems to sacrifice character for science. I had that problem with Aurora to a point, though I did think some of the characters were far more well… Read more »
Review: Trailer Park Fae by Lilith Saintcrow
This was an odd book. Not that that’s negative; in fact, I actually liked the book quite a lot. But Saintcrow has managed to write the fae so alien that I felt slightly off kilter during my entire read, and that’s an impressive feat. The book is filled nearly to… Read more »
Have You Heard? Science and Time Travel Edition
If you’re a fan of science-y stuff (even if you failed hard in most science classes like myself), you’ll love Probably Science. Comedians and scientists join hosts Matt Kirshen, Andy Wood, Jesse Case, and (in earlier episodes) Brooks Whelan to talk about science news each week. Because it’s been around… Read more »
