Also on Other Worlds Than These, shaky first 50 pages, but I’m nearly 200 in now and King is cooking on gas. On audio I’ve gone old school with Sarah Pinborough’s Breeding Ground. Fantastically gruesome body horror.

Read Exit Party in two days over last weekend. Absolutely majestic. The wait for her next book begins. Now on to There is No Antimemetic Division which is totally bonkers.

Laura Mauro breaks a four-year silence with Biographies of Valiant Drunken Tigers: a decapitating ghost story and a bleak, Yuki-Onna-haunted novella soaked in Japanese folklore. gnofhorror.com/biographies-... Be sure to watch it till the end, for new volley in the Great Coffee Cream War

I was a little disappointed. It started well, and the ending was quite satisfying, but it moved rather too slowly through the main part of the book. The characters felt authentic to the movie portrayals but overall it all felt like a bit of a plod with just one or two essential scenes.
