The Best And Worst of Stephen King
So, I think everyone who’s ever inched close to this blog by now knows that I am a huge fan of Stephen King. My first great literary love, I still have a huge soft spot for him, look upon a lot of his back catalogue with deep affection, and probably always will. But that doesn’t mean that he hasn’t put out some stinkers, too. And I figured – hey, why not share my favourite Stephen King books right here alongside the ones that I think sucked the hardest? I know I have some controversial choices here, but I stand (heh) by them – and would love to hear your best and worst, too.

So, Orange is the New Black is over, and I’m sure by now you’ve read precisely ten thousand commentary articles on the show as a whole: the best characters, performances, arcs, seasons, episodes, moments. And quite rightly so – OITNB has consistently, despite some wobbly seasons, proved itself as a dynamic, diverse, woman-centric piece of storytelling with a solid mix of the serious and the silly, as well as providing platforms for a collection of awesome actors to launch their careers off of.

The (In)Essential Tarantino
You know, for a long time, I’ve been trying to figure out what it is I don’t like about Quentin Tarantino.

Read this Damn Author
Look, right, okay, I get it, I don’t actually write about writing very much on this blog (apart from to shamelessly plug my debut novel Rape Jokes in brackets constantly, buy it here). Apart from that time I recapped Carrie. Or the Harry Potter books. Or Fifty Shades. Or…
