What I've been reading:
Strange Grace by Tessa Gratton (still, slowly)
( I'm still enjoying the book, though maybe a little less than I was at the start. )
A Cornstalk Fiddle, which is a fic inspired by The Devil Went Down To Georgia. I've seen the story recc'd in a ton of places, and finally got around to giving it a read. Read the first half or so, so far. I'd say it deserves the reccs it's gotten.
(Also a couple other fics, but I'm not sure I want to out my porn-reading habits, lol.)
What I've been playing:
Not a damn thing! Maybe next week I'll have time for something.
What I've watched:
We watched so many bad (and a few good!) movies in the last week... These have all been on in the background while I do other stuff, but I've paid enough attention to them to remember them.
Look Again - ( Summary: )
This was pretty basic Lifetime thriller fare, but always nice to watch Morena Baccarin in pretty clothes. At least it dealt with its multiple twists pretty well, and was competently acted.
Honeymoon - ( Summary: )
Pretty good. Definite body-horror.
Grimm Love (also known as Rohtenburg in German) - ( Summary: )
Pretty damn dark.
Her Name Was Christa - ( Summary: )
The second half has some gross-out type of horror, but there was definitely more time devoted to the relationship before that. Better than I figured it would be based on the start of the movie, but definitely weird.
Fresh - ( Summary: )
More of a dark comedy than a horror, and bits of it were definitely quite funny. Well-acted, glad I finally watched it.
The Wretched - ( Summary: )
( Pretty good, and definitely better than anticipated. Minor spoiler: )
Saving Zoe - ( Summary: )
Thriller/drama, not horror. Deals with some pretty awful topics that verged a little close to feeling "after school special/very special episode" for me, but really weren't handled too badly.
Goblin - ( Summary: )
This was utterly atrocious in every way. Seems like it was meant to be bad, but the bad acting and deliberate asshole dialogue was a little too over the top. She may be pregnant with a goblin baby at the end? Not sure.
Kept Woman - ( Summary: )
Also a Lifetime thriller, but with a surprisingly interesting setup and plot! It was pretty enjoyable.
What I've been listening to:
Nothing in terms of podcasts. Listening to the Transistor soundtrack while writing.
