CBC Canada Reads Rundown: 2017
Canadian bookworms are generally a shy bunch. We don’t get out much because we’re so busy reading and drinking tea (especially in the winter months) and our book awards are not as numerous as the Americans, so rarely do we get a chance to have national discussions about a book’s merit. That’s why the Canada…
Book Review: From the Wreck by Jane Rawson
I’m very happy to report that I hunted down this book through the Calgary Public Library system after reading and enjoying a review of it from Marcie at Buried in Print, perhaps one of the best-read people in the world (those of you who follow her blog know I’m not exaggerating, she reads hundreds of…
Book Review: The Reservoir by David Duchovny
That David Duchovny? Yes, that David Duchovny. I read his latest release, a novella titled The Reservoir, but he has released three books before this, so I had high hopes that this wouldn’t be terrible. Books by celebrities tend to be held to a different standard; we don’t expect the same brilliance from them that’s…

Each year they release three previously-published ghost stories but with the additions of illustrations by Seth, meant to revive the Victorian tradition of reading ghost stories on Christmas Eve. I’ve done this a…

“But Santa’s into sluts, that’s why he says ho ho ho!”–my husband
Did you read the publishers spooky box, or whatever it was, chosen by Patton Oswalt? I think it was all horror themed. They should do that next year with the advent calendar. Seriously, publishers put out calls for themed stories all the time, and people either write them it submit ones they’ve written.
bahahaha that comment sounds exactly like something my husband would say!
I didn’t read the ghost box, but I’d like to! It was all horror or gothic themed I think. You’re right, I’m surprised they didn’t specify the stories needed to have some holiday-ish ness to them.
I would have thought mistletoe would have been an essential tool for an aspiring slut…
right???
Catching up, obviously…
I liked the fire – thought it was a nice change of pace and nice lighting.
I agree, this kind of story should have been included earlier in the month, from the sound of it. “Santa would not approve” – that made me laugh!
he sure wouldn’t! My husband did though :)
