IDs: A cover of a horror pulp magazine depicting Frankenstein’s monster and Frankenstein’s bride standing in front of a farm house. Frankenstien’s monster is holding a pitchfork and Frankenstein’s bride is wearing a darkly coloured dress. There is text taken from a book at the top of the image that reads “The most beautiful thing about monstorsity-as-gender is that once you become a monster, nothing looks “normal”. Everyone is a monster waiting to happen, they are just choosing, at that moment, to cohere to a fictional set of rules.

A page taken from the inside of a pulp horror magazine with some edits made. There is a header picture at the top of an edited still from a classic Frankenstien movie, showing the monster standing in a square while people cower in fear from it. There is a tagline attached that reads “It comes... a faggot like death... closer... closer...” There is another image in the bottom right corner of DR Frankenstein frowning at a vial of testosterone in a glass case. The text in the right hand corner reads “You start inhabiting an entire world of monsters. And nothing looks better. ED.

Edited a 1970s horror magazine with words from Monster Trans by Boots Potential, which you can read in full here

196 - Notting Hill (EW Summer Movie Preview - Listeners’ Choice)

Whoopsie daisies, we have come to the close of our May miniseries taking a deep focus look back at Entertainment Weekly’s seasonal movie preview issues. And the closer was chosen by you, listeners! For your Listeners’ Choice, you have selected the Summer Movie Preview for Notting Hill. The film famously went head-to-head with grand behemoth Star Wars: Episode One - The Phantom Menace and still emerged victorious at the box office, thanks in part to Julia Roberts’ reemergent romcom power and the charms of Hugh Grant back in bumbling mop-haired mode. Notting Hill stars both respectively as the most famous actress in the world and a modest travel bookstore owner who fall in love against the odds, and it comes with all of the signatures of the combined powers of director Roger Michell and screenwriter Richard Curtis.

This episode, we look back at the oft-revisited 1999 movie year and unpack why it remains so fascinating to talk about. We also discuss Roberts’ double-header of romcom hits that summer with Runaway Bride, Pulp Fiction’s influence on films like Go, and South Park’s movie mission to wage war with the MPAA.

Topics also include capsizing in a boat with Tilda Swinton, Eyes Wide Shut’s veil of mystery before release, and VH1 Divas Live 1999.

SO's Bookclub : The Ghosts of Now

Title: The Ghosts of Now Author: Joan Lowery Nixon Genre: YA Mystery

Goodreads Summary: It's Friday night and Angie Dupree is alone in the house when the phone rings. "Your brother is dead," whispers a voice. At the hospital, Angie finds Jeremy in a coma from which he may never recover. Angie is on her own trying to piece together the events of that horrifying night. Her family is new to town. What could Jeremy possibly have discovered that led him so deeply into danger? Angie won't rest until she finds out. But she doesn't know someone is ready to do anything to stop her...

Review: These books are like crack. I can see why I ate them up as a young teen.

A few things to note before I dig in - Something I haven't mentioned, but each book has its own font attached to it - the title and chapter headers are very different from each other. It's not until the 90s reprints do the covers become homogenized. But the original fonts (definitely created in the time periods they were published) are retained. I think it's a cool detail - since it adds to the flavor of the book. Also - I've been seeking out the original covers of these books, they are all these 70s/80s pulp fiction kind of style. The one for this particular book is extra creepy. The girl on the cover is hauntingly disturbing.

Back to the actual review... I don't know if JLN got a new editor, or if she suddenly just became a better writer, but this book's writing is vastly better than the previous ones. (The previous book was decent - but there were still some awkward passages.) There isn't as much erroneous details, and the dialogue, which had been somewhat cringey in the previous books, is much better.

I'd kind of wonder if she used a ghost writer if it weren't for the fact that her usual tropes are very much in tact - some even exaggerated due to the specific story she's telling.

So - Angie is a California girl with her dad in the oil business - and they've moved out to Texas. It's funny - when I was younger, I never really noticed all of these books being set in Texas - but this one takes it to really stereotypical levels to emphasize the point that Angie is an outsider. The whole crux of the plot is that a small town kind of bands together to protect their own at the sacrifice of a young kid who just kinda happened to be caught up in the wrong type of thing.

And, actually, it's not bad. There are some definite creepy parts to the novel (when they're checking out the abandoned house, the tension is deliciously good). And the whole premise that this town has secrets leaves you feeling very uncomfortable in a very believable way (says a person who felt like an outsider coming into small town life).

While the story isn't bad, some of the characterization still is. The main character, Angie, does some things that just make you feel incredibly uncomfortable with second hand embarrassment. She crosses a lot of lines, and while she's right to call certain things out, the way she does it is so awkward that it's really hard to read. She's also very irritatingly stubborn in her approach - and while you can give her a pass for being a teen in the 80s, sometimes it's frustrating watching her not take an easier path to achieve her ultimate goal in who put her brother in the coma.

The other characters, too, aren't really that interesting. Angie has a boyfriend, like, right off the bat when she moves in, but he's a little bland, and really lacking any motivation as to why they connect. She makes a few friends - but they're so inconsequential to the story they might as well not be there. And everyone else is suspicious and terrible - which makes the book kind of go in the direction you most expect it to.

There's also a family drama element going on, too. The dad is a workaholic asshole, who seems to think mental health is not something to concern one's self with. While Angie's mom is slowly becoming an alcoholic because she hates that she's forced to move around so much due to her husband's job. The whole point is the theme of 'ghosts' and that they're not a family, just ghosts of who they should be -- and Angie's brother ending up in a coma kind of wakes them all up from it. I've never been one for family dramas in general, but questionable mental health comments aside, it's not that bad.

I should also mention that the book holds up relatively well, except for when it is blatantly 80s. At one point, Angie exclaims that she much prefers disco over country-western, which really gave me a laugh.

I'll also say that the ending just... isn't worth the tension the rest of the book brings. It feels somewhat anticlimactic and almost silly. It's kind of like JLN had to take it down because it was a teen book or something.

Overall, it is one of the better novels I've read so far, though.

Rating: 3 stars

4 & 8 for the end of the year ask game! ^^

4. What is your favorite line you wrote this year?

I had to think on this for a moment, and this is technically three lines, but it has to be;

If you asked him for his opinion, Meparik thought that the little two-copper pirate adventure printed on cheap pulp paper was the platonic ideal of fiction. Well, for the most part. The titular pirate did stop to kiss and kiss and kiss a really boring noblewoman for a chapter, which wasn’t very platonic nor ideal for Mep, as he’d rather get back to the adventuring.

I love writing Mep snark almost as much as I like writing Crislie comebacks.

8. What are three things you're looking forward to next year?

Definitely getting Ember Warrior finished, Shadow Herald and Winter Herald revised, and most lovingly, updating the formatting with the new text and fun chapter headers.

#thanks for the ask!#writeblr
