Excellent review of Bride: "The Bride! is a movie about the power of movies, and about the trope of the instrumentalized woman, and about the injustice of being robbed of your voice and the exhilaration of seizing it back."

It's not suspense so much as action through which the characters tell me who they are. So the balancing happens when I let them do what they must do.

Excellent essay by Andrew Liptak on George Martin's struggle to finish the Game of Thrones novels.
[The autocorrect keeps changing Liptak to Lipton, no matter what I do. Apologies to the author!]

Interesting review of Plur1bus by Arturo Serrano: "This is what grief feels like. The genius trick of Plur1bus is that it takes the “as if” feeling and makes it literal."

After Book of the New Sun I couldn't resist the audiobook of Urth of the New Sun - where the Christian parallels get a bit overwhelming. Now it's time to read all five novels in print before I try to write something about them. Probably a foolhardy project, but that's what I like to do.
