Top 10 Spooky Reads/Books for October

I thought I'd put together some of my favorite creepy-type reads in another Top 10 list, because I clearly can't help myself. The video was posted earlier this month, but somehow didn't get to posting here until the end ... but at least I made it! I'll pat myself on the back for anything!

Top 10 Science Fiction Books of ALL Time (THE Definitive SciFi List)

As with my fantasy books list, this is just as definitive and all-encompassing. You think I can't read every book ever written and even the ones currently being written? Well, I say you're probably thinking along some very sane lines.

Audiobook Review - Consider Phlebas (Culture #1) by Iain M. Banks

Here's my Audiobook Review for Consider Phlebas by Iain M. Banks, book 1 in the Culture series, though it's the second book I've read from the same series. The book ... and review ... are a bit disjointed, but that was intentional to match the book ... I'll stick with that.

August 2021 Monthly Update - Centering the Shelf

Wherein I provide a monthly update ... without actually talking about the books I read. To quote Seinfeld: "Should I have not done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing was frowned upon, you know"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwz_QA69djM

I also talk about my funky Dune misprint. Let me know if you have the same misprint, I found a couple more people who had the same one...
