Stephen King Short Story
This is a review of Stephen King's short story, The Death of Jack Hamilton. John Dillinger was a criminal in his teens. When he was arrested for beating up a businessman, his father told him to plead guilty and take his punishment. The problem is they punished 20-year-old Johnnie too severely with a 10-20-year sentence, although he had no previous record. His accomplice, who had a record, had a good lawyer and only did a few years. Dillinger's wife of four years divorced him. He did nine years, part of which he did in the Indiana penitentiary, at his request, because he played ball and said their team was better.

"The House That Horror Built": An Unexpectedly Enjoyable Gothic Mystery
I enjoyed Christina Henry’s 2020 novel The Ghost Tree and its classic take on small town horror. Her latest published novel, The House That Horror Built was one of my most anticipated books of 2024. The premise of a housekeeper working for a famous horror director sounded like a treat for fans of the genre.

Audiobook Review: Camp Cacophony by Jessica Khoury
It’s two months before Amelia’s big audition for the Mystwick School of Musicraft. If she gets in, she will learn to spin music into powerful magic - but her Gran has one last-ditch plan to persuade her out of it: sports camp. A week of softball, sprinting, and sweaty socks isn't exactly Amelia’s idea of a good time - in fact, she's deeply, appallingly unathletic. By the end of day one, she’s puked her guts out in track, gotten a black eye in no-contact flag football, and firmly established herself as the Least Valuable Player at camp. As head counselor, Coach Shawn is determined to make an athlete of Amelia, despite her complete inability to land a single basket in basketball and her high effectiveness at scoring in the wrong net in soccer. And all Amelia wants is some time to herself, so she can practice her flute for the Mystwick auditions. But everyone’s plans are quickly derailed by a series of disasters that strike camp, putting everyone in mortal danger. It's clear that strange magic is at work, and as the only musician around, Amelia suddenly goes from benchwarmer to MVP. But can she discover the source of the malevolent magic - and how to stop it - before the deadly spell reaches its crescendo?

THE 1995 PRIDE & PREJUDICE SUCKS!
Okay, so it doesn't suck. I actually do enjoy the 1995 version of Pride & Prejudice, directed by Simon Langton. However, I believe that the 2005 version, directed by Joe Wright, is the superior version! And although I should just be able to say "it's better" and this be the end of the article (because it is just factually correct), I will provide my evidence now as to why 2005 Pride & Prejudice is better than 1995 Pride & Prejudice.
