re-watching "Shadowlands" and it's so amazing how much of a film I can remember 100000% but how much of it also unspools like a stranger, I don't even remember forgetting so many scenes!
But I did love the scenes set in The Eagle and Child, aka "The Bird & Baby" to which I pilgrimaged whilst in #Oxford last month but sadly it has closed.
I'd hoped to raise a glass to Col Lewis, Jack, and Tolkien.
My #bookreview is brief/won't spoil, to spread good, great, & spectacular #horror#books far & wide.
Upon finishing NORTH AMERICAN LAKE MONSTERS I sat, quietly devastated by the elegant, bleak prose that spooled out stories of souls broken by fate, circumstance, tragedy, &/or the random cruelties of others. Beautiful, savage, resonant. A "must-read" collection.

Thank you for this recommendation! I hadn't heard of this book but I've purchased it & downloaded it to to my phone & am now listening while fixing Sunday night dinner
