Fifty Shades of Liveblogging Part II (with even more NSFW Language and an updated drinking game)

March 21, 2015 by TyburnBlossom 4 Comments

I already liveblogged reading Fifty Shades of Grey, wherein there was a lot of swearing and a drinking game was born. If you missed it, you can find it here. There’s…um…a lot more swearing this time. And an updated version of the drinking game at the end.

50 Shades of Liveblogging and a Drinking Game (NSFW Language Ahoy)

March 9, 2015 by TyburnBlossom 14 Comments

Rather than attempting to review Fifty Shades of Grey, I present my live read of the book. Herein you’ll find lots of cussing, lots of shouting, and definitely not safe for work descriptions of plenty of things. And it’s very long, because it turns out I had a lot to say while I was reading. A drinking game evolved during the reading, and the whole thing has been compiled at the end, if that’s the sort of thing you’re interested in.

No, seriously. Don't see this movie.

Quoth the Raven “Oh, God, What for?” – Supernatural: Nevermore

March 5, 2015 by sistercoyote Leave a Comment

So…I paid for and read authorized Supernatural fanfiction. It wasn’t the worst thing I’ve ever read. But it wasn’t the best, either. I can’t decide if I’m curious enough to read more or not. I may just stick with AO3. Here there be .gifs and .jpgs. Because of course there are.

Roll with the Insanity, it’s Amazeballs

‘Kill Ball’ is the story of a lonely guy, Colin, who accidentally caused his mother’s death when he was a kid. All he’s ever wanted was to be held, but the increasingly isolated world he lives in has made this desire impossible. He becomes obsessed with a stripper he believes he has a special connection with. A killer is stalking the streets and seems to have his sights set on Colin’s girl. Oh yeah, and everyone rolls around in giant hamster balls. How could I […]

I think people remember this book for the wrong reasons.

February 12, 2015 by narfna 4 Comments

Here’s what I knew about Carrie before I picked up this book: 1. Sissy Spacek played Carrie in the movie from the 1970s. 2. There was a scene in a shower with Carrie’s period and tampon throwing. 3. She is a loser who gets invited to the prom by the most popular boy in her class as a cruel joke instigated by her classmates. 4. At the prom, they elect her prom queen and then dump a bucket of pig’s blood on her. She snaps and her telekinetic […]

Lots more Whacks

February 9, 2015 by sistercoyote Leave a Comment

Lizzie Borden took an ax… Those of us familiar with Lizzie’s story (or just with the rhyme) believe we know what happened next. Cherie Priest, though, looked at the variety of facts available, asked herself the writer’s favorite question (“What if…?”), and came up with an almost entirely different story. Though father and (step-) mother still take their whacks.
