What Greek myth to adapt next?
Now I won’t deny I love greek myth adaptations, I’ve read Percy Jackson, The Goddess Test, Goddess Girls, Oh My Gods, so on and so forth. They’re epic in its largeness, its weirdness and dysfunction.

Stay Sexy and Don’t Get Murdered Review

Thoughts on Joan Didion
I’m going to keep this short since this is probably an unpopular opinion, but I’m not sure what makes Didion so incredible. I just read Slouching Towards Bethlehem and Let Me Tell You What I Mean, and they were fine.
