“Fast Car“ by Tracy Chapman
“The One I Love“ by REM
“Hallelujah“ by Leonard Cohen
“Stop Draggin' My Heart Around“ by Stevie Nicks & Tom Petty
“Push It“ by Salt-N-Pepa

Listen, math isn't my strong suit.

Also, I was reminded recently (by Rob Harvilla) that “Push It“ had a choreographed dance routine that went with it. I found a tutorial and my mind is BLOWN. In the words of S&P, “Let's Talk About“...a recovered memory!

Growing up, I remember going to our local movie rental place and seeing the cover of the Pet Sematary movie. It scared me.
Scary isn't the word I would use for the novel. It was horrifying, but not because of blood and gore and violence - though there is also that. What I found the most horrifying is the way it made me think of death, loss, and what makes us human.
BTW, Michael C Hall should narrate all creepy books. Perfect choice.

There is a surreal weight loss phenomena occurring with main character Scott, but this is really a story about accepting differences and caring for the people around you. Surprising and heartwarming — but if you‘re looking for scary, this isn‘t it. Maybe when King wrote this he thought the real world was scary enough?

There are so many musical acts that I'm aware of, have listened to a few songs, but haven't really given much thought or attention. Until a few days ago, Goldfrapp was one of those acts for me, but I somehow found myself listening to their album Supernature and wearing out the like button on Spotify. It's got so many attention-grabbing, danceable tracks. Really glad they came up on my streaming roulette!

“That was an odd thought. He supposed it must have come from his own head — where else could a thought come from? — but it somehow did not seem like his own thought at all.”

I'm really enjoying this series with its mix of authentic-feeling (to this non-cop) police procedural with supernatural elements. I like that Tony McLean 1) will not stop digging on a case until he gets the truth, even when that tenacity is detrimental to his career, 2) cares for the people on his team, 3) his response to the supernatural situations he finds himself in- a mixture of acceptance and exasperation- amuses me.

I knew I would love this and I‘m so happy I did! I was laughing at so many things and excited at others. A haunted house? A crazy woman? Who knows??? Do you stay in a haunted house or do you go?

1. Growing up in the countryside was so carefree, I often wonder if I grew up the city, how would I have been different!
2. Forks…I loved reading about this place in the tagged book. The trees, the rain etc

Emily Woo Zeller voice changed with the characters and she used variations of speed to put terror in her words in all the appropriate places! The writing was also excellent, I grew to love the characters, even the not so nice ones because they all had so much depth. It was written with the innocence of their youth so balanced and writing their emotional turmoil with that young innocence in mind that rang so true to me. Great book!
