Bag of Bones by Stephen King
Just when you think you know what kind of novel Stephen King produces, he goes ahead and surprises you...

Hereditary
I love Toni Colette's performances for their grace and subtlety (Emma) and laugh out loud humour (Muriel's Wedding).

Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov
I'll start this 'Monday Musings' from John C Adams Reviews by mentioning that the premise of 'Pale Fire' is very simple.

Deadhouse Gates by Steven Erikson
This sword-and-sorcery fantasy novel is the second in the 'The Malazan Book of the Fallen' series.

The Forge in the Forest by Michael Scott Rohan
In some ways, 'The Forge in the Forest' from Michael Scott Rohan is an entirely typical quest epic in the realm of fantasy.

Ozark
When I first saw 'Ozark' float across the Netflix screen, my instant thought was 'So, Breaking Bad then?'

Mystery in White by J Jefferson Farjeon
Part of the joy of browsing through bookshops is the chance discovery of a forgotten classic.

The Magicians' Guild by Trudi Canavan
Full on urban fantasy in a sorcerer's world set partly in the city slums and partly in the rarified atmosphere of the Magician's Guild.

Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit by Jeanette Winterson
Sometimes when you read a book you don't know whether to laugh or cry. It is just so with 'Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit'.

Ghosts
'Ghosts' is a BBC sitcom featuring a cast familiar to viewers of the long-running children's show 'Horrible Histories'.
