Rated Doctor Who and the Abominable Snowmen 8/10

Really enjoyed finally knowing what happened in this lost serial. My 12 year old enjoyed it too.

Rated Boy, Snow, Bird 8/10

A strange little book - a quick, enjoyable read, shot through with touches of dreamlike/fairytale weirdness. A woman flees her abusive home in New York in the 1950s and marries into a slightly mysterious family in New England; the book is told from the perspective of this woman (the Boy of the title - that's her name) and her daughter (Bird) but also revolves around her relationship with her stepdaughter (Snow). Lots of metaphorically rich stuff about race and gender in mid-century America.

Rated The Chestnut Man 8/10

Rated Parable of the Sower 10/10

Gripping, grim, plausible near-future dystopia, with little to no paranormal nonsense and lots of intense, concrete depictions of life in a society that has spiraled out of control. Well told and a pretty fast read.

Rated What You Are Getting Wrong about Appalachia 8/10

Very thoughtful and compelling. Designed primarily as a corrective to books like [b:Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis|27161156|Hillbilly Elegy A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis|J.D. Vance|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1463569814s/27161156.jpg|47200486] and the coverage of Appalachia around the 2016 election, but worth reading on its own: a study of how Appalachia has been willfully misunderstood by people looking to extract either coal or political advantage from it, and the historic streak of radical politics that still exists, running counter to Appalachia's conservative electoral shift. Well worth reading and quick.
