This technically isn’t a book or comic by Neil Gaiman, but rather dream stories contributed to a publication called Roarin’ Rick’s Rare Bit Fiends and we’re treated to four of Neil’s dreams. While I have[…]
Art Matters by Neil Gaiman, Illustrated by Chris Riddell
This was a quick read. It took me maybe 20 minutes while I did my morning walk indoors, and this is largely due to the letters being big and the illustrations sometimes doubly so. Art[…]
Mostly Harmless by Douglas Adams
Ok, I know I’ve read Mostly Harmless before, but I must admit I recalled absolutely nothing reading it the second time around. I don’t know if it’s a good thing, or a bad thing, but[…]
Marvel’s Jessica Jones, season 3
So I decided to backtrack a little and watch the final season of Marvel’s Jessica Jones before moving on to my N’s. Since it was over I thought, why not get it over with instead[…]
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: The Trilogy of Four by Douglas Adams
More than sixteen years have passed since I first read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and I would say that’s a pretty good timeframe for picking up a book for a second go round.[…]
Early Riser by Jasper Fforde
Picture this: climate change is real, and humanity is forever affected by it. But instead of retreating ice caps, the reverse is reality – winters are deep, dark and dangerous, with temperatures plummeting to -40C[…]
Louis Vuitton Travel Book: Tokyo by Eboy
I came across this series of illustrated travel books by Louis Vuitton while browsing Tsutaya in Ginza Six. Mesmerized by the vividness of the colour, the quirkiness of the imagery, and since I was in[…]
Manuscript Found in a Milkbottle by Neil Gaiman
Neil Gaiman may consider this to be one of the worst stories he’s ever written, but I admit I quite enjoyed the little story that is Manuscript Found in a Milkbottle. James Pond uncovers something[…]
Galápagos by Kurt Vonnegut
Sometimes I wonder if science fiction writers really can see into the future. And by the future I don’t necessarily mean the technological side of things. Flying cars aren’t exactly commonplace after all. But Kurt[…]
Late Night (2019)
Since I watched one movie with Emma Thompson, I thought I’d keep the ball rolling with Late Night, a movie about a long-time late night talk show host who finds herself becoming irrelevant in an[…]
Men in Black: International (2019)
What is Men in Black: International without Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones? Not too shabby, to my surprise. Maybe it helps that we have a little eye candy in the form of Chris Hemsworth,[…]
Tell-All by Chuck Palahniuk
Chuck Palahniuk’s last few books have kind of been hit or miss for me. Thankfully, I quite enjoyed Tell-All, a book that takes place in the golden age of Hollywood and tells us all the[…]
Bohemian Rhapsody (2018)
Wow. I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to watch Bohemian Rhapsody, and even though it was a ‘censored’ version onboard a flight, the movie still pulled at my heart strings and had me[…]
Japanese Tales by Royall Tyler
Japanese Tales is a collection of classic, mostly mythical tales from early Japanese literature. I quite enjoyed the collection, even though it did take me a few pages to get into the flow of the[…]
Murder Mystery (2019)
Ha! I feel it’s been awhile since Happy Madison put out a movie, at least that I know of, and this one for Netflix was a hoot! Titled Murder Mystery, it is exactly what one[…]
Modern Family, season 5-9
Is it weird that Modern Family feels like actual family? A little dysfunctional, a little crazy and a lot of funny, they’re definitely my favourite tv family and I am going to miss them when[…]
Slade House by David Mitchell
Before you start reading Slade House you might want to read The Bone Clocks by the same author. While Slade House isn’t part two of a series – or part of a series at all[…]
I Love You Too Much by Alicia Drake
This is not the novel to read if you’re looking for a soft and fluffy read. This is not the novel to read if you want that perfectly penned outcome where everyone lives happily ever[…]
500 Words You Should Know by Caroline Taggart
500 Words You Should Know sounds like a boring, dictionary-like read, but to be honest, it was actually quite entertaining. Caroline Taggart takes on these words with a little bit of sass and attitude, which,[…]
Love, Fishie by Maddy Gaiman
One of the titles in Neil Gaiman’s humble bundle deal is Love, Fishie, a cute compilation of poems-ish written by his daughter, Maddy, at the age of 8. They’re playful, fun and exactly what they[…]
Men Without Women by Haruki Murakami
Haruki Murakami’s Men Without Women is a collection of short stories based on a somewhat non typical theme – men, without women. While it is also the title of the final short story in the[…]
