Watching

This is the most artistic Paul Leder movie I've seen. It's not the slasher I expected, but it's pretty decent.

My wife bought me this. I'm leery, but let's give it a try.

Reading

From the same lot as yesterday's. It's from '61, but the writing style feels archaic. It feels like Conan Doyle trying to pastiche Erle Stanley Gardner.

It's similar to, though brisker in toke than, John D. MacDonald's "rich guy having problems" novels.

This is completely unacceptable this early in the season. I'm not done with fall. Not by a long shot.

My Guilty read-through continues with “Play It Cool” by @brandonbarrows.bsky.social, the tale of a bored group of friends who goes out looking for trouble and finds it…with a twist. A little different writing style from Brandon in this one, which I dug.
