Signal to Noise | Silvia Moreno-Garcia

pick

Not my favorite by this author but still a good read.
A coming-of-age/dual timeline story, involving teenagers casting spells by spinning the perfect record 🪄🎶.
She loses the plot a little, but never the characters ♥️

Reggie I love this book so much. Untamed Shore is my favorite by her but this is a close 2nd. 1m

Wylding Hall | Elizabeth Hand

I feel like Wylding Hall is one of the ultimate Rorschach books. I listened to the full cast audio (highly recommend) and all day I have been going back & forth on my opinion. Ambiguous in the way that the best Tremblay/ Jackson books were. If Daisy Jones & the 6 had to record their new album in a strange possibility haunted English countryside house and Daisy went missing afterwards, this is Hand's book. A head scratcher, ambiguous pick! Loved!!

vivastory (CONT): Bonus points for being a short, but very memorable, haunting audio book. What a great way to end the month! (Although, PSA: Horror is for the entire year ☠️👻) (edited) 22h

In Search of the Craic: One Man's Pub Crawl Through Irish Music | Colin Irwin

'Stand By Me' is the only song with its own fan club. It's true. There's a whole group of people who scour the world for different versions of the song and have meetings where they play newly discovered versions, discuss the lyrics and drink a toast to Ben E. King.

Singing in the Rain | Tim Hopgood, Arthur Freed, Nacio Herb Brown

The social media algorithm delivered this gem (which I missed when it originally aired back in 2009) unto me. It brought me a few minutes of joy, which I‘d love to pass on! 💎

Joseph Gordon-Levitt performs “Make Em Laugh” from Singin‘ in the Rain on SNL. Live! In one take!

I grew up watching this movie with my grandma. Core memories.

dabbe I've never heard that term before, but I absolutely love it and will incorporate it. #corememories 🖤🩶🖤 2d

monalyisha @dabbe That‘s so funny! I just looked up the phrase after seeing your comment and the internet keeps trying to tell me that it comes from the popularity of the movie(s) “Inside Out”… I swear I‘ve been using it forever! One source did say that the term‘s been around since the 1920‘s so maybe “core memories” is also a “core memory.” Could be one of those family colloquialisms? Or, I‘m delusional. 😉😅 1d

nanuska_153 I love Singin' in the rain ❤️ and I've been in love with Joseph Gordon Levitt since I was a kid, so perfect match 1d

dabbe @monalyisha It's the perfect term to describe a memory embedded deep in your soul! INSIDE OUT stole it from you! 😂😍 23h

TieDyeDude I recently watched Flora and Son and Mr. Corman on Apple TV, and realized how much I've been lacking JGL in my life. I also got this video in my algorithm recently, and it is brilliant. I had forgotten about it; supposedly, they didn't get the rights to the song to be able to reair it on reruns 😮‍💨 (edited) 2h

monalyisha @TieDyeDude Mr. Corman looks so good! Upsetting that I didn't know about it and that there's only one season! 2h
