What better way to start off spooky season than a little horror book review from one of our very own! You know those trope boards? Those ones all over booktok? I despise, no I abhor those things because if you only ever pick books like you're ordering at Chipotle, you might never pick up a book like this.

The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy. Top Story - September 2026.
The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy As I take the time to write this, I had just purchased this novel, The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy. It’s been over a year maybe two since I have read a novel and I’m looking forward to reading this one.

Penelope Was the Real Hero of “The Odyssey” All Along. Top Story - August 2026.
Mention Homer’s Odyssey , and the first name that comes to mind is undoubtedly Odysseus. Hard to blame a fellow Greek for that, seeing how he lends his name to the title. After all, this is a hero of warring and wandering - a soldier who survived the Trojan War, fought off storms at sea, and even outsmarted gods and mythical creatures on his way home. It took him ten long years to get back to his homeland of Ithaca, but he finally made it.

The Outlander effect.
On the 1st of June 1991 , the first book of Outlander by Diana Gabaldon was published. The novel started an unexpected journey throughout ages. The phenomenon built a strong community of Outlander (and Scottish) fans around the world. It raised interest in Scottish history and tourism, which only doubled when the TV show premiered in 2014.
