The ReReadables: Nevernight
Welcome to The ReReadables! It's an occasional series where I'll talk about books I keep coming back to. Anyone who reads has books that they have read multiple times, but they keep coming back to, like visiting an old friend. I certainly have these. And each time I read them, I find something new to enjoy.

Georgi ILYPublished about a year ago in GeeksThe Lost City is Actually Pretty Okay
Tonight I watched the Lost City starring Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum. I didn't expect alot from this movie and it was just a last minute "we need something to watch while we eat the pizza we just bought," kinda movie. My fiance literally said, "Get it, I'll literally watch anything," and so we did. And I'll be the first to admit there were much worse options to rent, and this one went pretty well with my bread sticks.
Anna ThomasPublished about a year ago in GeeksWhat Is The Funny?
Here I am on another Saturday night, staring at a screen and wondering what to do with myself. I spent most of the day at a book sale for a community organization and have just finished two separate earlier reads that I had put aside for far too long. I have also willfully sacrificed some other books for Montreal’s Livre-Service book boxes (a perfect way to contribute to public reading and a method of discovering what else is out there to cudgel the brains). As I cleaned up, I discovered some writings I had left on a shelf and wondered about for quite some time: S.J. Perlman’s New Yorker writings were there, a torn back cover and an intact front cover with the title The Rising Gorge. I had only read two or three pieces in it before abandoning it as a well-intentioned work of comedy that did not make me laugh. And now, as I attempted to read something light – Angela Carter and Mohsin Hamid were the writers I had imbibed earlier – I found the same difficulties facing me. I simply did not find it funny.
