Watched the trailer for the Odyssey. Definitely going to see it in the theatre. Looks like there be the monsters from the story, which is cool. Looks very moody and atmospheric. Nice

Started reading the latest novel by Tasha Suri, The Isle in the Silver Sea. Fantastic. I love the setting, an England where the characters from stories reincarnate again and again, reliving their stories. It’s a book I don’t want to put down.
