2024 was a good year for stories. Here are some of my faves:
Top 5 Books
This book was randomly selected for me by my eight-year-old niece. Along with my trip to Normandy, it will one day serve as inspiration for a war story I'll tell.
This book is creepy af. If you have even an iota of claustrophobia or fear of the ocean, don't read this.
A love-ish story. You don't get very many of these from me, so check it out.
I loved the dead-pan comedy in this one.
My intro to Brandon Sanderson and his masterful worldbuilding.
Top Podcasts
I like my true crime historical.
Another Kate Winkler Dawson podcast (she does Buried Bones) . I love hearing how other authors talk about the choices they make in presenting a story, especially non-fiction authors, and especially true stories.
This one's all about creepy stories - from true crime to hauntings. And I really appreciate how much she makes you feel like you're part of a community.
Top Movies
No other movies even came close to touching this one. Good luck topping this one, Marvel.
Miniseries
Like Deadpool and Wolverine, Arcane is the end-all-be-all of miniseries, especially the first season. Good luck topping this one, Netflix.
(You can see my thoughts on Arcane here - but be warned: there are spoilers).
