I don't usually mind research holes unless I'm in a hurry! Spent five hours on figuring out British coinage in the late 19th century and trying to determine how wealthy Dr John Watson actually would have been, once.

Is the story scary? Yes! Is the atmosphere suitably ominous? Yes! Am I suddenly doing research, thirty-five pages from the end, because a niggling thought turned into a full-blown 'waaaait a minute'? Also yes.

This skeet brought to you by the last half an hour which I've spent educating myself on both diver lingo and rebreathers after I started to suspect that Coates's explanation for why the X in From Below do Y did not *quite* hold water.

Do not, I repeat, do not read From Below by Darcy Coates if you're a diver. You will pop a vessel when you realise that the author often uses air and oxygen interchangeably, as in "98% air" and "98% oxygen". I know. I know. You don't want to know what she does with rebreathers.

Darcy Coatesin 2022 julkaistu sukellus/hylky-teemainen kauhuromaani From Below muuten sijoittuu Pohjanlahdelle noin seitsemänkymmentä kilometriä Ruotsin itärannikolta. Olen tietämättäni omistanut Itämeri-kauhua!
(Toki on myös Johanna Sinisalon risteilynovelli "Tango merellä".)

There we go: #TheTwistedOnes, finished. A solid 3/5 EEKs with a suitably varied and sensible cast of characters, intriguing story and an ending that makes you think.
Kiiiiind of suffers from 'less scary when the monster is revealed', but maybe it just transforms into a different kind of scary.

About a fifth from the end and I have so many questions & thoughts!
(Unfortunately nowhere near as scary as I was hoping for - maybe three EEKs out of five - but an interesting story)

Finished listening to The Old Gods of Appalachia only a few days ago; reading The Twisted Ones now feels like expanding on that sense of dread. Nice.

I've been a Neil Gaiman fan my entire life, he's been incredibly influential to my own work. He can also go eat shit and should own up to what he did. I'm perfectly capable of holding both these truths, so anyone who makes excuses for him can go fuck themselves.

Gaimanhan ei kiellä suhteita (25 vuotta nuorempaan faniinsa ja *checks papers* 40 vuotta nuorempaan lastenhoitajaan, jonka oli tavannut samana päivänä 🤢), ainoastaan sen että seksuaalista väkivaltaa olis tapahtunut.

"Scarlett, 23, alleges that Gaiman sexually assaulted her within hours of their first meeting ... she worked as a nanny to his child. ... Gaiman’s account is that they only “cuddled” and “made out” in the bath." The mind, it BOGGLES

Ystäväni neuloo näitä ihania tassusukkia hintaan 30e/pari. Tuotto menee yllättävän 3000 euron eläinlääkärilaskun maksamiseen. Sukkia on normivarrella ja mun jaloissa olevilla minivarsilla. Jos innostuit, laita mulle dm, niin saat yhteystiedot.
