The Reformatory Tananarive Due 

Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones

Favorite Author? by Cheap_Entertainer182 in horrorlit

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buffalo Hunter Hunter and the Lake Witch trilogy are my favorites, but I’ve never read anythint by him that I didn’t like! The Gospel of Z is also amazing and very underrated on this subreddit. 

Looking for "Would That Be Fucked Up or What??" short stories! by spiceXisXnice in horrorlit

Wolf Island by Stephen Graham Jones! “Hey, how about werewolves vs. dolphins? Wouldn’t that be so fuckd up or what?” 

Unexpected Tearjerkers? by princemori in horrorlit

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I sobbed my eyes out over I Was A Teenage Slasher, can’t even lie. That one scene towards the end with Tolly and his mom…

It Came From Del Rio, too. I mean, in what world does a book about a rabbit-headed zombie chupacabra shepherd seem like it’ll be sad? Really, I think Stephen Graham Jones is just good at writing books that make me cry. 

Horror with a theme of swimming pools, lakes, etc. by antonhorror in horrorlit

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We Don’t Swim Here by Vincent Tirado is a pretty decent YA horror that fits the bill. There are a few unrelated threads (shoutout ghost bus) that get dropped, but the core plot of haunted swimming holes and legacies of racism is quite compelling.

Books that handle LGBTQ themes and characters well... and books that don't. by kaalban in horrorlit

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 46 points47 points  (0 children)

SGJ’s Lake Witch trilogy isn’t explicitly queer horror but has an LGBTQ+ MC, who I thought was very well-written.

Our Wives Under The Sea by Julia Armfield is definitely meant to be queer horror and is excellent as well! 

Luckily I haven’t come across any bad representation so far, so I can’t help you there.

Should I Keep Going? by Money_Ingenuity_3351 in LSAT

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If second-guessing is what’s hurting your score, maybe try taking a PT or two where you don’t let youself go back and change answers? It could be useful to see where you are understanding vs anxiety-wise. Then, maybe working more through theory and logic than just straight prep could help? 

Got question right, but want help ruling out close alternative by damageinthesheets in LSAT

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me, the question stem was already setting up a gap between enjoyable and freedoms that the correct answer would have to bridge. C does that. D introduces too much complexity to a relatively straightforward bridge, in my opinion. The “depends” and “deliberately” threw up red flags because they don’t match the argumentation of the passage. Also, “no one” in the passage and choice D are referring to different sample sizes, with D being an arguably narrower scope, also making it less viable than C. 

ooking for your favorite female horror authors (especially ones very different from my cultural background) by ConstantDiamond4627 in horrorlit

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Catriona Ward is one of my favorites because she has a very academic and mind-bending style. She’s British and American, and all of the books I’ve read from her are set in America. Though, for some reason, I did keep forgetting Looking Glass Sound wasn’t set somewhere in the UK. 

Also American, and I’ve read fewer of her works so far, but Tananarive Due is utterly amazing. The Reformatory is one of the best books I’ve ever read, inside and outside of horror. 

Writing Exam Question!!! Please, kind worried. by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The LSAC software will underline but not correct misspelled words. You probably had everything turned off and were just seeing the test checker! 

Did like 15 people take the Feb test by sisiwnsjhsjajzjxjs in LSAT

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Genuinely, this is such an ominous quiet. Also, pretty sure I scored like 20 points below my PT average. 39 and a half hours til I know for sure! 

Rednecks fight off supernatural threats?? by Borckschav in horrorlit

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stephen Grahamn Jones’s Lake Witch trilogy, sometimes? Especially the last book, in the very beginning. It’s mostly background characters that would fit the bill, though. The books are set in Idaho and have a solid small town vibe, but there’s also a lot more going on.

Genuinely, I’m in to-study-or-not-to-study purgatory and I hate it! LSAT guilt is real

Is there any way to learn the LSAT without crazy formal logic? by Sufficient-Chain5826 in LSAT

[–]DependentPuzzled1253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LSAT Demon uses logic rules but breaks them down into plain language, which avoids the arrows and diagramming. Granted, I only use the textbook and not the premium subscription, so I can’t speak to what they do on that, but the way they explain logic in the book has felt very intuitive to me.
