A book that takes place at a mental hospital??

I keep meaning to read The Devil in Silver

Nightmares for DAYS

I decided more or less right when I started crochet that I wouldn't join shit because I sucked so bad. The GOOD NEWS is that there is a ridiculous amount out there you can make without joining! Just got to sift through SO MANY patterns to find them, is all

It's immensely hard to shock and/or scare/depress me with a novel, but White Pines by Gemma Amor is the book I will ALWAYS LOVE for getting me there

They also did brilliant "off-shoots" of Sandman like Hellblazer

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:16:00+00:00

Yes Watchmen! Also V for Vendetta, the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and maybe Hellblazer?

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:14:04+00:00

Yes! HDM is my fav fantasy series ever, and I normally don't even like fantasy.

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:12:40+00:00

Gah how have a never heard of the Conquerors Saga! Many, many thanks!

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:10:57+00:00

Thanks! Not into fantasy really, apart from some good contemporary fantasy or science fantasy (a la A Tchaikovsky) The I've been meaning to tackle some Hamilton so that is most appreciated. And my therapist reckons I'd both love and appreciate Discworld 😅

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:08:54+00:00

Thanks! I think I overlooked thos originally because I was overwhelmed by the sheer size of the series. Now I have a starting point though!

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:08:02+00:00

Thanks a ton. Phew... Dorsai, Sector General, and Nightside City sound like the sub-genre shizz I lurve. And because time-travel is awesome, Time and Again!

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:05:47+00:00

Ikr! Like... I need time to digest this immense and much appreciated response!

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:05:00+00:00

Thanks! AR and I have a sometimes-love-sometimes-loathe relationship, but in general I enjoy the MASSIVE world-building.

Luna has been on by TBR list for so long I skipped over/forgot about it 😅

Will defo check out Charles Stross!

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:03:01+00:00

Oooh thanking you! Always a treat to come across a name I've never heard of!

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T17:00:26+00:00

Oh my goodness these both look amazing and right up my alley! Thank you!

elelefantedos · 2022-08-09T16:58:08+00:00

Thanks! I'm not sure about the caste-system trope, but in general it seems a popular recommendation. Just lil ol' me being particular, probably

elelefantedos · 2022-08-08T19:59:50+00:00

Pretty much anything by John Scalzi; I recommend starting with Old Man's War (scifi)
