Current reading: The Undying Monster: A Tale of the Fifth Dimension, by Jessie Douglas Kerruish, a werewolf novel first published in 1922.
![[Psychic detective Luna Bartendale speaking]
"Still he dabbled in arts forbidden, between the gallant days of Bosworth and the final rest in the odour of bought sanctity. The early Tudor period was a time of great mental progress, good and bad, like our own early Windsor era. Some strong intellects unravelled the wholesome, useful secrets of nature. Others gorged like ghouls on the unholy remains of mental abominations an elder age had tested and tried to consign to the grave. Necromancy will seduce the noblest minds, as we have painful evidence in our own age. And the evil a man does may haunt those who come after him to the end of time, while he rests in peace himself."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ife2jqufel3qgu66btmimr2p/bafkreicsxbotb4gcjuh7cjlun6y72w4lffdlvkbp263v3qrro4h6yxismq@jpeg)

Recently read: The Black Guy Dies First: Black Horror Cinema from Fodder to Oscar by Robin R. Means Coleman, PhD, and Mark H. Harris. Saga Press, 2023.
Thoughtful, richly informative, and entertaining. My one complaint is the lack of an index, because I'd like to use this book as a reference work.

Recently read: We Mostly Come Out At Night, edited by Rob Costello.
An anthology of queer monster stories—as in, the monsters are queer. YA. I wish books like this had been available when I was a young adult, and I wouldn't hesitate to give this to a young adult in my life.

Went to a terrific poetry reading at a local bookstore I’ve never been to before (Flagship Books in Kansas City KS) and might have found a book while I was there.
