KPop Demon Hunters, 2025 movie. I loved everything about this - fantastic soundtrack, distinctive cool-looking animation, appealing characters, central relationships between women, fun plot, fast and flowing pacing.

After having little to no interest in the 2025 Hugo Dramatic Longs, it's funny to think I'm already enthusiastic about three plausible nominees for 2026 (those being Sinners, Superman, and this, with Superman a distinct-enough third I might not nominate it myself for nomination-gaming reasons.).

Hemlock & Silver, T Kingfisher, 2025 fantasy novel. My hold queue really did me a solid giving me this book this weekend, exactly in time to have enough of it left to keep me company through three hours of waiting my turn for voir dire this morning. Perfect to have an effortless-to-read, entertaining page-turner (in contrast to my other current book, which might turn out to be good but is not effortless). Like I often say, I like Vernon's stuff and this was one (particularly the "breaking a fairytale down for parts and rebuilding it into something new" kind of thing, although also structurally a lot like what she does in her contemporary horror). It was cinematic and inventive and I liked the protagonist and definitely recommend it if you like Vernon.

Also I am now on a jury for the next two weeks.
