(A blast from the past. This peculiar series was both very in step with the popular books of the time and yet unlike them. If you haven’t read it, here’s an old review of the first book. – Brandon Scott) Originally Published: September 16th, 2019 Miss Peregrine’s: A Peculiar Hit Of A Book My initial…
Miss Peregrine’s: A Peculiar Hit Of A Book My initial worry regarding Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children was that it was going to be too much a superhero book, too much an X-Men knock off, or some wannabe Harry Potter, but with a twist. The title seemed to promise as much, after all, and…

I think there might be something wrong with science fiction writers. Which is quite the statement, because I am a science fiction writer. Why do we like to end the world so much? What is so inherently appealing about destroying it? Is it because we have a grudge against society, and this is our way…

Let’s just forget about The Hunger Games and Divergent (which are still, in my opinion, good movies) for a moment…
This is N. Demmy’s final piece with us. You may know him as the creator of our “Retrospectacle” series. Though he’ll be moving on to other things, we’ll definitely miss his intellectual, humorous reviews of older films (including this one). Thanks, N. Demmy, for all the great work you did.
