My Favorite Dystopian/Apocalyptic Books

I’m a fan of dystopian fiction, but I’m a bit finicky about it. I tend to stay away from Young Adult dystopian (no Hunger Games or Divergent series, thank you). I usually like more literary-minded picks, but there are exceptions. I’ve been reading Octavia Butler, so I started thinking about my favorite dystopian novels. Here they are, in no particular order: The Stand, by Stephen King…

Are We Living In A Dystopian Novel?

Are We Living in a Dystopian Novel? When Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games series had a renaissance on TikTok in anticipation of the release of the latest film, A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, it dawned on me how important and almost prophetic Young Adult (YA) dystopian literature has become. While any well-written book is capable of captivating readers, dystopian literature pushes the…

The Handmaid's Tale, Could it Happen?

The Handmaid’s Tale is a creepy welldone series. If you haven’t seen it, I highly suggest watching it. In a nut shell, it’s basically what happens when over zealous sheeple take over and throw women back in time where they have no rights. There is more to it than that though. In reading what’s going on today in America the land of free speech, The Handmaid’s Tale came to mind. For some odd…

Daily Comic Journal: May 3, 2021: Being A Binge Watching Couch Potato Isn't For Me."

Daily Comic Journal: May 3, 2021: Being A Binge Watching Couch Potato Isn’t For Me.”

The more we progress with technology (DVR’s, Streaming, etc.. ) the less control we have over certain things. For example, if my VCR still worked (which it doesn’t and come to think of it, I probably threw it out) I could have recorded all 39 episodes, 39 hours over several blank VCR tapes to watch one at a time over the next several weeks at my leisure. Like I used to do back in the 90’s and…
