- And to add more to your “to watch” list, check out Rotten Tomatoes Best TV and Streaming Series of 2022 (So Far).
- Am I the only person not really into podcasts? I feel like I can’t add another type of media to my life right now … but that doesn’t stop me from thinking one day I might get into it, so I bookmarked The Podcasts Our (Camille Styles) Editors Listen To for an Instant Mood Boost.
- The nominees for the 2022 World Fantasy Awards have been announced. I’ve read 2 of the 5 nominees for Best Novel (The Last House on Needless Street, Catriona Ward, and A Master of Djinn, P. Djèlí Clark) and will definitely read the others.
