Cool news out of this weekend’s Box Office: Annie Baker’s Janet Planet has hit 11 weeks at the top of the charts on its way to 7 billion dollars. Well deserved

A brilliant and clever review of sam sax's YR DEAD🐐in The Observer. Huge thanks to Miriam Balanescu for this careful reading of the novel. What a piece! theguardian.com/books/article/…

Another thoughtful review of YR DEAD! 'Lays bare the deep loneliness of living in the digital age; how others shape us; and how, out of the ashes of catastrophe (and despite the world’s ills), humanity shows through the cracks. There is hope.' theguardian.com/books/article/…

considering that I don’t even live in London, pretty chuffed with my hit rate for spotting famous people on the tube - last month Richard Gadd, and today Daryl McCormack (!)

Book PRs, what’s the best new literary fiction coming out between October and December? (There seems to be a tonne of reprints and first-time translations of older books - which is great - but looking specifically for new fiction by contemporary writers)

I liked Cuckoo. A film/premise that leaves some of its finer details a little overlooked, but Dan Stevens and Hunter Schafer are excellent. Also found a lot of the scares genuinely scary - and intrigued by the sapphic subtext of the whole thing

neighbours’ estate agent sent a drone over their house today during an inspection (presumably to take aerial view pics). Pls tell me this isn’t a thing?

adding my voice to the chorus saying go see Red Rooms - a skin-crawlingly compelling, disturbing but often also uncomfortably funny look at the darker sides of the internet in all its guises
