![]() ![]() The main one of course shadows Reva as her bad behavior catches up to her. Silent Night is split into two parallel plots. So the perpetrator behind the lipstick stunt and other sick jokes to come - more like warnings - could be anyone. Reva, on the other hand, has practically made it her job to be disliked. ![]() Now, for the average person, it might be easy to pin down a viable suspect most folks don’t go around making enemies. However, being so unkind finally leads to consequences when Reva finds a needle in her lipstick. Reva has never met a mean thought she didn’t like. This spoiled brat is spending her winter break working at her father’s department store, Dalby’s, and making the lives of those around her a living hell. The first book in the Silent Night trilogy introduces the notorious Reva Dalby, one of the snottiest teenagers to ever come out of Shadyside. And without question the protagonist goes down as one of Stine’s most memorable characters to date - the reasons why, however, aren’t exactly flattering. The second volume in the spinoff series Fear Street: Super Chiller was the first in the overall franchise to explicitly take place around Christmas. And if someone wasn’t familiar with Stine’s fondness for humor, they might be surprised to see Silent Night as one of his top picks. Stine managed to narrow his personal favorites down to eight books. ![]() Of all the many Fear Street stories he’s written, author R. ![]()

![]() It’s the exact same format as the Magnus Archives (short stories linked by one overall plot). Correct because, it’s certainly the length of a novel, but incorrect because it just isn’t a novel. Sadly, my assumption that I’d get to see Jonathan taken on a novel-length work was both correct and incorrect. The curiosity at seeing Jonathan go for a novel-length piece and the stunning cover, not to mention the awesome blurb, had me plumping for this one without question. ![]() ![]() ![]() My Rating of ‘Thirteen Storeys’: 3 out of 5Īs a huge fan of the Magnus Archives (Jonathan Sims horror short story podcast in which the stories are all loosely connected by one over-arching plotline) I was thrilled to see he had a novel out.

Besides the work of Houston Baker, I cannot think of a more exciting reassessment of black literature that has been published in many years. Gates' overview of Afro-American writing (mostly fiction, but with asides to other literary forms) is comprehensive, almost mind-boggling, and above all brilliantly original. Both writers have been honored by numerous awards, yet reading their criticism in tandem, I often felt that they themselves had read different works that coincidentally shared the same titles and authors. ![]() Johnson has published three volumes of his own fiction. Gates has spent the last few years resuscitating from obscurity a number of early texts by black American authors (and midwifing them back into print). Both authors are academics (Gates at Cornell, Johnson at the University of Washington). FOR THE LIFE of me, I can't imagine two studies of Afro-American fiction more extreme in their differences than these two volumes by Henry Louis Gates Jr. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() For him, the arts represent essential truths apprehended by the mind.

The Poetics is the last work of Aristotle. ![]() His treatises and lectures on philosophy have always been highly regarded. He remained head of the school until 323 BC, when he left Athens for Euboea, where he died in 322 BC. In the walks surrounding it he gave lectures on philosophy to many scholars while walking up and down, for which the school was named Peripatetic. In 335 BC Aristotle returned to Athens where the state gave him the Lyceum. Plato had a high regard for him, calling him the "intellect of his school." He stayed in Athens until the death of Plato in 347 BC, and after several residences elsewhere he was invited in 342 BC by Philip of Macedonia to instruct his son, Alexander, who was then 13. In 367 BC he went to Athens to study with Plato. Lehmann and Jonathan SlocumĪristotle was born in Macedonia in 384 BC.
