And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer by Fredrik Backman
"We lived an extraordinarily ordinary life." "An ordinarily extraordinary life."
Wow. Just... just... Wow. Fredrik Backman never ceases to amaze me. The amount of creative heart and empathy and wit with which his writing is teeming is simply astonishing. How he can handle such emotionally heavy moments and themes with such expertly calculated care and much-needed brevity so constantly is a feat most could only dream of. This is such a beautifully imaginative little novella about coming to terms with forgetting... with saying goodbye. It's a lightning quick read that I'm certain I'll be thinking about for days (weeks?) to come. It'll have you bawling throughout - in the most satisfyingly cathartic manner possible - but never so much as in the wallop that is its final moments. Damn.
"It's too late now." She laughs inside his brain then. "Darling obstinate you. It's never too late to ask your son about something he loves."
10/10

The fact that Jason calling Tim his replacement isn't canon and Dick calling Jason his replacement is.

My Best Friend's Exorcism by Grady Hendrix
“Hot damn! We got ourselves a demon!”
Grady Hendrix's My Best Friend's Exorcism is a high-school comedy-horror that explores the bond of friendship with warm nostalgia while cleverly poking fun at the Satanic Panic that plagued the country in the 1980s, and delivering some effectively creepy/gross horror moments.
Hendrix writes these teenage girls incredibly well, making their friendship all the more emotionally rich and the demonic possession that threatens it all the more believable. He also understands the position Abby finds herself stuck in, making each frustrating moment of suspicion and distrust all the more infuriating. His prose flows as quickly as teenage girls tend to speak, making this light horror story an entertaining breeze. And thankfully, he writes the horror in a classically cinematic manner, forcing us to endure the moments alongside the characters. There's a great near-death at the high school that feels straight out of The Omen, an ice cream 'hangout' that grows into the stuff of Cronenberg's dreams, a heartbreaking, helpless moment ('off-screen', thankfully) including a dog and the titular exorcism, itself, which grows extremely dark before reaching its totally '80s climax.
Despite focusing heavily on the friendship and taking his sweet time getting to the really good stuff, here, Hendrix proves once again that he knows how to effectively walk that line between the horrifying and the heartfelt, the clever and the creepy. This might not be the best Grady Hendrix book I've read, but it's most definitely the most Grady Hendrix Grady Hendrix book I've read.
“Nothing was strong enough to stand against the passage of time.”
7.5/10
-Timothy Patrick Boyer.
