read: don't believe it by Charlie Donlea

Story of an investigative journalist who writes a documentary to uncover the potential innocence of a person in jail.

She uncovers evidence to prove the innocence but at the same time uncovers the real murderer. The plot twist was interesting. Ends with a sort of cliffhanger I suppose.

When I got to Chapter 2 it was perplexing given that it seemed I jumped to another story. But loved the build up with each of the murder and how Holly unraveled the threads.

This is not a supernatural horror story unlike many of Stephen King's. But of a natural evil that exists in humans, greedy, in this case, for life.

It references to another story which I'm now drawn to read.

I enjoyed Danny Coughlin's Bad Dream because of the way it panned out and what that said about human nature and the creepy cop who's obsessed with numbers. 

I found the Dreamers somewhat Lovecraftian.

I actually quite like the Turbulent Expert, felt like an interesting concept with a tidy end where he found a successor. 

read: the anxious generation

Makes me very self-conscious for working for a social media firm.

Totally agree that kids these days are overprotected in the real world but underprotected in the virtual. should not be brainwashed by social media. And not just kids but also adults.

Interesting the different effect on boys and girls. Girls being more driven to be integrated in a community hence the obsession with social media and boys being more driven to build agency or competency hence obsession with gaming.

Doesn't feel like things will change soon so we are stuck with a generation of people who are highly anxious, overprotected and unable to function in the social world as we know it today.
