Transcript – The Angel of Indian Lake by Stephen Graham Jones

I dislike his writing and I hated this series. I read all 3 books to give it a chance, even though I disliked his other work I read. The main character is just so annoying to me. Secret because everyone I know who read him loves his work and I only see praise for him online too. To me he writes girls very much from a guy’s pov. I also think he wrote from that pov to make the series popular.

Bonus secrets – 1. He described Sidney Prescott from Scream as *all brawn* which is so factually incorrect and makes me think he has disdain for girls showing emotion. 2. I see the same people who heap praise on him for writing girls (not women) say it’s weird that Grady Hendrix writes as women. But it’s a double standard and annoying too.

I haven't read that particular series. So far he's been hit or miss for me-- Night of the Mannequin I didn't think was *bad* but I didn't love it. Meanwhile, I DID love The Only Good Indians and thought he nailed the teen girl protagonist in that once we moved into her POV, and I adored her.

I'll have to see where this one falls for me-- I get you on your complaint about his description of Sidney Prescott, though.

I also agree it's weird and annoying that people will praise Stephen Graham Jones for writing girls but malign Grady Hendrix for writing women (and girls)-- again, what I have read of his female protagonists I have loved! But I haven't read every book yet.

Also thank you for the transcript.
