Guns N’ Roses + James Patterson Collab Picture Book
Crime author James Patterson’s imprint Jimmy Patterson Books and the band Guns N’ Roses have collaborated on a children’s picture book. The book, named after one of the band’s famous songs, follows the adventures of their manager’s niece and nephew who grew up on the road touring with the band. You can pre-order Sweet Child o’ Mine, which will publish in September and is illustrated by Jennifer Zivoin.
Christopher Pike + Netflix
The Midnight Club by Christopher Pike is being adapted into a Netflix series by the team that created The Haunting of Bly Manor, the followup to The Haunting of Hill House adaptation. Pike is known for his teen horror novels in the ’90s that, at least in my experience, had middle school and elementary students daring each other to read the books. Chain Letter was no joke!
