Adam Christopher's I Only Killed Him Once (2018)
from Out of Order Book Club · host Mal Bernhardt
Welcome to the fourth episode of Out of Order Book Club. In this episode, Mal will be looking at 'I Only Killed Him Once' by New York Times bestselling author Adam Christopher. This is the third book in his LA Trilogy about Ray Electromatic. In this episode, Mal has a problem pronouncing 'tarmacadam', uses the phrase 'ruthlessly efficient' a bit too much, feels a strong connection as an 'out of order' reader with Ray and questions whether she is an 'aspiring writer' or just thinking about being one.Podcast content: Some swearingYou can find Mal on Blue Sky: @outoforderbookclub.bsky.socialUseful Links and helpful sources:Adam Christopher's websitePage One Podcast interview with Adam ChristopherCereal at Midnight interview with Adam Christopher - Short and sweet reminder of a key skill for being a working writer. I need to learn this and I'm sure I'm not the only one!OED definition of 'tarmacadam' - Error Correction: In the podcast I say the first usage of the word was in a Bradford publication, but the OED says the Time of London in 1910s. I have left the error in there out of pure stubbornness (and the rabbit hole I went down)!
