Critical Hits & Misses #81



  • One of the best queer YA novels on the market, The Miseducation of Cameron Post, is coming to the big screen, and Autostraddle has the deets on whose been cast! (Tova)

  • Queen of Rebel Awesome Carrie Fisher is releasing a new memoir, and she takes the time to talk to Rolling Stone about LSD, death, and oh yeah, that affair with Harrison Ford. (Ivonne)

  • Today in weird Canadian news: the police on Prince Edward Island threaten potential drunk drivers with unusual (YMMV on whether it's cruel) punishment: being forced to listen to local band Nickelback. (Critical Writ staff)

For today's musical hit, if you haven't seen Disney's Moana, what the heck are you waiting for? It is amazing and perfect! Until then, though, listen to the fabulous Auli'i Cravalho sing "How Far I'll Go." (Ivonne)
