Mega Movie Weekend

I gave myself a long weekend, so that means a bunch of movies! While the weekend’s viewings started out light and fun, they eventually morphed into a more serious territory, which I really enjoyed! To be frank, none of these movies were bad, and there was one that rose above the rest, but you can’t go wrong adding any of these titles to your future watch-list.

New Music Monday

New singles have been dropping this early this year and I am so excited! And even better, by some of my favorite bands who have been MIA for a few years. As if 2020 hadn’t sucked enough all on its own, it didn’t really help that not a lot of music seemed to get released. As of now, I think that’s all about to change! At least for me, anyway! If you like rock, then keep reading to get some new singles in your life!

Book Review: The Guest List by Lucy Foley

What a multi-faceted web this mystery/thriller was?! Turns out Reese Witherspoon knows a thing or two about suspense novels. In Lucy Foley’s The Guest List, a group of people arrive at a very small Irish island in the middle of nowhere for, you guessed it, a wedding. Now of course there are rumors that this abandoned island is haunted, but most of the wedding party is just being haunted by their past. However, the past is both sad and violent

Fan Art Friday: The Dresden Dolls

The Dresden Dolls take me way back to my high school days. Back when bands were cool and creative and carefree. Just like The Dresden Dolls were! Comprising of lead vocalist Amanda Palmer and drummer Brian Viglione, The Dresden Dolls’ sound was what I, and many others, would describe as cabaret punk. They were wholly unique in their performances and showed a real passion in what they were producing. Also, they recently got back together! Hopefully there is some new music in the future, or at least a tour! Go familiarize yourself with “Backstabber” please!

Foo Fighters Medicine at Midnight Album Review

It’s Foo Fighters’ world and we’re just living in it! In pretty quick succession, the band released a couple of singles, performed on SNL and at Joe Biden’s inauguration, and then promptly dropped a new album’s worth of songs on us all. Oh, yeah, they also got their name on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame voting list this year! Quite a busy time for the band who have managed to make the best of a shitty situation. I know they’d be touring the world right now if they could.

Book Review: Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade

After seeing my friend’s gushing review about Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade, and she picked it as her monthly book purchase, I knew I had to read it myself. Her brief summary of its contents was all I needed to head to my local library and rent it. And I’m glad I did! This book has what I love about being a nerdy adult, but also coupling it with some very adult content and body positivity. What’s not to like?!

Weekly TV Roundup

I know it seems hard to believe, but I actually watched my weekly dramas on the nights they aired this week! Honestly, I’m as shocked as you are. Although, after the week and a half I’ve had, I almost needed the nightly escape that these shows bring me. Anyways, since Valentine’s Day is this weekend, it didn’t come as a surprise to me that one of these shows focused on love, while the others kept the drama high.

I Don’t Know How But They Found Me – Razzmatazz Album Review

Well folks, I feel like a full-length album from I Don’t Know How But They Found Me has been a long time coming. The band itself formed nearly five years ago, with the last new material coming in the form of a Christmas EP back in 2019. They finally put out a complete work entitled Razzmatazz, that seems stylistically different than their initial EP from 2018, 1981 Extended Play. I didn’t really love that EP, so I was hesitant and then pleasantly surprised when I finally sat down and get the album a listen!
