I love a good young adult book from time to time, and what drew me first to Nick Brooks’ Promise Boys, was the stark contrasting cover. In a bright red you see three boys, but then the eyes have been torn out and you can see that they are boys of color. That gives this murder mystery another layer of intrigue.

My Personal Weatherman – Series Review
My Personal Weatherman has been hovering at near the top of my watch-list for quite some time, but I’ve just been too stingy to pay Viki to watch it. It finally happened thanks to a stockpile of shows I’ve been itching to see on there and this series did not disappoint!
Read moreLove in the Big City – Series Review
Though this did come out later in the year, I sure did take my sweet time to check out one of the most well received BLs of 2024, Love in the Big City.

But before checking it out I was wondering to myself if it had anything to do with the Bryan Cranston series of the same name. Being just lazy enough, I never actually looked any of that up.
