Given how badly I slacked in May, June hasn’t been looking much better, so I made a real effort this past week to get caught up on some theatrical releases. And then some!

The Boys 5th and Final Season
For a show that only produced 40 episodes, it’s kind of crazy that it took seven years for them all to come out. With that, I am also kind of sad that The Boys is over.

I don’t know why, but I have just been in the mood for quick reads these days.
