I promise you, Top Gun will for sure be happening next week. Instead, I watched a refreshing eclectic mix of new films this weekend.

Book Review: Breakfast with Scot by Michael Downing
On a whim a couple of weeks ago, I rented a 2005 comedy-drama, Breakfast with Scot, and was immediately taken with it. The film was warm, charming, comical, and oddly topical for 2005. After watching the film, naturally I looked it up online and found that it was based off a book by the same name written by Michael Downing. After that, it took me all of ten seconds before I had a request out for it at my local library.
Read moreBook Review: The Hating Game by Sally Thorne
Since watching the film adaptation a few weeks ago of Sally Thorne’s novel of the same name, The Hating Game, I’ve been stalking my local library for the book. Now that I’ve had the chance to read it, let’s compare.

I know this book got added to my must read list once I finished with Normal People, but now that a television adaptation for Sally Rooney’s novel Conversations with Friends is coming to Hulu at the end of the month, I finally sat down and read the novel!
Read moreMoon Knight Review
In preparation for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, I figured it’d be wise to be up to speed on all things Marvel. That means I “binge watched” all six episodes of Moon Knight since the finale aired this past week on Disney+. Now, did I know if this show would have any crossover with the latest film? No, but anything is possible.
Read moreHeartstopper – Season 1
I saw this half hour, British, coming-of-age rom com advertised to me a number of places over the past couple of weeks, but Heartstopper just looked like something a little too young for my taste. That was a stupid assumption and statement to make because I watch high school centered crap all the time!
