I squeaked through one more book before I high-tailed it to my local library to get the sequel to Ellie Marney’s None Shall Sleep, Some Shall Break. I think this is also the quickest I read through anything this year. Usually, I take my sweet time, reading about fifty pages a day, but I just couldn’t get through this fast enough!

End of October Movie Review
Gosh, I’ve been traveling a bunch and seriously slacking on reviews! Though don’t think that means I didn’t watch any movies – that would be foolish!
Read moreTruth Be Told – Final Season Review
Though it wasn’t expected to be, the third season of Truth Be Told was its final one, and it tackled even more tough issues.
Read moreBook Review: The Dirty Secrets Club by Meg Gardiner
The Dirty Secrets Club by Meg Gardiner is a book that came into my life via a sale at my local library last summer. At the time, I was in the midst of a new Karen McManus novel, and the name of this book with the red cover looked just like something she would put out.
Read moreBook Review: For You and Only You by Caroline Kepnes
I…think I’m kind of over the whole You universe brought to us by Caroline Kepnes. It’s in that weird stage now where the show is a season ahead and not at all what the latest novel, For You and Only You, was about. Granted, I have no clue what Kepnes’ involvement with the show is and I realize that most adaptations don’t follow the source material closely at all, but still. It’s odd.

I’ve finally decided to start working through all the books I’ve bought myself over the years that have been sitting on me shelf untouched. This novel by M.T. Edvardsson, like most of my other purchases, have been bargain bin finds, with blurbs intriguing enough for me to purchase. A Nearly Normal Family fit that mold, with its unsettling mystery at the center.
Read moreFull Circle Miniseries Review
I suppose Steven Soderbergh’s latest miniseries, Full Circle, has double meaning in its title. The first is that events from the past are coming back around again some twenty years later and the other is literal circles. We’ll get into that, though.
Read moreKinnPorsche The Series La Forte – Season 1 Review
Alright, I know probably nothing of that name makes a lot of sense, and it didn’t make any sense to me either when the Youtube algorithm presented some fan made clip to me. Well, the contents of the clip and a quick Google search was all the convincing I needed to give the Thai crime drama, KinnPorsche The Series La Forte, a chance.
Read moreBook Review: The Midnight Witness by Sara Blaedel
Sometimes you win with bargain book purchases, but sometimes you find mediocre ones. This was one of those times. Again, I’m not saying anything was outright bad with Sara Blaedel’s novel, The Midnight Witness, but I’d say if you ask me next month what this was about I couldn’t tell you much of anything.
Read moreTribeca Film Festival (at Home) 2023
It took some back brain searching, but I do remember the Tribeca Film Festival having a rather disappointing At Home section last year. This year’s offerings are slightly more robust, and there were some gems to be had. Be on the lookout for these films later this year.
