For whatever reason, Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo took me a lifetime to read! And I’m mad at myself for it, because it was a good book! Life just got in the way, but I did finally finish this extremely popular young adult novel the other day.

New Movie Weekend
Before you all get your panties in a bunch, I will be seeing Spider-Man: No Way Home in the next couple of days. It just didn’t make the cut this weekend. But, the films that did make the cut were all pretty dang good, and two of them were supporting independent film!
Read moreFan Art Friday: Jennifer Lawrence
Alright, technically it’s not Friday, but it’s still fine for me to post some deserving fan art! I would like to point out though that this is some throwback fan art, as I’m currently in the middle of a new drawing you’ll have to wait and see next week. With Don’t Look Up in select theaters and hitting Netflix next week, I figured it was a great time to welcome Jennifer Lawrence back into the fold of acting after she took some time off the last couple of years. I can’t wait to see this movie, and I especially can’t wait to see Lawrence on screen again. Who knows, maybe soon she’ll get a new drawing, too!
Read moreYou Season 3 Review
What a wild ride You has gone on. I’ve come to terms with the fact that the show is not going to follow Caroline Kepnes’ books to the T, so I was able to enjoy this ride a little more. With that being said, I felt like this season did honor Kepnes’ latest novel a lot better than I was expecting.

It was a pretty average viewing this weekend, but fear not! It’s the calm before the holiday weekend storm, so I more than plan to make up for it in my next recap. Anyways, here’s a high level look at what I managed to watch this weekend.

Somehow I managed to squeeze in a respectable number of movies this weekend. Turns out they were all pretty decent, too!
Read moreFan Art Friday: Vanessa Kirby
I’m sure most of the world knows Vanessa Kirby from The Crown, but given that I try to avoid things related to the royals, she came into my orbit with last year’s critically acclaimed and Oscar nominated film Pieces of a Woman. She even got nominated! During this second year of the pandemic, I got the chance to catch her in an eerie drama called Italian Studies during the Tribeca Film Festival. Everyone else will have to wait until January to feast your eyes on it. I’d say with those performances in the bag she’s got a bright and magnetic future ahead of her. I look forward to what she puts out next!
Read moreBook Review: Hemlock Grove by Brian McGreevy
What a weird little book this was. I’ve been meaning to watch the show Hemlock Grove that was based off of this novel by Brian McGreevy for quite some time, but running across the book at the library unexpectedly, finally inspired me!
Read moreManic Movie Review
Truth be told, I didn’t watch any movies last week because I was busy being in the background of one! That’s all I can say for now, but as soon as I can share more I will. In order to make up for that oversight, I’ve stuffed as many movies as I possibly could into this last full week of October. Some spooky stuff, some not, but all pretty darn good!
Read moreClickbait Miniseries Review
This dramatic and thrilling Netflix miniseries came seemingly out of nowhere. One day it wasn’t there, and the next I see Adrian Grenier’s face with something that looks dark and twisted. Of course, when I learn that Zoe Kazan and Betty Gabriel are in it, too, it became a no-brainer to watch it! Also, with a name like Clickbait, it seems almost impossible that it won’t get watched. This 8-episode miniseries takes a unique storytelling approach with some shocking reveals along the way. Let’s dive in!
