Baby Reindeer | What Are You Watching?!
I had been looking for something new to watch. Then I saw some posts on Instagram on how there was a crazy new show based on a true story and I was intrigued. I headed straight to Netflix… And I really didn’t move for several hours. This is the creator of the show’s true story,…

The Christmas Fix | The Book Nook
We’re clearly well past the Christmas season. This just goes to show you… I am the world’s slowest reader. I had taken a bunch of photos of Christmas-y-looking books at a local bookstore back during the holiday season and then went to look at what was available on my new Christmas present to myself, a…

What’s Love Got to Do With It | Movie Night
This was another plane ride watch. I had back-to-back Westernized brown movies. Wasn’t mad about it. I actually had heard of this one as well, but felt like it was even less advertised than Polite Society. Not entirely sure this even came out in theaters. I’ll start with the pros. It’s a light and easy…

The Brother’s Sun | What Are You Watching?!
Decision fatigue is so real when it comes to watching TV. I feel like we’re so close to just going back to how it used to be and I’m kind of waiting for it. Like I just saw that my Amazon Prime Video will have ads now, even though I have Amazon Prime… It’s going…

Polite Society | Movie Night
Along with a bunch of new food reviews from my latest trip, I have a few movie reviews too. If there’s a good selection of in-flight entertainment, I’m set. If we are being honest, I don’t remember what I watched on the way to Amsterdam. I don’t recall there were a whole lot of options,…

One Italian Summer | The Book Nook
If you are a Libby user, I just recently found out that there is a way to search for books that are immediately available. Because I had reached my max amount of book holds. They come available quick though, I totally got overwhelmed with the amount that kept coming. But when I was waiting, I…

The Unfortunate Side Effects of Heartbreak and Magic | The Book Nook
I’m still feeling out the audiobooks. I’ve mentioned in previous posts, that it’s easier for me to listen when I have some familiarity with the book or series. So sometimes with my audiobooks, I get a bit lost, especially if I’m not fully paying attention at the beginning. So I will caveat that may have…

The Queen of Nothing | The Book Nook
Ya’ll I don’t even know why I kept up with this series… By the time this post goes live, I’ve also listened to one of the in-between books, How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories, which I won’t be posting on since it’s the same sentiment. The Wicked King ends on a cliffhanger…

A Court of Thornes and Roses | The Book Nook
I actually read this book a year or so ago. If you are familiar with this book, you know that it’s the first in a series. I knew this and had the second one coming, but held off so long that I forgot the majority of what happened, and then when I went to the…

The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches | The Book Nook
I’m happy this was one of the books that kept getting BookTok recommended to me. This review is a bit late in the game because I picked up the book for Spooky Season, only got to it after Halloween, and then finished it probably about a month ago. So it’s been a minute, but it…

My Life with the Walter Boys | What Are You Watching?!
Donna pulled me in, but she wasn’t around enough to keep me to stay. I went on Netflix to find something to watch and I saw Miss Sarah Rafferty on the recommender (Donna of Suits), and I clicked play. I gave it a good chance. I really did. I got through to the first few…
