This was a month that had its ups, downs, and in-betweens for sure. I loved The Haunting of Hill House so much and it was one reread that not only held up but surpassed my previous experience. Slade House and The Woman in Black had their flaws but were still enjoyable reads. And then there […]
In my Hill House review I stated that I rarely reread books and of course, since I put that out into the universe, the fates aligned, and I’m now rereading my second book this month. I was in a pinch and Slade House fits the parameters I was shooting for with this month’s theme. Every […]
After the events that filled the first month of the year, I don’t know about you but I was glad for some good escapism literature. When faced with the deep flaws of humanity I needed a break at points to read and write about heroes and books, with a hopeful vision. I wanted to use […]
I’m still shocked that 2020 is finally coming to an end. I know that 2021 isn’t going to magically change anything, but I’m more hopeful that the end of 2021 will be better than its beginning. Can’t say the same for this year. Out of the 38 books I’ve read (so far) these are my […]
Happy Holidays! We’re now in the full swing of the season here in the states and with that I get to write the posts I look forward to all year. I’m a product of my time and dang it, I love a good list. December is the time to indulge with my ‘best of the […]
We got a smorgasbord this week! Before I get to my wrap for October and November, I wanted to touch on some of my two of my favorite elements of horror along with a favorite means of enjoying horror stories. I didn’t think these needed their own posts to explore but I still wanted to […]
Time for a couple short reviews! Last month I mostly read sci-fi but I was able to sneak in a new haunted house thriller that came out this year. Home Before Dark – Riley Sager As a child, Maggie Holt and her parents move into Baneberry Manor and before a month passes her family are […]
Over the summer I decided to stop blogging for a while. I felt like I was going through the same cycle and was just stuck. I wasn’t giving myself the time I needed to figure out how I wanted to go forward and if I wanted to write anymore. One of the books I read […]
Dear Reader, I was working my way through April and it seemed like my anxiety and depression were easing down. I entered May hopeful, but I could feel the despair at the edge of my mind. I thankfully at this time recieved Animal Crossing as an early birthday present and have dived deep into the […]
A week ago the nominations for the 2020 Hugo Awards were announced and I’m ready to start reading! The Hugo Awards is probably one of the more well known Science Fiction and Fantasy awards, with its Award Ceremony being one of the highlights ofWorldCon. This year I want to read (and watch) all the selections […]
