Stay Sexy and Don’t Get Murdered Review
Even though it always gives me nightmares of cannibals and murderers, my roommate got me addicted to the My Favorite Murder podcast by Georgia Hardstark and Karen Kilgariff. Worst idea to listen before bed, but it’s a nice background noise during homework.

The Mortal Instruments Series Lookback
Originally I was going to write one huge post after I finished all of Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunter universe books, but as it has been almost four years and I still have two books to go, I figured I should start writing now as I’m forgotting some of my original thoughts after four years. These things…

Girls on Film Review
Alicia Malone loves classic films and this memoir/film guide (more memoir than film guide though) shines a light on that abudently. As she says, people like to think of their lives as movies.

Disney Descendants: School of Secrets Review
Unlike my post on the Isle of the Lost, this one will be an actual review of the series overall. Unlike the Isle of the Lost series, this has some leeway in escaping continuity issues. They are not to set up movie plots or examine the main characters. This focuses on side characters that appear…

A Frozen Heart Review
As we all know when a popular movie comes out, we must have the movie in novelization form. How else will we learn what the characters are thinking? Even though it’s basically a rehash of what we already saw onscreen. Well, Elizabeth Rudnick’s book takes a creative angle in simply focusing on the point of…
