• Top 5 TCM Books

  I went on a bit of a Turner Classic Movie (TCM) book binge last year. Movies are my second favorite thing to reading and I loved reading their collection to find out behind the scenes facts and movie analyses. So here are my top 5 favorites. The Making of Gone with the Wind by Steve…

• Top 5 Ann M. Martin Books

  Main Street I literally read this series 10 years in a row, every summer. It’s just so comforting and wholesome. It starts with the orphaned Northrop sisters, Flora and Ruby who are taken to live with their grandmother, Min (short for in a minute) in Camden Falls, MA. It’s not so tragic as they’ve been…

• Top 5 Archie Comic Collections

  Man from R.I.V.E.R.D.A.L.E. No, not the collection of Archie spy stories from the 60s, but it was certainly inspired by it. Updated for the present in a mishmash of James Bond homage, R.I.V.E.R.D.A.L.E. roots and Archie hijinks by Fernando Ruiz and Tom DeFalco. I enjoyed the throwbacks to Little Archie by having the villainous Mad…

• Top 4 Meg Cabot books

  Girl meet Boy series This fun, frothy romcom series is written entirely in epistolotory form. meaning that it’s written in emails, texts, and such. No prose, which makes it a very fast read as the characters swap gossip, get into miscommunications and get sexy. The romances all share small-town girls falling for outsider city boys,…

• Top 5 Mangas

  Aka the only five I’ve read, but I still highly enjoyed them. Inuyasha by Rumiko Takahashi The first first anime I watched and this year, I finally got to devour the original manga and it is just as good. Seriously Inuyasha has it all, action, romance, lore, and great character dynamics and relationships. They’re all…
