Upcoming 2019 Funko Pops!
As the site suggests, I’ve been a geek forever. I’ve collected Funko Pops! for several years. Back around 2013, I got my very first Pop!: Daenerys Targaryen (Mother of Dragons, Breaker of Chains, etc. etc.) circa season 2 of Game of Thrones. Even though she CONSTANTLY FELL OVER, I loved having her on my shelf. […]

Is Dark Phoenix Any Good?
Now that the Avengers capped off their story arc with Avengers: Endgame, I went in search of more superhero/comic-book movie goodness. With the release of Dark Phoenix, my brother and I decided we wanted to go through all of the X-Men movies. I’d seen the “original” movies with Patrick Stewart, Sir Ian McKellan, and Hugh […]

Today’s post features a bookish one-time box from Fae Crate. I have never ordered a subscription box that featured a bookish theme.

Top 5 Favorite YA Book Covers (so far)
I love books. I know, what a shocker. You’re shocked. I love everything about reading and books in general. Especially the covers. Yeah, yeah, “don’t judge a book by its cover”, blah, blah, blah.

NaNoWriMo Mid-Month Update!
So, here’s the thing. I’ve tried to do Nanowrimo a few times in the past. I think it was two years ago that I spent all of October outlining in the hopes of hitting that golden 50,000 word count goal. However, this hasn’t happened yet. I know, I know. It should be about starting your […]
