Movie Review: The Menu (2022)
Have you ever left a movie so flabbergasted and upset because you’ll never be able to experience it for a first time again? I’m sure you have, we all have experienced such a movie a few times if we’re lucky, and when I went and saw The Menu it left me feeling just that. Synopsis …
Game Review: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet
I cannot say that I’ve been a hardcore Pokémon gamer since the beginning. My console journey started with my parents’ Atari…yes, you read that correctly, an Atari. I didn’t get an actual console for myself, handheld or otherwise, until I was around thirteen, and I’m in the low thirties now. From the Atari I jumped …
Relyks & Wolfcraft: Where I’ve Been, Where I’m Going
I’ve not been present of late, and for that I’m sorry. Sorry to what few readers I have, and sorry to myself as well. This post really is just an explanation of what’s been going on, a vent about frustrations with what I’m trying to do with this blog, and a framework for going forward. …
Book Review: The Black Tulip by Alexandre Dumas
When a passionate young man is falsely accused of a crime and thrown into prison, you have the makings of an Alexandre Dumas novel. Now, this was only the second Dumas novel I have ever read, so the before mentioned statement was a most likely an exaggeration. That being said I was slightly surprised to …
Book Review: Bullet Train by Kotaro Isaka
Beautifully orchestrated chaos. That is Bullet Train in three words. Did I pick up this book because I watched the 2022 film by the same title? Yes, yes I did. To be fair, I honestly had no idea it was a book until the end credits of the film were rolling. As soon as I …
Book Review: Neon Gods by Katee Robert
This is a Spoiler Free review Have you ever loved a story or a couple so much that you’d take reading their tale over and over again as long as there were some changes between each edition? Well that’s how I feel about Hades and Persephone. Back when I was in high school (we’re talking …
My Review of Book Lovers by Emily Henry
If you weren’t already aware, I adore books about books. I don’t know why. I’ve heard some people complain about such books, saying they’re lazy writing or not interesting, but I am drawn to them. Give me books about bookshops, books about writers, and anything in between. I’ll take a chance on it. So when …
My Review and Breakdown of A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas
Well, this one certainly was a ride for me. Nesta, though a strong character, has never been my favorite. She always rubbed me as the prideful, toxic, witch. And I’m using witch here, but know when I say it I actually am meaning B*tch. And yes, that’s capitalized on purpose. When I learned that A …
My Review of A Court of Frost and Starlight
This is going to be a short one, because hey, guess what, it’s a novella. It’s also going to be a spoiler free review, due to the fact that I’m trying to be considerate of those who may not have read this book yet, as well as the fact that I have nothing substantial to …
