Vampires were one of my true horror loves, and something about them draws me in even now. So with that, I thought it’d be funContinueContinue reading “Topic: 5* Vampire Books”

That Dreaded TBR #29
I can’t believe I’ve done 29 of these. And with…a stupid amount of books on my TBR, it’ll be a long time before I’m actually done with it. Which is good, because I do enjoy going back through the books I was interested in and seeing if my tastes have shifted away. In a lotContinueContinue reading “That Dreaded TBR #29”
Films: Encanto
I seriously cannot stop thinking about this film. Between writing this and it being posted, I may actually end up watching it again. I do need to re-watch it – it’s the type of film that deserves to be seen repeatedly. As well as the film apparently setting camp in my head 24/7, I alsoContinueContinue reading “Films: Encanto”

TV: It’s a Sin [LGBT+ History Month]
History is important. And there are so many different kinds of history we aren’t even aware of, which the public has barely even been exposed to. February in the UK is LGBT+ History Month, and if you dig just a little, it’s easy to see why exactly LGBT+ history needs to be highlighted. For thoseContinueContinue reading “TV: It’s a Sin [LGBT+ History Month]”
That Dreaded TBR #28
Let’s see if we can get rid of more books, shall we? Most of these have been, for a while, from August 2013, which seems like an exceptionally long time ago now. That was not a good month for me, so maybe I sought comfort by scrolling through Goodreads and pretending I actually had timeContinueContinue reading “That Dreaded TBR #28”
