Review: How Solo: A Star Wars Story Novelization Made Me Love Solo: A Star Wars Story the Movie The Force is strong with this adaptation…and so is the hair care routine. Most Star Wars fans have their favorite movie, and probably a well-debated order in which they rank them. For […]
TV Thoughts: The Testaments by Margaret Atwood The Testaments premiered on Hulu this month and I have been sitting with it since it dropped. I read the book the week before and what drew me in was the thing Margaret Atwood does that the original Handmaid’s Tale does not quite […]
Movie Musings: This is Not a Test by Courtney Summers This Is Not a Test is the rare adaptation that understands the assignment so completely it almost feels like the book found a new language instead of being translated. Rather than sanding down Courtney Summers’ sharp edges, the film leans […]
Feature: Stranger Things Day Survival Kit The clock is ticking in Hawkins. On November 26, the final season of Stranger Things drops, and the endgame begins (😭). Stranger Things Day, today, marks the date Will Byers vanished in 1983, setting off a chain of events that would pull an entire […]
Feature: Watching Gilead From Here: The Handmaid’s Tale, Poster Girl, and the Problem of “After” I (finally) finished The Handmaid’s Tale series and felt that familiar whiplash: turn off the TV, turn back to real life, and realize they’re not that far apart.

Head’s up: I haven’t read any of the attached books (!) so I am going off the movie alone […]
Feature: What to Read After Watching The Mandalorian So. The Mandalorian has ended yet another incredible season and the next time he (and The Child) are going to grace our screens is at least a year from now. In fact, there’s a Tatooine desert level lack of visual media after […]
It’s Personal: Kelly & Christy Talk Supernatural TONGIHT, a show we’ve both been watching for 15 years will come to an end. Supernatural isn’t the first show each of us has watched from start to finish and I’m sure it won’t be the last. To me, it feels like the […]
Movie Musings: Chemical Hearts by Krystal Sutherland I fell in love with Our Chemical Hearts by Krystal Sutherland in July 2017. It was my “light and easy” comic con read…one that kept me so enraptured that I was late to comic con so I could finish it. It also left […]
