The Writer's LibrarySo, I finally saw Frozen II. I admit, I was on the fence about seeing it at first. Sequels tend to not be as good as the originals they’re based on, and then there’s the issue of the sequel having to both live up to the original film and be a strong enough story on […]
I admit, these past few months have been hell for me, but things are finally starting to look up! Long story short, I’m on break from school until next semester and, boy, did I need this! I can dedicate more time to reading for pleasure and writing. I’m so happy! One of the first things […]
So lately I’ve been listening to a lot of my favorite songs from the Disney Broadway musical Newsies. In my opinion, it’s one of the best musicals out there and, every now and again, I find myself rewatching and falling in love with it all over again. Now, I know some of you may not […]
Sorry I haven’t posted in a month. This semester is easily the hardest and most chaotic yet, giving me very little time to myself. I finally have a minute to sit down and breathe, so I thought I’d discuss something I’ve been mulling over a bit lately. I’ve been thinking a lot about the appeal […]
It Takes Death to Reach a Star by Stu Jones and Gareth Worthington. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. “‘Don’t throw your life away, Mila. We have one life to live, one life to give in the service of the Lightbringer. Use yours to make a difference.’‘Very poetic Bilgi, but–’ The old man gently touches my […]
The Omega’s Rebellion by Sierra Christenson. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. “Vanessa may be weak, but her purity gives me an opportunity to corrupt her. She may be on the Alphas’ side, but that will not last for very long. I will give her a taste of true power and watch it destroy her. […]
Unparalleled by D.S. Smith. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. “He remembered falling. Falling forward into darkness, spinning and tumbling as he fell. No sound, no light, just falling. And the sickness, he remembered the sickness in his stomach. He felt it now. He leaned over and retched but nothing came out. With some effort […]
Part I here. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Day ???? I’ve left the island. It was a risk, but I had to do it. I spent a long time building this raft I’m sitting on, and my work has been rewarded with relatively calm seas so far. The little disheveled puppy cuddles up to me, sheltering himself from the […]
So, I know I don’t talk very much about television, but there’s something eating at me that I can no longer remain silent about. It’s been all over social media and I need to let my voice be heard, because what I am about to talk about is infuriating to me, and I feel the […]
I know it’s been forever since I’ve written something on here. I promise that will change, as I’m finally out of school. In the meantime, I think I want to take a look back at my relationship with reading for this post and share why it’s so special to me. Stories have become my comfort […]
